Abstract
Soft magnetic multi-principal element alloys (SMMPEAs) are emerging as promising materials for magnetic components in electrical applications and sustainable energy supply. However, achieving both excellent mechanical properties and soft magnetic properties remains a challenge for SMMPEAs. Here, the “metastability engineering” strategy is exploited in SMMPEAs to overcome the strength–ductility trade-off via the transformation-induced plasticity (TRIP). The designed alloy has a tensile strength of 1.65 GPa at 15% tensile elongation, saturation magnetization of 131 emu/g, coercivity of 12.5 Oe, and electrical resistivity of 116 μΩ cm. The results herein provide an effective paradigm for developing metastable SMMPEAs with TRIP for an enhanced strength–ductility synergy, paving the way for their application of high-performance magnetic components.
期刊介绍:
Applied Physics Letters (APL) features concise, up-to-date reports on significant new findings in applied physics. Emphasizing rapid dissemination of key data and new physical insights, APL offers prompt publication of new experimental and theoretical papers reporting applications of physics phenomena to all branches of science, engineering, and modern technology.
In addition to regular articles, the journal also publishes invited Fast Track, Perspectives, and in-depth Editorials which report on cutting-edge areas in applied physics.
APL Perspectives are forward-looking invited letters which highlight recent developments or discoveries. Emphasis is placed on very recent developments, potentially disruptive technologies, open questions and possible solutions. They also include a mini-roadmap detailing where the community should direct efforts in order for the phenomena to be viable for application and the challenges associated with meeting that performance threshold. Perspectives are characterized by personal viewpoints and opinions of recognized experts in the field.
Fast Track articles are invited original research articles that report results that are particularly novel and important or provide a significant advancement in an emerging field. Because of the urgency and scientific importance of the work, the peer review process is accelerated. If, during the review process, it becomes apparent that the paper does not meet the Fast Track criterion, it is returned to a normal track.
