The Domain Dynamic in Fe-Based Amorphous Alloy Ribbons by Means Inductance Spectroscopy

Abstract:

In the present work, a detailed study of the structural relaxation through the complex inductance response by using Inductance Spectroscopy (IS) of Fe-based amorphous ribbons obtained by as quenching ultra-rapid technique, as a function of frequency form 4 to 400 kHz and under thermal treatment during 10, 20, 40, 60, 120 and 180 min, is presented. The analysis of experimental results of IS plots of real (L ́) and imaginary (L ́ ́) inductance show evidence of magnetization processes associated with domain walls: At low fields and low frequencies, L ́ showed a plateau, followed by a dispersion with a relaxation character, the relaxation frequency is about 100 kHz (domain wall bulging). For higher fields, the inductance value depended on the field amplitude (domain wall displacement). As the frequency increased, all the curves merged into the low field plot and exhibited the same relaxation dispersion. The dependence of magnetization processes on the domain wall is determined and interpreted on the basis of the domain wall motion equation. In this way the structural relaxation associated with domain dynamic is discussed and we can establish criteria for the design of certain filters at low frequencies (from 4 to 50 kHz).
