Abstract:The interfacial defects of hard magnetic Pr2Fe14B phase from amorphous to nanostructures have been investigated by positron lifetime spectroscopy. The nanostructure was produced by melt-spinning and nanocrystallization route. The two main components can be ascribed to vacancy-like defects in the intergranular layers or the interfaces, and microvoids or large free volumes with size compared to several missing atoms at the interactions of the atomic aggregates or the crystallites. The remarkable changes in the positron lifetimes from the amorphous structure to the nanocrystructure with varied sizes can be interpreted, indicating that the structural transformation and the grain growth induce the defect changes occurring at the interfaces with different shapes and sizes.
Key words: Pr2Fe14B; amorphous; nanostructure; interfacial structure
