Popis: Structure and magnetic properties of melt-spun Nix(Fe0.5Co0.5)73.5−xSi13.5B9Nb3Cu alloys (x = 5,10,15,20,25,30) annealed at different temperatures were investigated. Microstructure has been analyzed from XRD patterns. Magnetic properties were mainly studied by the evolution of initial permeability from room temperature to 740 °C. All the 500 °C–annealed samples gave rise to an ultrafine structure composed of a residual amorphous matrix andα-FeCoNi(Si) crystals (tens of nanometers in size). It was found that Ni content had a significant impact on the Curie temperature of amorphous phaseTcam and initial permeabilityμi. There was a general reduced tendency ofTcam with Ni content increasing. For higher Ni content alloys (x≥25) annealed at 500 °C, theμi can be enhanced to the order of 104, which is much higher than that of Ni-free FeCo-based Finemet-type alloys. The reason for the enhancement inμi was systematically analyzed in terms of the effective anisotropy model.
