Abstract

The microstructure of melt-spun Au83.3Co16.7 and Au71.6Co28.4 ribbons is investigated by means of analytical and high-resolution electron microscopy. The as-quenched ribbons contain a multilayered lamellar eutectic within the grains and Co precipitates at grain boundaries. Cobalt-rich lamellae are found with growing direction 〈110〉 and an average width of 7.5 nm. The thickness of the Co-lamella parallel to [001] is larger in the sample with the higher Co-content. Annealing at 480 °C dissolves the eutectic and large Co particles are formed at grain boundaries and within the grains deteriorating the magnetic properties. Die Mikrostruktur von schnell abgekuhlten Au83.3Co16.7 und Au71.6Co28.4 Bandern wird mittels analytischer und hochauflosender Elektronenmikroskopie untersucht. Die nicht warmebehandelten Bander bestehen aus Kornern mit einem lamellaren Eutektikum und Co-Ausscheidungen an den Korngrenzen. Die Kobalt-reichen Lamellen wachsen in 〈110〉 Richtung und weisen eine mittlere Breite von 7,5 nm auf. In der 28,4 At% Co Probe ist die Dicke der Co-Lamellen parallel zu [001] groser als in der Probe mit geringerem Co-Gehalt. Eine Warmebehandlung bei 480 °C lost die Lamellenstruktur auf, fuhrt zur Bildung von grosen Co-Ausscheidungen an Korngrenzen und im Inneren der Korner und verschlechtert die magnetischen Eigenschaften.
