Abstract
Effects of compressive stress perpendicular to the surface of 4 percent silicon-iron single crystals on their magnetic properties were investigated. Picture frame single crystal specimens which were used had [100] and [111] orientation, respectively. The hysteresis loops at low field (0 < H <450 A/m) were measured under the applied stress. For the 4 percent Si-Fe [100] specimen, a large decrease of induction under stress occurs at lower fields, and for the 4 percent Si-Fe [111] specimen, the induction increases with increasing applied stress at lower fields but decreases at higher fields and coincides with the same value of the zero stress case when H is greater than about 400A/m. The stress versus B <inf xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">r</inf> /B <inf xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">m</inf> curves of the 4 percent Si-Fe [100] and [111] specimens were plotted to show the change of the induction under applied stress.
