Origin of the perpendicular anisotropy in amorphousFe82B12

Abstract: The magnetic anisotropy in amorphous Fes28j2Si6 (METGLAS~2605S) has been studied by the determination of both surface and bulk properties using Mossbauer, x-ray, and density measurements.Upon annealing above 650 K, a substantial anisotropy with an easy direction perpendicular to the rib/on plane develops. It is proposed that the origin of this out-of-plane anisotropy, also observed for other amorphous ribbons, is a compressive stress from the formation of higher-density crystalline surface layers. The compress… Show more

“…2. The onset of crystallization at the sample surface, occurring at lower annealing temperatures (TA) than the bulk crystallization temperatures (Ti), can be interpreted in a similar way as in earlier studies of the surface crystallization of conventional amorphous alloys [14,15]. Most probably some boron atoms escape from the surface region during melt spinning process and during annealing.…”

“…And then we can obtain the best fit for the amorphous phase at θ = 0.0293 • . This means that the amorphous phase has a perpendicular anisotropy like Fe 82 B 12 Si 6 (METGLAS) produced by melt spinning [8].…”

“…Anyhow, the contribution of two types of magnetic anisotropies could be discerned: (i) uniaxial anisotropy, which results from the shape anisotropy, and (ii) fourfold anisotropy, which results from the presence of crystallites (in bcc arrangement), embedded in the residual amorphous matrix. Indeed, it is important to mention that (i) the magnetic texture is not homogeneous in an amorphous alloy and is rather perpendicular to the ribbon plane for Fe containing alloys, because of the positive magnetostriction [5], (ii) the surface displays a crystalline fraction larger than that of the bulk [14] which (iii) thus favours a perpendicular magnetic texture [15]. Table 2 summarizes the refined quantities, namely isotropic K 0 , fourfold K 1 , and uniaxial K u anisotropy constants and respective angles ϕ 1 and ϕ u which characterise the orientations of the anisotropy axes.…”
