摘要
In this work, a magnetic annealing method used to enhance the magnetostrictive property of a narrow hysteresis alloy Tb0.26Dyo.saHo0.20Fe2 is reported. Cylindrical-rod shaped specimen with 〈110〉 crystal orientation was fabricated using zone-melting unidirectional solidification technique, followed by annealing in a transverse magnetic field of 366 kA/m. The crystal orientation and bi-phase solidified morphology can be retained after magnetic annealing. A high magnetostriction of 1.508×10^-3 was obtained in the magnetically annealed specimen, which is 25.2% larger than the untreated one. Simultaneously, the magnetostriction hysteresis width is slightly enlarged from 4.45 to 6.36 kA/m, which is still much lower than that of the Ho-free Tbo.3Dy0.TFe2 alloy. The additional anisotropy which is induced by magnetic annealing, as reflected by the magnetic hysteresis loops, is responsible for the enhancement of magnetostrictive performance.
