Measurement of magnetic properties showed that the SmCo film possessed good magnetic anisotropy, a high coercivity of 3019 kA/m and low magnetic exchange coupling. Microstructure analysis showed that crystallized SmCo5 magnetic phase, non-magnetic SmCo2 phase and Sm2Co7 phase co-existed in the film. The non-magnetic SmCo2 phase might function as isolator of SmCo grains, leading to a decrease of magnetic exchange coupling. Moreover, a Cr2O3 oxide layer which could protect the SmCo layer from oxidation formed at the surface of the Cr cap layer.展开更多

The ribbon melt-spun at lower wheel speed （20 m/s） has composite structure composed of mostly SmCo7 and a small amount of Sm2Co17R. The grain size of SmCo7 phase decreases with the increase of Cr3C2 content. With the increase of wheel speed, the XRD peaks become lower and accompanied with a broad increase in backgrounds, indicating a considerable decrease in the grain size of the SmCo7 phase. When the wheel speed increases to 40 m/s, SmCo7-x（Cr3C2）x alloys can be obtained in the amorphous state for 0.15≤x≤0.25 with intrinsic coercive Hci of 0.004-0.007 T. The DSC analysis reveals that SmCo7 phase firstly precipitates from the amorphous matrix at 650 °C, followed by the crystallization of Sm2Co17 phase at 770 °C.展开更多

High-resolution field emission scanning electron microscopy （FE-SEM） was used to characterize the laminated films, indicating that the micro-laminated （ZrO2-Y2O3）] （Al2O3-Y2O3） films have nano-structures. SEM, EDS and mass gain measurement were adopted to study the oxidation resistance of films on Fe-13Cr alloy. It is proved that such micro-laminated films are more effective than ZrO2-Y2O3 or Al2O3-Y2O3 films to resist the oxidation of the alloy, and the oxidation resistance is increased with increasing layers in micro-laminated films. These beneficial effects can be contributed to the mechanism, by which such micro-laminated （ZrOE- YEO3）/（Al2O3-Y2O3） composite film combines all the beneficial effects and overcomes all the disadvantages of both ZrOE- Y2O3 film and Al2O3-Y2O3 film during oxidation of alloy.展开更多

X-ray powder diffraction （XRD）, thermogravimetry-differential scanning calorimetry （TG-DSC）, N2-sorption, scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and transmission electron microscopy （TEM） were used to characterize the as-prepared nc-Cr2O3 thin films. The Cr2O3 thin film with different morphology was obtained by changing the relative humidity. The possible formation mechanism of the nc-Cr2O3 thin films with different morphologies was discussed.展开更多
