Amorphous $Fe_{50}Zr_{50}$ alloy has been manufactured by mechanical alloying from pure elemental powders of Fe and Zr in conventional ball mill under an Ar atmosphere. Structure and magnetic properties of the amorphous phase were studied by transmission electron microscopy and SQUID magnetometry. Selected area diffraction patterns taken from the mechanically alloyed powders showed two halo rings, indicating coexistence of Fe rich and Zr rich amorphous phases in mechanically alloyed powder. Curie temperature of the Fe rich amorphous phase, measured by Arrot plot, was 195 K. Fe content in the ferromagnetic amorphous phase, estimated from the Curie temperature, was about 65 at%. Spin wave stiffness constant of $Fe_{50} Zr_{50}$ alloys processed for 100 and 200 hrs were 52.2 and 63.8 meV, respectively. The higher spin wave stiffness constant in 200 hrs milled powders may arise from the precipitation of $\alpha$-Fe by partial crystallization of amorphous phase.

RFe$_2$(R=rare earth) Laves Phase intermetallic compounds are one of the promising materials for magnetostrictive applications, due to large magnetostriction coefficients in the order of 10$^{-3}$ . However, because RFe$_2$intermetallic compounds have large magnetostriction constants as well as large magnetocrystalline anisotropy constants, a large external magnetic field is necessary to reach saturation magnetostriction. Hence researches on giant magnetostriction have been concentrated on producing materials exhibiting a high value of magnetostriction in a low magentic field. The main research trend of the giant magnetostriction to obtain the large value in the low magnetic filed, fortunately as the signs of magnetocrystalline anisotropy constans in RFe$_2$intermetallic compounds alternate with the rare earth metals, has been to substitute the rare earth metal for others and hence to reduce the magnetocrystalline anisotropy energy. In addition, amorphous RFe$_2$alloys have been researched. In this research, both of the methods which are substitution of the rare earth metal and amorphization in RFe$_2$ intermetallic compounds are simultaneously conducted to obtain the large magnetostriction coefficient in the low external magnetic field. Among them, SmFe$_2$and PrFe$_2$are selected, and amorphized in substrate-free bulk state. Magnetism in amorphous bulk (Sm$_{1-x}$ Pr$_{x}$) Fe$_2$alloys is investigated in the low magnetic field.ld.

A number of surface modification techniques using immobilization of biofunctional molecules of Titanium (Ti) for dental implants as well as surface properties of Ti and Ti alloys have been developed. The method using passive surface oxide film on titanium takes advantage of the fact that the surface film on Ti consists mainly of amorphous or low-crystalline and nonstoichiometric $TiO_2$. In another method, the reconstruction of passive films, calcium phosphate naturally forms on Ti and its alloys, which is characteristic of Ti. A third method uses the surface active hydroxyl group. The oxide surface immediately reacts with water molecules and hydroxyl groups are formed. The hydroxyl groups dissociate in aqueous solutions and show acidic and basic properties. Several additional methods are also possible, including surface modification techniques, immobilization of poly(ethylene glycol), and immobilization of biomolecules such as bone morphogenetic protein, peptide, collagen, hydrogel, and gelatin.

Nanostructured or partially amorphous Al-and Zr-based alloys are attractive candidates for advanced high-strength lightweight materials. Such alloys can be prepared by quenching from the melt or by powder metallurgy using mechanical attrition techniques. This work focuses on mechanically attrited powders and their consolidation into bulk specimens. Selected examples of mechanical deformation behavior are presented, revealing that the properties can be tuned within a wide range of strength and ductility as a function of size and volume fraction of the different phases.

Soft magnetic properties of Fe-based (Fe,Co)-B-Al-M (M=Nb, Mo or Ta) nanocrystalline alloy have been investigated. The alloy obtained directly form the rapid solidification process. Microstructure of the alloy is a mixtu re of ultrafine bcc Fe(Co) nanocrystallines and a small amount of retained amorphous phase. Heat treatment of as-prepared alloys improves soft magnetic properties in high frequency range. ${(Fe_{.85}Co_{.15})}_{70}B_{18}Al_{10}Ta_{6}$ alloy alloy annealed at $500^{\circ}C$ for 1 h shows the most improved soth magnetic properties among the alloy examined. Average grain size of the nanocystalline is about 10 nm.

This study reviews dynamic deformation behavior of ultra-fine-grained Al alloys, ultra-fine-grained conventional low carbon steel and dual phase steel and Zr-based amorphous alloys. Dynamic tests were conducted using a Kolsky bar then the test data was analyzed in relation to resultant microstructures, mechanical properties and propensity of adiabatic shear band. In addition, deformed microstructures and fracture surfaces were used to investigate the behavior of both the dynamic deformation and fracture, and adiabatic shear banding. As a result, increasing microstructural homogeneity, strain hardenability and forming multiple shear bands could be a better way to increase the fracture resistance under dynamic loading as the formation of adiabatic shear bands was reduced or prevented.

The temperature-dependent saturation magnetization curves of amorphous $Fe_{80-x}Co_xB_{20}$ (8 ${\le}$ x ${\le}$ 40, the step of x is 8) alloys were measured using a vibrating sample magnetometer from 77 K up to 1000 K. Curie temperature and the Bloch coefficient were estimated from the saturation magnetization curves. The low temperature dependence of magnetization is in good agreement with Bloch relation, $M_s(T)$=$M_s(O)$ (1-$BT^{3/2}$ - ${\cdots}.$). The spin wave stiffness constant, tne range of the exchange interaction, and the probable atomic spin were calculated from the saturation magnetization values.

The Mechanically Alloyed $Ti_{0.7}Mg_{0.3}Ni$ was investigated as a function of milling time by X-ray diffraction, SEM(scanning electron microscope), EDS(energy dispersive spectrometer), P-C-Isotherm curves. After 10hrs milling, mixed $Ti_{0.7}Mg_{0.3}Ni$ powders were changed to amorphous phase. And amorphous $Ti_{0.7}Mg_{0.3}Ni$ alloys became TiNi phase crystalline after heat treatment at 873K in a vacuum for 1 hour. The hydrogen absorption capacity of the annealed $Ti_{0.7}Mg_{0.3}Ni$ alloy increased as a function of mechanical alloying time.

This study explores the influence of volume fraction of nanocrystals of Cu-Zr amorphous alloys on shear band formation. As the number of crystals with very tiny size increases, the strain localization, i.e. shear band, decreases without large drop of flow stress. The DPRs also depict no sudden drop and relatively high values. The strain state during the deformation represents a few shear bands at low volume fraction while there are no distinguishable shear bands at high volume fraction of nanocrystals.

The soft magnetic properties of Co-based amorphous alloy have been studied as a function of cooling condition after annealing. The F&W treatment (furnace cooling to 25$0^{\circ}C$ then water quenching) could increase 60~10$0^{\circ}C$ more the initial permeability than those of furnace cooled or water quenched alloys. These results are investigated in terms of thermal stress and ordering of magnetic ion pairs.
