Low NbC-content was found to affect the oriented grain growth and slightly improve the〈100〉ori-entation. Flat grain boundaries in the alloys with low NbC contents less than 0.2at%became greatly curved at higher NbC contents, and a large amount of Nb-rich precipitates were observed in the alloys with high NbC contents. Small amounts of NbC, less than 0.2at%, resulted in an increase in magnetostrictive strain due to the improvement of the〈100〉orientation, and a high magnetostrictive strain value of 335 ×10^-6 under a pre-stress of 15 MPa was obtained in the 0.1at%NbC-doped alloys. The magnetostrictive performance obviously decreased with the NbC addition higher than 0.5at%, and the strain sensitivity under no pre-stress was lower than that in the binary Fe？Ga alloy.展开更多

The results show that precipitation of NbC is promoted in ferrite but retarded in austenite. The fit to different models by using the least square technique indicates that the addition of RE changes the rate constant of precipitation rather than the kinetic mechanism of precipitation.展开更多
