“…Anyhow, the contribution of two types of magnetic anisotropies could be discerned: (i) uniaxial anisotropy, which results from the shape anisotropy, and (ii) fourfold anisotropy, which results from the presence of crystallites (in bcc arrangement), embedded in the residual amorphous matrix. Indeed, it is important to mention that (i) the magnetic texture is not homogeneous in an amorphous alloy and is rather perpendicular to the ribbon plane for Fe containing alloys, because of the positive magnetostriction [5], (ii) the surface displays a crystalline fraction larger than that of the bulk [14] which (iii) thus favours a perpendicular magnetic texture [15]. Table 2 summarizes the refined quantities, namely isotropic K 0 , fourfold K 1 , and uniaxial K u anisotropy constants and respective angles ϕ 1 and ϕ u which characterise the orientations of the anisotropy axes.…”
