Title: Experimental exploration of the origin of magnetostriction in single crystalline iron.

Journal Article · · Appl. Phys. Lett.
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1063/1.3481083· OSTI ID:1000217

The magnetostrictive atomic strain in a pure Fe single crystal was measured by differential x-ray absorption spectroscopy. The obtained tetragonal magnetostriction constant, (3/2){lambda}{sub 100}, was determined to be 45 ppm, consistent with the previously reported theoretical value calculated from a spin-orbit coupling theory. These results provide a foundation for understanding the origin of magnetostriction in pure Fe as well as Fe-based binary alloys.
