Abstract
The magnetic properties of Fe‐Si‐B‐M (M: additives) alloys prepared by annealing amorphous alloys made by the single roller method over their crystallization temperature have been investigated for development of new Fe‐based soft magnetic alloys. Excellent soft magnetic properties were obtained by adding the two elements Cu and Nb to Fe‐Si‐B alloys. It was found that these new alloys, called ‘‘FINEMET,’’ have an ultrafine grain structure composed of bcc Fe solid solution. They are suitable for many kinds of magnetic components such as saturable reactors, choke coils, and transformers, because they have superior soft magnetic properties and a high saturation flux density, and because different types of B‐H hysteresis loops are obtained by magnetic field annealing.

Size effects in materials due to microstructural and dimensional constraints: a comparative review

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of size on predominantly mechanical properties of materials are reviewed at a first-order level, and important aspects can be understood from the point of view of the interaction of a characteristic length (which may be as diverse as the dislocation radius of curvature at a given stress or the magnetic exchange length) with a size parameter (grain or particle size, or film thickness).

Static wall coercive force in ferromagnetic thin films

TL;DR: In this paper, the static wall coercive force of thin ferromagnetic films has been calculated from a model of conservative wall energy, where the spatial dependence of the wall energy γ w is given by the mean value of the local anisotropy energy, averaged over a coupling volume.
