Abstract
High-performance power supply and electronic equipment require power inductor to work at high frequency with high energy efficiency, it is urgent to develop high-frequency soft magnetic composites with low loss. A promising Fe/submicron FeNi soft magnetic composite was successfully fabricated by hybrid carbonyl iron powder and submicron FeNi particles, which can be easily produced as mini molding inductors under the existing industrial conditions. Compared with the inductor made by carbonyl iron powders, the inductor with 30 wt% submicron FeNi particles can obtain better DC bias performance (saturation current increased by 9.8 %) and lower loss (the quality factor increased from 13 to 20, an increase of 53.8 %). The influence of submicron FeNi particles on the magnetic loss of soft magnetic composites was discussed from the view of microstructure and dynamic magnetization process. With the decrease of particle size, the number of magnetic domains in particles decrease and the size become finer, which leads to the decrease of domain wall resonance component and the enhancement of spin rotation component during dynamic magnetization. The reduction of domain wall displacement and domain refinement reduce hysteresis loss and excess loss. The small size of submicron FeNi particles also lead to low eddy current loss. Our findings might shed insight on the design of novel soft magnetic composites with low power loss.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials provides an important forum for the disclosure and discussion of original contributions covering the whole spectrum of topics, from basic magnetism to the technology and applications of magnetic materials. The journal encourages greater interaction between the basic and applied sub-disciplines of magnetism with comprehensive review articles, in addition to full-length contributions. In addition, other categories of contributions are welcome, including Critical Focused issues, Current Perspectives and Outreach to the General Public.
Main Categories:
Full-length articles:
Technically original research documents that report results of value to the communities that comprise the journal audience. The link between chemical, structural and microstructural properties on the one hand and magnetic properties on the other hand are encouraged.
In addition to general topics covering all areas of magnetism and magnetic materials, the full-length articles also include three sub-sections, focusing on Nanomagnetism, Spintronics and Applications.
The sub-section on Nanomagnetism contains articles on magnetic nanoparticles, nanowires, thin films, 2D materials and other nanoscale magnetic materials and their applications.
The sub-section on Spintronics contains articles on magnetoresistance, magnetoimpedance, magneto-optical phenomena, Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS), and other topics related to spin current control and magneto-transport phenomena. The sub-section on Applications display papers that focus on applications of magnetic materials. The applications need to show a connection to magnetism.
Review articles:
Review articles organize, clarify, and summarize existing major works in the areas covered by the Journal and provide comprehensive citations to the full spectrum of relevant literature.
