Abstract

A method for manufacturing FeNi ordered alloy having a L1 0 type order structure is provided. After a nitrification process for nitriding a powder sample of a FeNi disordered alloy arranged in a tube furnace is performed using a NH 3 gas, a de-nitrification process for removing a nitrogen from the FeNi disordered alloy which is processed by the nitrification process is performed using a H 2 gas. Thus, the L1 0 type FeNi ordered alloy with a regularity defined by S equal to or higher than 0.5 is obtained.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A method for manufacturing FeNi ordered alloy having an L1 0 order crystal structure, the method for manufacturing the FeNi ordered alloy comprising:
performing a nitrification process for nitriding FeNi disordered alloy; and
then, performing a de-nitrification process for removing a nitrogen from the FeNi disordered alloy, which is processed in the nitrification process, to obtain FeNi ordered alloy with an Ll 0 crystal structure and a regularity defined by S equal to, or higher than, 0.5.

2. The method for manufacturing the FeNi ordered alloy according to claim 1 , wherein:
a process temperature of the nitrification process is equal to or higher than, 300° C. and equal to or lower than, 500° C.

3. The method for manufacturing the FeNi ordered alloy according to claim 1 , wherein:
a process temperature of the de-nitrification process is equal to, or higher than 250° C. and equal to, or lower than 400° C.

4. A method for manufacturing FeNi ordered alloy having an Ll 0 order crystal structure, the method for manufacturing the FeNi ordered alloy comprising:
synthesizing a compound in which Fe and Ni are aligned to have a lattice structure identical to a FeNi order structure with an L1 0 crystal structure; and
removing an unnecessary element other than Fe and Ni from the compound to produce FeNi ordered alloy with the L1 0 crystal structure.

5. The method for manufacturing the FeNi ordered alloy according to claim 4 , wherein:
the synthesizing of the compound includes synthesizing FeNiN as the compound.

6. The method for manufacturing the FeNi ordered alloy according to claim 5 , further comprising:
removing an oxide film from FeNi disordered alloy, wherein:
the synthesizing of the compound includes performing a nitrification process of the FeNi disordered alloy in which the oxide film is removed after the removing of the oxide film to synthesize the FeNiN as an intermediate product.

7. The method for manufacturing the FeNi ordered alloy according to claim 6 , wherein:
the removing of the oxide film and the synthesizing of the compound are successively performed in a same heating furnace.
