An R-T-B-based sintered magnet and a preparation method therefor. The R-T-B-based sintered magnet comprises: R, B, Ti, Ga, Al, Cu, and T. The contents thereof are as follows: R is 29.0-33%; the content of B is 0.86-0.93%; the content of Ti is 0.05-0.25%; the content of Ga is 0.3-0.5%, but not 0.5%; the content of Al is 0.6-1%, but not 0.6%; the content of Cu is 0.36-0.55%. The percentage is the mass percentage. Under the condition that no heavy rare earth is added or a small amount of heavy rare earth is added, by using a low B technology, not only the remanence performance of the R-T-B-based sintered magnet is improved, but also the coercivity and the squareness of the magnet are ensured.

The present invention relates to a method for producing a molybdenum alloy target, and solves the problem of low density and coarser grains of the molybdenum alloy targets in the prior art. The present invention comprises subjecting a mixed powder with a mass ratio depending upon the formula composition of a molybdenum alloy to a pre-press forming process to obtain a preformed molybdenum alloy target blank; placing the preformed molybdenum alloy target blank in a capsule and subjecting the capsule to processes of preheating for degassing and vacuum seal welding; subjecting the target blank to a hot isostatic pressing process to obtain a densified molybdenum alloy prefabricated target; removing the capsule; and subjecting the molybdenum alloy prefabricated target with the capsule removed to a temperature-rising and pressure-decreasing process, followed by finish machining to obtain a molybdenum alloy target.

A method and apparatus for surface densification of powder metal annular preforms is described. A forming tool has external helical teeth corresponding to internal helical teeth of the preform. A die correspondingly configured to the external splines of the preform circumferentially surrounds the forming tool. The forming tool, die and lower punch(es) collectively define an aperture dimensioned to receive the preform. Upper punch(es) encase the preform in the aperture. Surface densification of the internal surface of the preform is achieved by movement of the preform axially over the forming tool. External splines of the preform and corresponding die splines direct the preform axially while internal helical teeth and corresponding forming teeth direct the forming tool to rotate as the preform moves. The forming teeth have varying dimensions in the circumferential and radial directions to apply compression and relaxation to densify the surface of the preform helical teeth.

A soft magnetic composite comprising an iron or iron alloy ferromagnetic material coated with an oxide material. An interface between the ferromagnetic material and the layer of oxide contains antiphase domain boundaries. Two processes for producing a soft magnetic composite are also provided. One process includes depositing an oxide layer onto an iron or iron alloy ferromagnetic material by molecular beam epitaxy at a partial oxygen pressure of from 1×10.sup.−5 Torr to 1×10.sup.−7 Torr to form a coated composite. The other process includes milling an iron or iron alloy ferromagnetic material powder and an oxide powder by high-energy milling to form a mixture; compacting the mixture and curing in an inert gas atmosphere at a temperature from 500° C. to 1200° C. to form a soft magnetic composite.

Methods of forming microwires or nanowires, microwires or nanowires formed using the method, and electronic devices and semiconductor components including the wires. A method of forming a microwire or nanowire includes disposing a plurality of metal particles in a portion of a channel that is a nanochannel or a microchannel. The method includes etching the metal particles with an activation agent to form a flux that penetrates an additional portion of the channel. The flux includes an etching product of the activation agent and the metal particles. The method includes allowing the activation agent to at least partially evaporate to form a wire that is a microwire or a nanowire.
