Review on recent advances in the field of amorphous-metal sensors and transducers

摘要

Recent researches and developments of applications of amorphous ribbons and wires to sensors and transducers are reviewed. Various sensitive and quick response magnetic sensors with very small amorphous cores have been developed corresponding to strong demands in the fields of information devices, automobiles, power motor drives, industrial robots, and industrial measurement instruments. Relationship between amorphous material properties and the suitable applications to sensors and transducers, the basic principle of amorphous sensor constitutions, and the advantageous points of amorphous sensors are represented.
