The fabrication and analysis of the magnetic and crystallographic properties of Fe-rich (Fe x Ga 1-x) Galfenol alloys

Understanding the fundamental physics and properties of smart materials is a very important area of research for nano and micro mechanical systems especially in the applications of sensing and actuation, such as SONAR. This thesis is focused on the investigations of Galfenol solid solutions and the...
