Abstract
The ternary diagram of the amorphous phase in the splatcooled Fe-P-B system was investigated by X-ray diffraction measurements. Alloys were found to be amorphous within the Fe concentration range 75 ≤ cFe ≤ 83 at.%. For a fixed Fe concentration, B substitutes for P over a large scale, the maximum substitution occurring for cFe = 80 at.%. Concentration dependence of the electronic and magnetic properties was systematically studied in alloys within the whole amorphous diagram by means of bulk magnetization \( \overline \mu \) (4,2°K), Curie temperature Tc and electrical resistivity ρ measurements from 4.2°K up to the amorphous-crystalline transformation. The composition dependence of \( \overline \mu \) and Tc when B substitutes for P at a constant cFe suggests the existence of two different short range orders in the amorphous alloys, corresponding to ɛ and ɛ1 crystal structures in the Fe3P1−xBx compounds. The concentration dependence of \( \overline \mu \) and Tc when P (or B) substitutes for Fe at a constant cB (or cP) is explained by a comparison between the amorphous Fe and the fcc Fe. A minimum in the variation of ρ as a function of temperature T occurs at Tm. The temperature dependence of ρ is expressed by a phenomenological law:
