A method of manufacturing an amorphous alloy involves thermally treating or annealing the amorphous alloy material at a temperature lower than the crystallization temperature thereof through rotation of the alloy material relative to a magnetic field at a velocity so as to meet the following relationship:

Method of manufacturing an amorphous magnetic alloy

Annealing method for an amorphous magnetic alloy including the steps of preparing an amorphous magnetic alloy film, and annealing the amorphous magnetic alloy film at an elevated temperature lower than Curie temperature and crystallization temperature of the amorphous magnetic alloy film under an application of a repetition of alternately applied a first magnetic field and a second magnetic field, in which the first magnetic field is applied along one direction in a major surface of the amorphous magnetic alloy film for a predetermined period, and the second magnetic field is applied along a second direction perpendicular to the one direction in the major surface of the amorphous magnetic alloy film for the predetermined period.

Annealing method for amorphous magnetic alloy

A method of manufacturing an amorphous magnetic alloy having high permeability comprises the steps of:

The amorphous magnetic alloy ribbon for magnetostriction delay lines are prepared by annealing the ribbon having a negative magnetostriction constant at a temperature lower than the crystallization temperature of the alloy under a tension sufficiently enough to support the ribbon substantially straight between the both ends thereof. The ribbon thus prepared permits a decrease in a deviation in a distribution of internal stresses and the propagation speeds of magnetostriction vibration through the ribbon.

Method of manufacturing amorphous magnetic alloy ribbon and use for

A method of manufacturing a high permeability amorphous magnetic alloy is disclosed. In the method amorphous magnetic alloy ribbon prepared by quenching a melt of raw material is annealed at an elevated temperature lower than a crystallization temperature of the alloy, in a magnetic field. During the annealing, the alloy ribbon and the direction of the magnetic field are relatively rotated with each other. The method is especially useful to an amorphous magnetic alloy having high saturation magnetic induction where the magnetic Curie temperature of the alloy usually exceeds the crystallization temperature of the alloy.
