Abstract

The magnetic properties of Fe70−xDyxZr8Mo5W2B15 (0 ⩽ x ⩽ 5) bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) are studied using dc and ac susceptibility measurements. A re-entrant spin glass behaviour is observed in the BMGs and the phenomenon is ascribed to Dy-microalloying-induced site frustration. The magnetic properties of the BMGs are found to be tunable by appropriate selection of the Dy content, and the schematic magnetic phase diagram as a function of Dy content is derived.
