Pressure effects amorphous alloys

The analysis of the effect of hydrostatic pressure and electron irradiation on the diffusion-controlled crystallization process of amorphous alloys of the metal-metalloid and metal-metal types in [6.48,49] leads to the following conclusions. 

The comparatively large pressure effects observed in amorphous Fe-rich alloys do not seem to be restricted to rare earth base alloys. The pressure dependence of the Curie temperature was studied by Kamrad et al. (1981) in several Fe-rich alloys where Fe was combined with Zr, B, P and Ge. In amorphous Zrg, Feg 9 the relative reduction in 7 per unit of pressure applied, reached virtually the same value as in amorphous YgjjFeg.gv mentioned above. One is tempted therefore to explain the large pressure effect in the amorphous Fe alloys mainly in the spirit of fig. 96 rather than on the basis of the Wohlfarth relation ...
