Influence of Plastic Deformation on Nanocrystallization of Finemet Alloy

The Finemet alloy prepared by the crystallization of an amorphous precursor is a basic model material for study of magnetic nanoparticle structures.Intensive plastic deformation localized in adiabatic shear bands causes the intensive heating and structural changes in the amorphous alloy.These changes influence the magnetic properties of the amorphous precursor for the Finemet crystallization.
