Definitions

  • the invention relates to an amorphous alloy according to the preamble of claim 1 and a strip-shaped sensor element.
  • Narrow and thin strips of a well soft magnetic material are required for security labels. So far commercial strips made of both crystalline and amorphous material have been used. The usual dimensions here are strip widths less than 3 mm, strip thicknesses less than 40 ⁇ m and label lengths from 50 to 100 mm, in individual cases even less. It is important for the functioning of such strips that the material can be completely magnetized or re-magnetized with the smallest possible exciting magnetic fields. Due to the non-linearity of the magnetization curve of the strip when magnetic saturation is reached, when the magnetization is reversed in a corresponding receiver coil of an anti-theft system, z. B. harmonics of the excitation frequency are generated, which are used to detect the strip and thus a possible thief.
  • the field strength H s which is necessary for the complete magnetization of the strip, is essentially determined by the geometry of the strip (magnetic shear effect) and the magnetic anisotropy energy transverse to the strip direction.
  • H s is the geometry of the strip (magnetic shear effect) and the magnetic anisotropy energy transverse to the strip direction.
  • w is the width
  • t is the thickness
  • 1 is the length of the strip
  • B s is the saturation induction
  • H A is the magnetic anisotropy field.
  • the factor ⁇ also depends, albeit only very weakly, on the strip geometry and can essentially be regarded as constant.
  • the magnetic excitation field strength in current systems must be about the order of magnitude or greater than the saturation field strength H s , if possible.
  • H s saturation field strength
  • z. B. to avoid false alarms by other ferromagnetic objects or for reasons of power requirements for the excitation field strength, to reduce unnecessary losses or heating, the excitation field strength should not be too large.
  • the demagnetizing field in the strip direction is significantly reduced according to the equation. This has the desired effect that the magnetic stripe can be remagnetized in relatively small excitation fields and thus delivers the desired signal.
  • the saturation field strength H s can be further reduced by making the anisotropy field H A almost disappear by special heat treatments.
  • This is e.g. B. the case for magnetic material with an intrinsically rectangular magnetization loop, which is why such a material turned out to be particularly suitable in many cases.
  • the invention has for its object to find an amorphous alloy with which, if necessary, the length of the strip-shaped sensor elements can be reduced in the sense of miniaturization, it must be ensured that the desired function can also be performed.
  • This object is achieved by an amorphous alloy with the features of claim 1 and by the sensor element according to claim 5.
  • the present invention is based on the knowledge that for such special applications the saturation field strength H s can be achieved not only by reducing the cross section but also by reducing the saturation magnetization.
  • the known, commercially available alloys in the field of application according to the invention all have a saturation magnetization B s of greater than 0.5 T.
  • B s saturation magnetization
  • EP-OS 0 121 694 shows that the saturation magnetization is far greater than 0.5 T, and it is noted that it is particularly advantageous if the saturation magnetization has a value equal to or greater than 1 T .
  • u 4 to 10 at.%
  • X 35 to 45 at.%
  • Y 0 to 1
  • z 21 to 23 at.%.
  • the attached table shows the results of a series of alloys which have been subjected to heat treatment in the longitudinal field. For economic reasons, such a heat treatment should not take too long, ie be shorter than about 1 day, and still be a remanence ratio B r / B s > 0.6 achieve.
  • alloys 1 to 6 have a saturation induction in the desired range, but do not respond sufficiently to heat treatment at all temperatures used here (ie, no desired remanence ratio could be achieved B r / B s > 0.6 can be achieved).
  • a number of alloys such as B. known, which respond well to heat treatment ( B r / B s > 0.6 accessible), but all of them B s > 0.5 T have and are out of the question for these desired applications.
  • Alloys 7 to 11 are suitable, however l B s ⁇ 0.5 T. and B r / B s > 0.6 to reach.
