The Dy_2Fe_(16)Cr compound has a hexagonal Th_2Ni_(17)-type structure. There exists a negative thermal expansion resulting from a strong spontaneous magnetostriction in the magnetic state of the Dy_2Fe_(16)Cr compound. The average thermal expansion coefficient is-0.794 × 10^(-5)/K in the temperature range 292–407 K. The spontaneous magnetostrictive deformation and the Curie temperature are discussed.展开更多

Paths and angle changes in the magnetic moments rotation of Tb0.3Dy0.7Fe2 alloy are studied as functions of compressive stress and magnetic field, and then used to determine the magnetization in its actuation. Then sensing of magnetic induction picked from a driving coil in an actuator is derived. The model is quick and efficient to solve moments rotation and its magnetization. Sensing results of compressive stress and magnetostriction calculated by the model are in good agreement with experiments and will be helpful in the design and control of self-sensing applications in actuators.展开更多

The magnetostriction measurements are carried out at room temperature using standard strain gauge technique in magnetic fields up to 400 kA·m-1. The results show that when the magnetic field, H, is 90 kA·m-1, the magnetostriction, λ, of Tb0.22Dy0.48Ho0.35Fe2 quaternary alloys is 260×10-6, and when the H is 210 kA·m-1, the λ is 438×10-6. When the H is 400 kA·m-1, the λ is up to the saturation value, 538×10-6. As compared with TbDyFe ternary alloys, the λ of the quaternary alloy is significantly higher when the H is less than or equal to 210 kA·m-1. When the H is 120 kA·m-1, the λ of the alloy is 333×10-6, 70×10-6 more than the ternary alloy. Research results and mechanism are discussed.展开更多

The model was based on Stoner-Wohlfarth (S-W) model wherein Tb0.3Dy0.7Fe2 alloy was taken as a research object, and the deflection law of magnetization angle of single magnetic domain was studied through drawing the equipotential curves and changing curves of free energy function under different applied stresses and in different magnetic fields. Research results showed that there were three kinds of magnetization angles of single magnetic domain as for Tb0.3Dy0.7Fe2 alloy, namely 35.26o , 90o and 144.74o ; under the action of applied stresses, the magnetization anglesθwere deflected to the direction of 90o for the magnetic domains of 35.26o and 144.74o and the magnetization anglesψ were changed and transited to the direction ofψ=135o for the magnetic domain of 90o ; the magnetic domain was deflected under the action of small magnetic field for magnetic domain of 35.26o ; with the increase of magnetic field intensity, the magnetic domain of 90o had a transition trend to a stationary planar ofψ=ψ0; the magnetic domain of 144.74o had a transition trend to the direction of magnetic domain of 35.26o. These results laid a foundation for the magnetostrictive mechanism and establishment of precision positioning theories of the giant magnetostrictive materials.展开更多
