Annotation: The project addresses the development of novel rapidly quenched alloys with improved functional properties. Its first part will be focused on soft magnetic nanocrystalline alloys with high values of saturation magnetic inductions, which is possible to obtain by lowering of the content of non-magnetic elements in alloy and by utilization of the ultra-rapid annealing technique during the crystallization process. The other part of this project will be devoted to amorphous and nanocrystalline composites in the form of bilayer or trilayer ribbons, with the solid mechanical interface between them. In these heterogeneous systems, we will perform a detailed study of their magnetic properties. In addition, we plan also to optimize their GMI characteristics for potential magnetic sensor applications. In the project, we will focus our attention also on development of rapidly quenched composites with optimized magnetocaloric properties for magnetic cooling in the vicinity of room temperature.
