Abstract

Anomalously large shift of the Curie temperature has recently been observed in Fe-Ni Invar alloys irradiated with high-energy heavy ions. This large effect can be attributed to the large positive magneto-volume effect essentially originated in the itinerant electron ferromagnetism in Fe-Ni Invar alloys. To investigate the mechanism of the large modification of the ferromagnetism and the structure of the modified portion, measurements of the beam energy dependence of AC-susceptibility-temperature curves have been made. It was found that the amount of the shift of the Curie temperature did not change by increasing the beam energy. On the contrary, the intensity of the susceptibility of the modified portion increased with increasing the ion beam energy. The high-density electronic excitation is considered to be responsible for the large modification of the ferromagnetism in Fe-Ni Invar alloys.
