ABSTRACTThis paper addresses the effect of Dy addition upon the magnetic properties, microstructure and microcomposition of Fe-Nd-B magnets. It is shown that increasing additions of Dy causes the remanence, Br to decrease linearly. The intrinsic coercivity, iHc, increases sharply for small additions of Dy, but the increase is not proportional for higher Dy contents. The iHc increases almost linearly with the effective anisotropy field of the RE2Fe14B phase until the Dy content is about 10% of the total rare earth content. Above this concentration, there is a strong deviation from linearity. Various types of possible concentration profiles of the substituted rare earth are suggested. It is also argued that preferential segregation of Dy to the interfaces could be beneficial in increasing the nucleation field. Morphologically there is no apparent effect of Dy on the microstructure. However, in the 5 atomic % Dy sample, Dy rich oxides were observed. It is shown through Energy Dispersive Xray Spectroscopy (EDXS) line profiling that Dy partitions preferentially into the RE2Fe14B phase in all the cases. No segregation of Dy to the interphase interfaces has been detected.

A practical way to manipulate the magnetic anisotropy of magnetostrictive FeGa thin films grown on flexible polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates is introduced in this study. The effect of film thickness on magnetic properties and magnetostriction constant of polycrystalline FeGa thin films was investigated. The anisotropy field Hk of flexible FeGa films, i.e., the saturation field determined by fitting the hysteresis curves measured along the hard axis, was enhanced with increasing the tensile strain applied along the easy axis of the thin films, but this enhancement via strain became unconspicuous with increasing the thickness of FeGa films. In order to study the magnetic sensitivity of thin films responding to the external stress, we applied different strains on these films and measure the corresponding anisotropy field. Moreover, the effective magnetostriction constant of FeGa films was calculated from the changes of both anisotropy field and external strain based on the Villari effect. A Neel’s phenomenological model was developed to illustrate that the effective anisotropy field of FeGa thin films was contributed from both the constant volume term and the inverse thickness dependent surface term. Therefore, the magnetic properties for the volume and surface of FeGa thin films were different, which has been verified in this work by using vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and magneto-optic Kerr effect (MOKE) system. The anisotropy field contributed by the surface of FeGa film and obtained by MOKE is smaller than that contributed by the film volume and measured by VSM. We ascribed the difference in Hk to the relaxation of the effective strain applied on the films with increasing the thickness of films.

(Pr0.25Nd0.75)10-xDyxFe82Co2B6(x=0~0.3) ribbons were prepared by melt spinning at 25m/s and subsequent annealing. The effect of Dy content on the microstructure and magnetic properties of the ribbons has been investigated by X-ray diffractometer (XRD), scanning electronic microscope (SEM) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The magnetic properties related to the Dy content were characterized. Intrinsic coercivity of 598kA/m, remanence of 0.58T, and the maximum energy product (BH)max of 43kJ/m3 were achieved in (Pr0.25Nd0.75)9.8Dy0.2Fe82Co2B6 after annealing at 700°C for 10 minutes.

The rare-earth (RE) permanent magnets based on Nd2Fe14B with excellent magnetic properties have been widely used in industrial applications. In this work, the crystal structure, microstructure and magnetic properties of Nd2.28Fe13.58B1.14, Ce2.28Fe13.58B1.14 and Pr2.28Fe13.58B1.14 alloys prepared by arc-melting were investigated. The results show that all alloys are single phase with tetragonal Nd2Fe14B-type (space group P42/mnm). The Curie temperatures (Tc) of RE2.28Fe13.58B1.14 (RE=Nd, Ce, Pr) alloys are 583 K, 423 K and 557 K, respectively. On the other hand, the coercivities of Nd2.28Fe13.58B1.14 and Pr2.28Fe13.58B1.14 alloys are about 1.05 T and 1.23 T, respectively, while that of Ce2.28Fe13.58B1.14 alloy is only about 0.25 T due to the poor squareness of hysteresis loop. Meanwhile, the saturation magnetizations of Nd2.28Fe13.58B1.14 and Pr2.28Fe13.58B1.14 alloys are about 135 emu/g and 113 emu/g, respectively, while that of Ce2.28Fe13.58B1.14 alloy is about 97 emu/g. It was indicated that the Curie temperatures and magnetic properties of RE2.28Fe13.58B1.14 alloys with the same crystal structure are dependent on light rare earth elements.

We reported a systematic study of the effect of Zr content on the structural and magnetic properties of rapidly quenched Sm (CobalFe0.11Cu0.10Zrx)7 alloys with x varying from 0 to 0.04. The results show that the addition of Zr greatly affected the microstructure and magnetic properties of the heat-treated ribbons. The Zr-free ribbon had crystallized as the 1:7H structure as the main phase while the ribbon with Zr addition adopted the 2:17R structure type. A Sm2Co7 phase was observed in the heat-treated ribbons when the Zr content x increased to 0.04. It is found that while the Zr content was increased from 0 to 0.04, saturation magnetization of the heat-treated ribbons was decreased from 11.9kGs to 3.3 kGs, and the intrinsic coercivity was increased from 0.07 kOe to 11.7 kOe. The highest intrinsic coercivity, Hci=11.7 kOe, was obtained in the ribbon with Zr content of 0.03.
