The Low Temperature Magnetic Properties of Glassy and Crystalline Pd .775Cu.06Si.165

  • Conference paper

Abstract

Since Klement et al1 prepared the first metallic glass* there has been much interest in the properties of these new materials; magnetic properties receiving particular attention.2–10 Glass formation in the binary palladium-silicon system was first observed by Duwez et al,11 and Chen and Turnbull12 reported that small additions of noble metals to the binary Pd-Si alloys greatly enhanced glass formation and stability. The composition Pd.775Cu.06Si.165 is a particularly stable glass, 12 and recently the low temperature specific heats of glassy and polycrystalline materials of this composition have been reported. 13,14 In this note we present the results of our investigations on the low temperature magnetic properties of glassy and polycrystalline Pd.775Cu.06Si.165. The purity of our starting materials, sample preparation, and crystallization procedure duplicate that used by Golding et al13 for their specific heat measurements, and differ in all three aspects from that used by Chen and Haemmerle.14

  20. In Ref. 10 the absorption tail in nominally pure As2S3 was tentatively associated with the disorder induced states in the gap. Our later work indicates that at least a part of this absorption may be due to the presence of iron.
