The effect of annealing condition on nanocrystalline amorphous FINEMET type of alloy with nominal composition Fe74Cu1.5Nb2.5Si12B10 prepared by rapid solidification method has been studied to observe the structural properties and crystallization behavior of the material. Nanocrystalline alloy with ferromagnetic bcc nanocrystals with size 15-29 nm embedded in a residual amorphous matrix was produced from amorphous precursor by appropriate annealing condition. The amorphosity of the material, primary crystallization temperature, the nanometric grain size, Si content and the lattice parameter of Fe(Si) nano-phase have been determined from XRD patterns of the samples annealed at different temperatures ranging from 475°C - 650°C with annealing time 5, 12, 20 and 30 minutes. The annealing temperature 475°C (with annealing time of 12 minutes) was determined as primary crystallization temperature with grain size 15 nm, Si content 16.25 at.% and lattice parameter 2.8431 Å. The grains were found to grow rapidly after 550°C attaining a maximum value of 29 nm at the annealing temperature of 650°C. The grain size and Si content increase whereas the lattice parameter decreases with the increase of annealing temperature and time.Dhaka Univ. J. Sci. 64(1): 71-75, 2016 (January)

To observe the impact of the annealing time on the alloy structure and ultra-soft magnetic properties of Fe75.5Si13.5Cu1Nb1B9, the alloy was annealed in a controlled way in the temperature range 475 - 600°C for different annealing time from 5 to 30 min. Amorphosity of the ribbon and nanocrystalline state was evaluated by X-ray diffraction. Grain size and Si content increase with increasing annealing temperature and time; on the other hand lattice parameter decrease with increasing annealing temperature and time. The maximum permeability was observed at annealing temperature Ta = 525°C for 15 min, and thereafter it starts to decreases. Saturation magnetization increases with annealing temperature Ta for the samples and finally decreases during annealing at a temperature much higher than peak crystallization temperature. The results of the experimental observations are explained on the basis of existing theories of nanocrystalline amorphous metallic ribbons.Journal of Bangladesh Academy of Sciences, Vol. 40, No. 2, 137-145, 2016

CdO films were prepared using a chemical spray paralysis (CSP) method on the glass substrate at a temperature of 350 ° C and thickness (260 ± 15 nm), and study the effect annealing time (0, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5) h at annealing temperature 450 °C on structural properties. The X-ray diffraction pattern the results showed that all CdO thin films have a polycrystalline structure and a prevalent growth in the direction (111), and the average grain size (G) in this direction ranges (29.80 - 33.23) nm. It generally increases in value while the agitation values, extraction density, number of crystals decrease by increasing the annealing time (0-2)h at annealing temperature 450 ° C of thin films. From the resulted of the atomic force microscope (AFM), the surface roughness, medium square root (RMS) and average grain size increase with the increasing of the annealing time (0-2) h, at annealing temperature 450 ° C. The thin film with annealing time 2.5 h at annealing temperature 450 °C . We note a slight decrease in the values of the coefficients ( XRD and AFM) Due to the changes in the crystal structure of thin films and beginning of cracks and crystal defects generated on the surface of the thin film during the annealing process. It has been observed in practice that the increase in the annealing time to 3 h at annealing temperature 450 ° C. led to the separation of the thin film from the substrates.

Thin films of Er-doped Ta2O5 have been synthesized by RF sputtering. The influence of annealing temperature, number of Er tablets and annealing time on the structural properties of grown films, has been studied. The samples annealed bellow 800°C show amorphous nature. However, the sample annealed at 800°C and above shows crystalline nature of the film with β–Ta2O5 (orthorhombic) and δ–Ta2O5 (hexagonal) phase. The crystalline structure of the film is disturbed with the increase in Er concentration.

The method adopted to manufacture copper clad steel wire in this study is cladding and welding and then drawing and annealing it. The effect of drawing deformation and annealing treatment on the grain size of α-Fe phase were studied. Experimental results show that the grain sizeα in cross section of α-Fe phase is decreased with the increase of the drawing deformation. Grains of the longitudinal section are elongated toward the drawing direction and appeared a strip shape. The grain size in cross-section of α-Fe phase is enhanced with the increase of the annealing time and annealing temperature, its length diameter ratio in longitudinal section is decreased oppositely. The grain size in cross section and length diameter ratio in longitudinal section are almost invariant in 850 °C for 2 h, the grain in longitudinal section tends to be equiaxial, the recrystallization processes is thus finished at this moment. Through the experimental data analysis, the regression equation about the relation of annealing temperature and annealing time of CCS with the grain size in cross section and length diameter ratio in longitudinal section are obtained.

The Na2O-CaO-SiO2-MgO-Al2O3-ZnO glass-ceramics was prepared from the phosphorus slag as main primary raw materials by melt quenching technique. The effects of K2O and Al2O3 on crystallization behavior and structure of glass-ceramics were investigated by DSC, XRD and SEM. It is shown that the main crystalline phase is combeite (Na4Ca4(Si6O18)) in glass-ceramics. K2O and Al2O3 do not change the main crystalline phase of glass-ceramics, but K2O increases the crystallization temperature, Al2O3 increases the crystallization temperature, obviously decreases the grain size. The K2O isometric replaces Na2O at the same time the Al2O3 isometric to replace SiO2, reduced the grain size.

