RESUMO

In this thesis we will present a series of studies related to induced magnetic anisotropies (Kind) in amorphous alloys. In order to get a more general view of this theme, we used several different kinds of annealings. The theoretical analysis of the data of Kind and magnetic after-effect (MAE) was performed using a model based on two-level systems (TLS). From the analysis of the experimental data we get a large actiyation energy spectrum. These energies are related to the relaxation times, through the Arrheniu \ s expression: = 0 exp(E/kT), where the pre-factor 0 is of the order of the inverse of the Debye frequency . We constructed a furnace for thermal annealing of the amorphous alloys, which operates within an electromagnet producing 6 kOe. We also wrote, the computer programs for the analysis of the experimental data. These facilities, together with the hysteresis loop tracer permitted the followings studies of the induced anisotropies in amorphous alloys: 1) A study of the kinetics of the induced anisotropy by annealing in the temperature range from 190 to 250 °C, in as cast amorphous ribbons of composition Co70.4Fe4.6Si15B10. Using the TLS model we obtained the activation energy spectrum. It presents two peaks in the energy range from 1.50 to 1.85eV and a pre-factor 0= 1.6x10-13 s. 2) Using a 5 KOe magnetic field we studied the effects of a Field annealing treatment in samples pre-annealed at 400 °C for 10 minutes. The isothermal annealings were made in Co70-XMnXSi14B9 with x = 2 and 6, in the temperature range from 240 to 325 °C. In this case we observed for these two compositions a larger pre-factor ( 10-8s) than before. The activation-energy spectra, for the both composition, are found in the energy range from 1.10 to 1.55eV. 3) Another experiment was done using samples of Co67Fe4Mo1Si12B16. We applied a tensile stress (800MPa) to the ribbon and measured the magnetic anisotropy energy. We observed a continuous variation of this energy and, after removal of the stress, the sample recuperated its initial condition, showing a process characteristically anelastic. We studied the effects of mechanic stress on the magnetic properties of samples of composition Co67Fe4Mo1Si12B16. We worked in two directions: 4) We studied the induced anisotropy in pre-annealed samples, submitted to annealing in the range from 200 to 400 °C, under a tensile stress of 500MPa and without applied stress. From these resul ts we can separate a plastic and an anelastic component in the induced anisotropy. 5) In other, we studied the behavior of the MAE, for samples with and with and without applied tensile stress, in the range from 300 to 500 K. The results obtained show neither plastic nor anelastic effects on the activation energies of the processes involved in the MAE. On the other h~nd we can see a strong alteration in the intensity of the MAE, due the stress.
