Abstract
Examples of several recent developments in the use of amorphous magnetic alloys are summarized. They include from such devices as utility transformers for energy conservation, charged particle accelerators for energy generation, sensors to monitor energy flow and the environment, and telecommunication devices. Specific properties of the amorphous materials that lead to these applications are pointed out.
