Abstract

Abstract In order to enhance the magnetostrictive property in Galfenol by the doping of the third elements, rare earth elements of Y, La, Ce, and Pr were added into Fe 81 Ga 19 alloy in this research. Although the solubility limit of the rare earth elements was quite small, enhancement of the saturation magnetostriction of Fe 81 Ga 19 was confirmed in all the doped specimens. The specimen with doping Pr showed the highest magnetostriction of 174.9 ppm which was almost four times larger than the Fe-Ga pristine alloy.
