Transmission Electron Microscope Study

nanocomposite [(Co91.5Zr8.5)- or CZN films has been prepared by reactive co-sputter deposition method. Nitrogen content plays key role to tune soft magnetic properties. Experimental observation shows that, non-magnetic nitrogen content enhances magnetization and reduces coercivity. The nanostructure is composed of Co nanoclusters embedded in CoN/ZrN matrix, revealed by high resolution transmission electron microscope study. The d-spacing of single Co nanocluster was found to be ~0.22nm corresponding to (002) phase of Cobalt. X-ray diffraction result is in agreement with cubic (400) and (622) phase of CoZr. High electrical resistivity ρs~108μΩ-cm attained corresponding to 16% N2content films. Hysteresis loop squareness depends on film thickness and coercivity squareness (S*)~0.84, obtained for ~250nm film thickness. A correlated composite nanostructure evolution is responsible for nitrogen induced magnetization and, suggests that film properties can tuned by controlling nitrogen content, in CoN/ZrN composite matrix.

The crystallization and optimization of magnetic properties effects in FeXSiB (X=Cu, V, Co, Zr, Nb) amorphous alloys were studied by applying X-ray diffraction methods, high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), resistometric and magnetic measurements. The temperatures of the first and the second stage of crystallization, the 1h optimization annealing temperature and the Curie temperature were determined for different amorphous alloys. Activation energies of crystallization process were obtained by applying the Kissinger method. The influence of alloy additions on optimization effect and crystallization processes was carefully examined.

The paper presents a laser irradiation method for rapidly fabricating Fe-based nanocrystalline alloys using Yb-doped fiber laser with a wavelength of 1070nm by overlapping irradiation of the heated areas. The samples are annular cores rolled with 20μm-thick and 3.2mm-wide belts of amorphous alloy Fe73.5Cu1Nb3Si13.5B9, which have internal diameter of 14 mm and external diameter of 20 mm. Every side of the samples is irradiated for 15 min by fiber laser. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) are used for microstructure analysis and observation. The samples irradiated by a defocus beam with a diameter of 7.1mm through a lens have better soft magnetic properties than directly by an original collimating beam with a diameter of 6.7mm. The dimension of homogeneous ultrafine grains is about 10nm with a bcc α-Fe (Si), which is the foundation of the excellent soft magnetic property. Uniform laser irradiation and the appropriate laser power are necessary for optimum microstructure and soft magnetic properties.

Nanocrystalline Thin Films

Nanocrystalline CoFeHfO thin films have been fabricated by RF sputtering method. Co52Fe23Hf10O15 thin film is observed, exhibit good magnetic properties with magnetic coercivity (Hc) of 0.18 Oe; anisotropy fild (Hk) of 49 Oe; saturation magnetization (4лMs) of 21 kG, and electrical resistivity (ρ) of 300 01cm. The frequency response of permeability of the film is excellent. The effect of microstructure on the electrical and magnetic properties of thin film was studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and conventional transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results showed that excellent soft magnetic properties were associated with granular nannoscale grains of α-CoFe and α-Co(Fe) phases.

Fe-Ni@ SiO2core–shell structured micrometer spherical particles with nanometer thick SiO2 shell were fabricated by a facile wet chemical process, their compositions and mechanisms were investigated using x-ray diffraction and Fourier transform of infra-red spectra, and their microstructures and magnetic properties were analyzed by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and vibrating sample magnetometer. The structure of the synthesized SiO2-coated Fe-Ni alloy particles varied with adding TEOS contents. As-prepared Fe-Ni@SiO2 composites exhibit typical soft magnetic properties. Their highest saturation magnetization approximately linear decreases from 176 emu g−1for pure Fe-Ni alloy powders to 121 emu g−1for the coated powders with 20nm amorphous silica layers, but the coercivity of all different thickness SiO2-coated Fe-Ni alloy powders maintains in the range of about 25 Oe.

Microstructure And Magnetic Properties

Nanocrystalline Fe-Co alloy powders, which were prepared by high-energy mechanical milling, were nitrided under the mixing gas of NH3/H2 in the temperature range from 380°C to 510°C. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to analyze the grain size and reaction during the processing. The magnetic properties of the nitrided powders were measured by Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM). The results show that with the appearance of Fe4N phase after nitride treatment, and the grain-size of FeCo phase decreases with the increase of nitridation temperature between 380°C to 450°C.The saturation magnetization of nitrided alloy powder treated at 480°C is about 18% higher than that of the initial Fe-Co alloy powder, accompanied by the reduction of the coercivity. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) was used, attempting to further analyze the effect of Fe4N phase on microstructure and magnetic properties of the powder mixtures.

Critical Film Thickness

Influence of the bias voltage Ub and the deposition rate  on the structure, grain size D, and coercivity Hc of NiFe films with the thickness d from 30 to 980 nm, grown onto Si / SiO2 substrates by DC magnetron sputtering, was studied. In the case Ub = 0, the decrease of  from ≈ nm/min to ≈ 7 nm/min is accompanied by the increase of the critical film thickness dcr from dcr ≈ 220 nm to dcr ≈ 270 nm. In this case, Hc in the films with d < dcr is characterized by the dependence Hc ~ D6 and varies from ~ 1 to ~ 20 Oe. In the case of Ub = -100 V, the effect of the deposition rate on the coercivity is much more noticeable. At ν = 7 and 14 nm / min, the films demonstrate soft magnetic properties (Нс ≈ 0.15 - 1.4 Oe) and the absence of dcr for the entire range of studied thicknesses. The films obtained at ν = 21 and 27 nm / min turn into the “supercritical” state at d ≥ dcr ≈ 520 nm, and, in the region d < dcr, they are characterized by the dependence Hc ~ D3 and by the increase of coercivity from ~ 0.35 to ~ 10 Oe.

Nanosized spinel nickel ferrite particles have attracted considerable attention and efforts continue to investigate them for their technological importance to the microwave industries, high speed digital tap or disk recording, repulsive suspension for use in levitated railway systems, ferrofluids, catalysis and magnetic refrigeration systems. Nanosize nickel ferrite powders (NiFe2O4) have been prepared by combustion reaction using nitrates and urea as fuel. The resulting powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), BET, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results showed nanosize nickel ferrite powders with high specific surface area (55.21 m2/g). The powders showed extensive XRD line broadening and the crystallite size calculated from the XRD line broadening was 18.0 nm. The samples were uniaxially compacted by dry pressing, sintered at 1200°C/2h and characterized by bulk density, SEM and magnetic properties measurements. The samples showed uniform microstructures with grain size of 4.45 μm, maximum flux density of 0.18T, field coercive of the 488 A/m, and hysteresis loss of 47.58 W/kg.

Znfe2o4 Nanoparticles

Weak magnetic ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles were prepared by coprecipitation and treated with different concentrations of Fe(NO3)3 solution. Untreated and treated particles were studied using a vibrating sample magnetometer, transmission electron microscope, by X-ray diffraction, X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy and X photoelectron spectroscopy. The results showed that, after treatment, the ZnFe2O4/γ-Fe2O3 forms disphase nanoparticles, with enlarged size, enhanced magnetic properties and with a surface parceled with Fe(NO3)3. The size of the particles and their magnetic properties are related to the concentration of the treatment solution. The particle size and magnetic properties could be controlled by controlling the concentration of treating solution, therefore nanoparticles can be more widely used.
