Abstract
Fe–30%Pd alloys in ribbon and nanowire geometry have been prepared. Ribbon samples were produced by the melt-spinning technique in the Ar environment. FePd nanowires, having about 35 nm in diameter, 105 nm inter-nanowires distance and around 4 μm in length, were synthesized into nanoporous anodic alumina membranes as templates. Energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis of ribbons shows an average atomic composition of Fe (73.2%) and Pd (26.8%). The X-ray diffraction at RT analysis was performed on both surfaces, free and wheel side, of the melt-spun ribbon. It shows the coexistence of two phases: fct and bct FePd, but with differences between both surfaces consisting the existence of Fe oxides (Fe 2O 3 and Fe 3O 4) and a textured 200 reflection in the free side. Heating and cooling thermomagnetic curves exhibit a reversible behaviour from RT to 720 K, but around 770 K a clear irreversible transformation takes place.
