Rp. Delreal et al., MAGNETIC-ANISOTROPY INDUCED BY NANOCRYSTALLIZATION OF A COATED AMORPHOUS ALLOY, Journal of magnetism and magnetic materials, 131(1-2), 1994, pp. 183-188
In this work the influence of a sputtered coating (SiO2) on a FeSiCuNb
B amorphous alloy has been studied from two points of view: the effect
on the nanocrystallization process and the effect on the magnetic pro
perties. It is shown that after heat treatment (550-degrees-C for 1 h)
a magnetic anisotropy normal to the ribbon axis appears due to anelas
tic strains.
