Influence of grain boundaries on orientation of spontaneous magnetization inside domains in the Fe-3%Si ferromagnetic sheets

Abstract

Some peculiarities of the spatial distribution of magnetization M⃗S inside stripe domains near the planar grain boundaries in the sheets of soft magnetic alloys such as Fe-3%Si with orientation (011̄) in demagnetized state are investigated. By means of solution of the Landau-Lifshitz equation, the equilibrium magnetization configurations are calculated and mechanisms of their formation are discussed. An existence of 180° domain walls bending under the action of the magnetostatic fields at the grain boundary was theoretically grounded.

The effects of applied magnetic fields on the α/γ phase boundary in the Fe–Si system

“…Modification of thermo-mechanical processing by magnetic fields has been growing substantially in the last decade [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20]. The goal of such processing is to achieve superior material properties that cannot be obtained through the more conventional thermo-mechanical treatments.…”
