Abstract
The magnetic properties of amorphous alloys were studied by means of magnetization measurements and the Mössbauer effect. It was found that the apparent decrease with of the Fe moment derived from magnetization measurements is due to deviations from a collinear ferromagnetic moment arrangement. The average effective hyperfine field observed in amorphous alloys when = Mg and Th was compared with literature data on amorphous alloys with = Zr, Y, La, and Sn. A correlation was found to exist between and the corresponding values of the formation enthalpies. These results are in accordance with a model proposed earlier, in which the magnetic properties of amorphous alloys are largely determined by the presence of compositional short-range order. Sign and magnitude of the formation enthalpies are a measure of the nature and the degree of this compositional short-range order. In amorphous alloys with = Mg, Th, and Ge the room-temperature isomer shift was studied. Together with literature data on amorphous alloys with = Y, Mg, Sn, Ge, and Sb the isomer shifts were analyzed in terms of a model proposed by Miedema and van der Woude.
