| Enhancement of soft magnetic properties in the selected group of amorphous alloys was examined by different experimental methods. It was shown that permeability for annealed samples (at Ta for 1 h; 300 K < Ta < 900 K) plotted vs. Ta shows a maximum at which is 700, 725, 725, and 750 K for Fe82Nb2B14Y2, Fe82Nb2B14Gd2, Fe82Nb2B14Tb2 and Fe82Nb2B14Dy2 alloy, respectively. For samples after the optimization annealing permeability is at least 10 times higher than in the as-quenched state. The optimized microstructure is free of iron nanograins and corresponds to so-called relaxed amorphous phase. |
