Semi-hard magnetic nanocomposites based on out-of-equilibrium Fe2+δNb and Fe2+δTa Laves phases

Melt-spun Fe100-xNbx and Fe100-xTax alloys consisting of a hexagonal (C14) Laves phase and an iron-based bcc phase were found to exhibit room-temperature coercivities up to 0.45 and 0.48 kOe, respectively. The non-equilibrium C14 structures in the melt-spun alloys are characterized by a smaller unit...
