Abstract
Nano-crystalline magnetic alloys of Fe-Ni and Fe-Co are fabricated by high-energy milling. The coexistence of bcc and fcc lattice structures is observed in some of Fe-Ni alloys, as opposed to Fe-Co ones which exhibit the bcc phase only. The grain sizes increase linearly with the lattice strains for Fe-Co, and exponentially so for Fe-Ni. The cut-off frequency decreases with increasing nickel content in Fe-Ni alloys, but increases with increasing cobalt content in Fe-Co alloys. The larger the cut-off frequency is, the smaller the initial permeability. Resonant behaviour is observed in the pure Fe and Fe-Ni samples, which is replaced by relaxant behaviour in Fe-Co, implying that the Co plays an important role in hindering the resonance. The initial permeability at 10 kHz varies inverse proportionally with the coercivity H c . It reaches a maximum while H c goes to a minimum at 7.69 at.% Ni or Co. It is interesting that average atomic moments of nanocrystalline alloys are inconsistent with the Slater-Pauling relation.
