Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A grain-oriented electrical steel sheet exhibits reduced iron loss and reduced noise. The electrical steel sheet has magnetic domains refined by regions with a high lattice defect density being locally formed on the surface of or within the steel sheet, in which the regions with a high lattice defect density has a hardness, as measured by a micro Vickers hardness meter, equal to or lower than that of other regions.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method of manufacturing a grain-oriented electrical steel sheet comprising magnetic domains refined by lattice defect regions being locally formed on a surface of or within the steel sheet by irradiating the steel sheet with a heat beam, a light beam or a particle beam, wherein the lattice defect regions have a hardness, as measured by a micro Vickers hardness meter, equal to or lower than that of other regions, the method comprising: selecting a steel sheet having a ratio of hysteresis loss to total iron loss of less than 45% by screening, and irradiating the steel sheet with a heat beam, a light beam or a particle beam, in a direction forming an angle of 30° or less with a direction orthogonal to a rolling direction, at periodic intervals of 10 mm or less in the rolling direction. 2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein irradiating with the particle beam is irradiating with charged particles smaller in mass than Fe. 3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the irradiating with a heat beam, a light beam, or a particle beam is performed under a condition in which the beam is scanned over an irradiation portion on the steel sheet at an average rate of 30 m/s or lower. 4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the irradiating with a heat beam, a light beam, or a particle beam is performed under a condition in which the beam is scanned over an irradiation portion on the steel sheet at an average rate of 30 m/s or lower.
