Nanostructured soft magnetic materials synthesized via mechanical alloying: a review

Soft magnetic materials are widely used in electrical and electronic industries due to their desirable electromagnetic features, i.e. relatively high electrical resistivity and low eddy current loss at high frequencies. From industrial point of view, once the size of grains is reduced to micron scal...

description Soft magnetic materials are widely used in electrical and electronic industries due to their desirable electromagnetic features, i.e. relatively high electrical resistivity and low eddy current loss at high frequencies.
