Abstract
The magnetic alloys of Cu-Fe ($Cu_{50}Fe_{50},\;Cu_{80}Fe_{20}\;and\;Cu_{90}Fe_{10}$) were prepared by a mechanical alloying method and their structural and magnetic behaviors were examined by X-ray diffraction and Mossbauer spectra. The magnetization curves did not distinctly show the saturation at 70 kOe for the concentrated alloys of $Cu_{80}Fe_{20}\;and\;Cu_{90}Fe_{10}$. The Mossbauer spectrum of $Cu_{80}Fe_{20}$ at room temperature shows one Lorentzian line of the paramagnetic phase, whereas the Mossbauer spectrum of $Cu_{90}Fe_{10}$ consists of sextet Lorentzian line at room temperature and a centered doublet line. The Mossbauer spectra of $Cu_{90}Fe_{10}$ measured in the temperature ranges from 13 to 295 K, implies that $Cu_{90}Fe_{10}$ to consists of two magnetic phases. One superimposed sextet corresponds to the ferromagnetic iron in Cu and the other one indicates the superparamagnetic iron rich phase.
