L. Lanotte et al., Coexistence of very soft magnetism and good magnetoelastic coupling in theamorphous alloy Fe62.5Co6Ni7.5Zr6Cu1Nb2B15, J MAGN MAGN, 215, 2000, pp. 276-279
Amorphous ferromagnetic ribbons in a new composition were prepared by melt
spinning. The alloy components were calibrated in order to obtain a very so
ft magnetic material that, after proper annealing, represents giant amplitu
de of the resonant magnetoacoustic waves, at zero magnetising field. The ma
in characteristic of the new material are reported with regard to the hyste
resis cycle, the annealing effect on the structure and the dynamic magnetoe
lastic coupling. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
