Metal Film Coatings on Amorphous Metallic Alloys.

Abstract

Fe-metalloid amorphous metallic alloy ribbons, when properly annealed in a transverse magnetic field, exhibit extremely high magnetomechanical coupling. Other amorphous metallic alloys (or glassy metals) have desirable properties such as high strength, corrosion resistance, high magnetic permeabilities, etc. Coating of crystalline metals (Silver, Gold, Copper, Aluminum) are formed on amorphous metallic alloys (glassy metals) by cathode magnetron sputtering. The process can be used to produce new products such as copper coated amorphous metallic alloy wires for torpedo controls, shielding materials for electromagnetic waves, and anticorrosion coatings for Fe-metalloid magnetostrictive elements.
