Popis: Fe 76.5− x Nb x Si 15.5 B 7 Au 1 ribbons ( x =0.0, 1.5, 3.0, 4.5) have been fabricated by rapid quenching technique. The DSC measurements indicated that both first exothermal peak T p1 (of α -Fe(Si) phase) and second peak T p2 (of boride phase) as well as crystallization activation energy increase with increasing Nb content substituted, whereas saturation magnetization of samples decreases with x , due to ferromagnetic dilution. Besides, Curie temperature of amorphous phase decreases with x , i.e. Nb stabilizes amorphous structure of ribbons. The investigation of magnetic entropy change of studied samples showed that it may lead to magnetocaloric effect around respective Curie temperature of amorphous phase.
