Abstract
A nanocrystalline alloy wherein at least 50 volume % of an alloy structure consists of a crystal grain mainly comprising bcc-phase having a grain size of 50 nm or less, a saturation magnetic flux density of the alloy is 1 T or more, a remanent flux density of the alloy is 0.4 T or less, and an Fe--B compound phase is partially formed in the alloy. The nanocrystalline alloy produced by heat treatment without applying any magnetic field shows pulse attenuation characteristics comparable to or more excellent than those of a nanocrystalline alloy obtained by heat treatment in a magnetic field.