In this study the effects of heating rate on the sharpness and size of Goss oriented ({110}<001>) grains during secondary recrystallization annealing at 900 °C was observed. The results show that, at the same annealing temperature, rapid heating of the samples to this temperature generates a higher drag force compared to a slower heating rate (5°C/min). The two groups of samples show different growth kinetics for Goss grains, in which at the longest annealing time, the rapid heating sample exhibits larger maximum Goss grain size compared to the slower heated samples.

In this paper, we studied the grain size and volume fraction change of [Formula: see text]-Fe(Si) nanocrystalline phase as a function of Cu, Mo and Si content in Fe[Formula: see text]Cu[Formula: see text]Mo3Si[Formula: see text]B9, Fe[Formula: see text]Cu1Mo[Formula: see text]Si[Formula: see text]B9, Fe[Formula: see text]Cu1Mo3Si[Formula: see text]B[Formula: see text], and also the annealing temperature and time in Fe[Formula: see text]Cu1Mo3Si[Formula: see text]B9 alloy. Cu is an element promoting ultrafine structure and crystallization progresses, it causes the grain size of the [Formula: see text]-Fe(Si) phase to decrease suddenly, the volume fraction of [Formula: see text]-Fe(Si) phase to increase only by adding 0.5 at.% Cu. Also, Mo causes the grain size of [Formula: see text]-Fe(Si) phase to decrease like Cu, while suppressing the increase of the volume fraction of [Formula: see text]-Fe(Si) phase, Si has no little effect on the grain size of [Formula: see text]-Fe(Si) phase, diffuses into the inner part of [Formula: see text]-Fe(Si) phase upto Si 13.5 at.%, but suddenly increases grain size above Si 13.5 at.%. The microstructure of Fe[Formula: see text]Cu1Mo3Si[Formula: see text]B9 alloy is nearly completed at 520[Formula: see text]C for about 20 min, the grain size is approximately 13.8–14.1 nm, the volume fraction of [Formula: see text]-Fe(Si) phase is within 61–66%, initial permeability at 1 kHz is within 59,800–61,100.

Li2O-Al2O3-SiO2 glass-ceramics doped with Nd2O3 were prepared by the melting method. The effects of Nd2O3 on the crystallization behavior of Li2O-Al2O3-SiO2 glass-ceramics were studied by DTA, XRD and SEM. With the increase of Nd2O3 content, the glass crystallization temperature arised. The SEM result indicates that the main crystal phase of Li2O-Al2O3-SiO2 glass-ceramics doped with Nd2O3 is β-quartz solid solution, for without doping Nd2O3 it is β-spodumene solid solution. These results shows that the crystallization temperature increases significantly by doping Nd2O3, and phase transition from β-quartz to β-spodumene is suppressed. The grain size increases with the increase of Nd2O3 content.

Single-layered FePt films of 30 nm thick were annealed at temperature between 300 and 800 °C for 1–180 sec by a rapid thermal annealing (RTA) with a high heating rate of 100 °C/sec. It is found that both the grain size and magnetic domain size of the FePt film increase with increasing annealing temperature and annealing time. The FePt films exhibited soft magnetic properties and without domain images were observed by magnetic force microscope (MFM) when the films were post-annealed at below 500 °C for 180 sec. The in-plane coercivity (Hc//) and perpendicular coercivity (Hc⊥) of FePt film increases significantly to 7.5 and 6.5 kOe respectively as annealing temperature increases to 600 °C. When the annealing temperature is increased to 700 °C, they are increased to 11.1 and 9.5 kOe, respectively, and the domain structure inclines to isolated domain. However, further increasing the annealing temperature to 800 °C, the Hc// and Hc⊥ values decrease to 9.8 and 8.9 kOe respectively due to largely increase the grain size of FePt and change the domain structure from isolation to continuity. On the other hand, in order to transform the FePt film from disordered γ phase to the ordered L10 phase, the annealing time of over 3 seconds is necessary when the film was post-annealed at 700 °C with a high heating rate of 100 °C/sec by RTA technique.

Abstract Nanocrystalline Li 0.35 Ni 0.3 Fe 2.35 O 4 ferrites were prepared at different annealing temperature by sol-gel auto-combustion method. The effects of the annealing temperature on the structure and magnetic properties of the synthesized Li-Ni ferrites were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectra (FT-IR) and Squid-VSM. Rietveld refinement of the X-ray diffraction data confirmed the occurrence of phase transition from α-spinel to β-spinel, from which the ideal cation occupation and lattice parameter can be obtained. The grain size increased significantly with annealing temperature. The variation of saturation magnetization can be well explained in terms of the occupation of ions in tetrahedron and octahedron. The coercivity initially increased and later decreased significantly from 115 to 37 Oe with the increase of annealed temperature which could be attributed the fact that the 600℃-annealed grain size is close to transition size from single to multidomain region.
