Features: This book systematically discusses the preparation and device design of magnetostrictive materials and supermagnetostrictive materials. Based on a detailed explanation of the concept, theory, and alloy phase diagrams of magnetostriction, it introduces and analyzes the preparation techniques, application fields, and typical device designs of the Tb0.27Dy0.73Fe2 (Terfenol-D) supermagnetostrictive material. This book is suitable for researchers and engineering technicians engaged in magnetic materials as well as those in physics, mechanics, electrical engineering, electronics, and acoustics. It can also serve as a reference for faculty and students of relevant disciplines in higher education institutions. The content of this book includes: the concept, theory, and atomic model of magnetostriction; the development history and types of magnetostrictive materials, rare-earth-iron binary, ternary, and multicomponent alloy phase diagrams; the preparation techniques of supermagnetostrictive materials, including alloy melting, sintering, and bonding methods; the magnetic properties and testing of supermagnetostrictive materials; the applications and device design of supermagnetostrictive materials, etc.
