Nanocrystalline HITPERM alloys Fe44.6Co43.3X7.4B3.7Cu1 (X = Nb,
Zr, Hf) prepared by crystallization of amorphous precursors are studied
by magnetization and electrical resistivity measurements for the first
time. Structural and magnetic components of the electrical resistivity
are separated. The electrical resistivity of the nanocrystalline α′
(FeCo) phase calculated using the Maxwell–Garnett relation proves strong
electron scattering on the grain boundaries. The temperature variation of the
crystalline fraction during the first crystallization stage is calculated for the Hf
based alloy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
