Pressure effects on the magnetic properties of FeCuZr studied by x-ray magnetic circular dichroism: Evidence of weakening of ferromagnetism in FeCuZr alloys

Abstract: The room temperature changes of the magnetic behavior under pressure of an invar alloy of nominal composition (Fe0.5Cu0.5)87Zr13 (at. %) has been studied by K-edge x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) and x-ray absorption near edge spectroscopy (XANES). The Curie temperature, as determined from low field magnetization measurements, is (255 ± 15)K. However XMCD shows a non negligible signal above this temperature. In addition, the XMCD signal decreases upon increasing pressure indicating a pressure-induced … Show more

“…In those cases, the contraction of the structure due to the increase of pressure reduces both magnetization and T C . 11,12 Moreover, considering the Slater-Pauling curve for Fe-Co, the magnetic moment of Fe atoms increases as the separation between atoms increases. 13 However, it should be noted that a distribution in the Fe-Fe distance intrinsic in the amorphous structures would produce a distribution of the exchange coupling constant, as studied by Gallagher et al 14 This also originates a broadening of the magnetocaloric peak.…”
