The formation of nanoscale damage cavity structure is a main characteristic morphology on the fracture surfaces. Approaching the ribbon boundary, these damage cavities assemble and form the nanoscale periodic corrugations, which are neither Wallner lines nor crack front waves. The periodic corrugations result from the interactions between the reflected elastic waves by the boundaries of amorphous ribbon and the stress fields of the crack tip.展开更多

The mechanism of oxides formation of the amorphous ribbons was discussed in detail. The results showed that the oxides were mostly B2O3 , SiO2 and Fe2O3 or FeO. With the increase of annealing time and holding temperature, the fraction of the oxides on the ribbon surface increased and the size of the oxides became larger due to the generation of new oxides and the coalescence of small oxides. The oxides have different shapes, such as round, rod and needle-shaped. Experimental results also showed that the oxides nucleated at fish scale, air pocket and impu-rities in priority, and the growth of the oxides was controlled by the diffusion of atoms. With the increase of the distance to the ribbon surface, the oxygen concentration decreased dramatically. Due to the low binding energy of B2O3 and the large diffusion coefficient of B atom, the B elemaent was oxidized firstly compared with other elements. More- over, the oxidation deoths of the B2O3 and SiO2 were larger than that of Fe2O3.展开更多

The complex permeability spectra varies sensitively with the annealing energy, where the spectra could be decomposed into two contributions from domain wall motion,μdw(f) and rotational magnetization μrot(f) by analyzing the measured spectra as a function of driving ac field amplitude. The magnitude of μdw(f) and μrot(f) in dc limit shows maximum at Ea = 176 mJ. The maximum relaxation frequency for rotational magnetization, determined by μ'(f) curve, is about 700 kHz at Ea=62 mJ but that for wall motion is about 26 kHz at 230 mJ. These variations reflect the increase of magnetic softness and microstructural change by the annealing.展开更多

The results showed that the GSI effect changed drastically with annealing techniques and the maximum stress impedance ratio of 350% was obtained after optimal conditions of current annealing. The behaviors of the stress impedance vary with densities of annealing current and the stress longitudinally applied during current annealing. The maximum change of stress impedance existed in the sample annealed by high-current-density electropulsing under applied stress of 100 MPa.展开更多

The properties of the lap-wound cores of the two kinds of ribbons are similar. For the composite ribbons, the intrinsic properties are the average of the two alloys. Their technological properties, i.e., hysteresis loops, however, are no longer the average of the two alloys. Instead, they show some dramatic changes compared to the lap-wound-cores. Especially, the shape of the hysteresis loop of the composite ribbon cores is largely different from that of lap-wound-cores. The reason for the difference is supposed to be internal stress induced from cooling after annealing.展开更多

The structure, magnetic properties and magnetocaloric effect （MCE） of these alloys were investigated. The prepared samples have shown the characteristics of a second-order phase transition with zero hysteresis loss and the Tc can be tuned by changing the Fe contents. For the different compositions, the magnetic entropy change （-△Sm） for a field change of 0-5 T reached a maximum value of 7.14 J kg 1 K1 in the Gd70A120Fel0 alloy near its Curie temperature （To） of 149 K. The non-linear composition dependence of （- △ Sin） could be caused by the competitions between Fe-Fe, Fe-Gd and Gd-Gd interactions. The refrigeration capacity （RC） values of these al- loys are about 532-780 J/kg under a magnetic field change of 0-5 T. The results indicate that amorphous GdFeA1 alloys can be considered as ideal candidates for a magnetic refrigerant in the temperature range of 104-222 K.展开更多
