R. Grossinger et al., HIGH-TEMPERATURE BEHAVIOR OF FINEMET RIBBONS IN THE AMORPHOUS AND IN THE NANOCRYSTALLINE STATE, IEEE transactions on magnetics, 31(6), 1995, pp. 3883-3885
Fe73.5Cu1Nb3Si13.5B9 ribbons were studied in the amorphous as well as
in the nanocrystalline state. For characterizing the quenching rate, t
he disaccommodation and the temperature coefficient of the electrical
resistivity were used. The temperature dependence of the coercivity in
the amorphous state was analysed using a two-ion model. The temperatu
re dependence of the coercivity In the nanocrystalline state shows a m
aximum above the ordering temperature of the amorphous matrix, which i
s related to the amount of nanocrystals.
