Abstract

Six amorphous alloys (Alloy 1: Fe56Co24Nb4B13Si2Cu1, Alloy 2: Fe68.5Co5Nb3Cu1Si15.5B7, Alloy 3: Fe75.3Ni0.8Cr0.9Si8.7B14.3, Alloy 4: Fe56Co24Cr10Nb4B3Si1Cu2, Alloy 5: Fe72.9Nb3Cu1Si16.2B6.9, Alloy 6: Fe83.3Si8.6Nb5.5B1.4Cu1.2) were selected in terms of their composition and magnetostriction constants and uniformly irradiated in a high radiation environment in Hall A of the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility. The 2 GeV electron beam irradiation-induced effects were characterized by Mӧssbauer spectroscopy. The microstructural changes were related to the evolution of the hyperfine magnetic field distributions and isomer shifts. In particular, the occurrence of stress centers in the amorphous materials was evidenced.

Highlights

  • To date, irradiation-induced effects have been considered in order to understand the relationship between magnetic behavior and select variation in the structural characteristics of materials [1]-[10]

  • The 2 GeV electron beam irradiation-induced effects were characterized by Mӧssbauer spectroscopy

  • In these current investigations we study the irradiation-driven modifications induced by 2 GeV electrons in several advanced metallic glasses

Summary

Introduction

Irradiation-induced effects have been considered in order to understand the relationship between magnetic behavior and select variation in the structural characteristics of materials [1]-[10]. Electron-beam irradiation of amorphous alloys attracts nowadays considerable interest due to the emphasis on the structure-property relationships relevant to rational construction of new magnetic materials. Minerals and Materials Characterization and Engineering this irradiation study [21] was limited to 7 MeV electrons and it makes sense to explore the changes induced by GeV electrons. In these current investigations we study the irradiation-driven modifications induced by 2 GeV electrons in several advanced metallic glasses
