The precipitation of nanocrystalline structure in the joule heated Fe72Al5Ga2P11C6B4 metallic glasses by Mitrović N., Kane S., Roth S., Kalezić-Glišović A., Mickel C., Eckert J.

“…The decrease of the electrical resistivity after each current annealing treatment is rather small in comparison with other Fe-based amorphous alloys (only about 1.5 % for the highest PS). Partial nanocrystallization leads to increase of coercive field (from HC ≈ 7 A/m in the amorphous as-cast state up to 45 A/m) attributed to precipitation of magnetically harder compounds (Fe3B and FeC).…”
