In particular the growth of films on flexible substrates was studied to allow a simple integration of the system in miniaturized magnetostrictive devices. The films were fabricated on different substrates to compare their different magnetic and structural properties. It showed much more magnetostriction and higher impact resistance results compared with traditional Si based film type actuators. In the fabrication process, amorphous TbDyFe films with thicknesses of 500 nm, 1 μm, 1.5 μm respectively, were deposited on the designed substrate by DC magnetron sputtering. During sputtering process the substrate holder was maintained at room temperature. After the sputter process, X-ray diffraction studies were also carried out to determine the film structure and thickness of the sputtered film. At last, magnetization from VSM (Vibrating Sample Magnetometer) and magnetostriction from optical cantilever method of each structure were measured to estimate the magneto-mechanical characteristics under the external magnetic field lower than 0.7 T for micro-system applications.展开更多

Heat treatment has a great effect on the crystalline state and the magnetostrictive strain of the composite materials. The as-deposited(Tb_(0.3) Dy_(0.7))Fe_(1.95) films are amorphous, and the saturation magnetostriction(ls) is only 90 ppm. However, the nanostructured crystalline REFe2 is partially separated out in amorphous matrix after annealing at 600C for 1 h, and the ls increases to 265 ppm. Simultaneously, the detection efficiency of the composite materials is obviously improved compared to that of the as-deposited films. The detection signal of traditional FeCo strip is0.4 V at the excitation power of 1.0 P and frequency of 128 kHz and that of the strip increases significantly by depositing one layer of(Tb_(0.3) Dy_(0.7))Fe_(1.95) film. The detection signal of the composite material annealed at 600C is the best, even reaching saturation value of 2.5 V(1.0 P, 128 kHz). The results may provide us with a method for preparing new materials for NDT.展开更多
