This article surveys amorphous and nanocrystalline alloys for soft magnetic applications.
Both materials have much in common, starting from the technique of production and …

Soft magnetic composites (SMCs) are a crucial material in the process of electromagnetic
conversion, playing a critical role in power production, transmission and utilization. Third …

High saturation magnetic flux density (Bs) of soft magnetic materials is essential for
increasing the power density of modern magnetic devices and motor machines. Yet …

The existence of magnetic domains arises from the action of several interactions present in
magnetic materials, mainly exchange, anisotropy, and dipolar. This chapter deals with some …

Volume 15 of the Handbook on the Properties of Magnetic Materials, as the preceding
volumes, has a dual purpose. As a textbook it is intended to be of assistance to those who …

Nanocrystalline alloys that exhibit grain boundary segregation can access
thermodynamically stable or metastable states with the average grain size dictated by the …

Hierarchically three-dimensional (3D) micro-nanostructures have promising applications in
multifarious fields. Herein, we report a general strategy, that is, in situ catalysis process, for …

Atomistic computer simulations are used to investigate the equilibrium solute distribution
and alloying energetics in nanocrystalline Ni–W. Composition and grain size-dependent …

Abstract Rapid annealing (4–10 s) induced primary crystallization of soft magnetic Fe–Si
nanocrystals in a Fe 73.5 Si 15.5 Cu 1 Nb 3 B 7 amorphous alloy has been systematically …

We present an overview of the factors as well as post processing tools allowing optimization
of magnetic softness and GMI effect of rapidly quenched materials: microwires and ribbons …
