Magnetic Properties and Giant Magnetoimpedance in Amorphous and Nanocrystalline Microwires

Physical properties and giant magnetoimpedance sensitivity of rapidly solidified magnetic microwires

The relation between the magnetoimpedance and the magnetic properties of a wide set of soft magnetic microwires from several sources has been studied. Magnetic properties were obtained by vibrating sample magnetometry and ferromagnetic resonance spectroscopy. The magnetoimpedance voltage sensitivity of each sample, the criterion of interest for high sensitivity magnetometer design, was then eva...

Giant magnetoimpedance and field sensitivity in amorphous and nanocrystalline (Co1â‹TMxFex)89Zr7B4 (xâ•›=â•›0, 0.025, 0.05, 0.1) ribbons

High-temperature giant magnetoimpedance in Fe-based nanocrystalline alloy

Giant magnetoimpedance ~GMI! was investigated from room temperature up to 823 K in an Fe-based nanocrystalline Fe73.0Cu1.0Nb2.5V1.0Si13.5B9.0 ribbon. With an increment of the measuring temperature ~T!, GMI shows notable enhancement followed by a declining dependence, yielding a maximum value around 603 K where the relative GMI is nearly four times that at room temperature. The field at the peak...

Amorphous and Nanocrystalline Soft Magnetic Materials

Annealing of amorphous precursor alloys, with compositions (Fe,Co!88M7B4Cu1 ~M5Zr, Nb, Hf!, above their primary crystallization temperature results in the nanocrystallization of the ferromagnetic a8-FeCo phase. This work describes results of the characterization of these alloys, including morphological and chemical stability of the a8-FeCo phase, examination of alloy compositions, and developme...

Giant Magnetoimpedance Sensors

Magnetoinductive e ects in ferromagnetic conductors can be used for various sensors. Although the principle has been known for a long time, the usefulness of these e ects for practical applications was recognized recently, and intensive investigations began. Magnetoinductive e ects are related to magnetization of a magnetic conductor (wire, strip, thin lm, etc.) by a magnetic eld, which is prod...
