Abstract
The authors have investigated the DC and AC magnetic properties of a bulk glassy Fe{sub 65.5}Cr{sub 4}Mo{sub 4}Ga{sub 4}P{sub 12}B{sub 5.5}C{sub 5} alloy. In the annealed state the alloy has coercivity H{sub C} and maximum DC permeability {mu}{sub m} of approximately 0.4 A/m (5 mOe) and 2.8 x 10{sup 5}, comparable to those found in annealed zero-magnetostriction Co-based alloys. The low H{sub C} found in the bulk glassy alloy is attributed to the low ratio of surface-roughness to sample thickness, and low residual internal-stress. The total power loss in the annealed bulk glass is about one order of magnitude lower than that of rapidly quenched Fe-based glassy ribbons. This is attributed to a low anomalous eddy-current loss.
