Abstract
MAE of a dilute Fe-N system in the range of 200-480K was investigated by measuring the disaccommodation of its initial susceptibility at various temperature T with or without preceding demagnetization of specimen. The results suggest that magnetic relaxation spectrum in the range of 350-480K is induced by the metastable Fe8N phase transformation. It is composed of a structural relaxation induced by pinning and depinning of the domain walls through precipitation and resolution of Fe8N and a thermal-activated relaxation due to N atoms close to the precipitates. A single cold work magnetic peak was observed at ~430K from a cold worked specimen.
