Abstract
Nanocrystalline (Fe1-xCox)(90)Zr7B2Cu1 (0 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 0.6) alloys were investigated by x-ray diffraction, Fe-57 Moss bauer spectroscopy, and magnetic measurements. The grain size did not chang e significantly with composition. Co was preferentially partitioned to the residual amorphous phase, and the bcc grains were accordingly enriched by F e. The room-temperature coercive field increased with the Co addition, whic h is attributed to the increasing magnetostriction constant. (C) 2000 Ameri can Institute of Physics. [S0003-6951(00)03215-0].
