Abstract
The crystal structure and magnetic properties of melt spun Sm(Co,V)7 ribbons have been investigated. It was found that SmCo7−xVx ribbons may crystallize in pure TbCu7-type structure for x=0.1–0.3 spun at a high wheel speed of 40 m/s. The structure refinement results show that the doping element V prefers to occupy the 2e site of TbCu7-type structure. Besides, transmission electron microscopy images show that with increasing V content, the grain size was refined from 200–400 nm for x=0.1 to 40–100 nm for x=0.3. As a result, the intrinsic coercivity enhances effectively from 1.9 kOe for SmCo7 ribbon to 11.5 kOe for SmCo6.7V0.3 ribbon. It is also verified that a slight addition of C to SmCo7−xVx could further refine the microstructure, resulting in the improvement of the magnetic properties of SmCo7−xVx ribbons. The optimal magnetic properties of σr=58.7 emu/g, Hic=13.5 kOe, and (BH)max=9.3 MG Oe can be obtained for SmCo6.9V0.1C0.1 ribbon.
