Abstract

A method to overcome the residual drift problem inherent to M-H quasi-static hysteresis loop measurements is described. The solution is based on the magnetic hysteresis symmetry properties and was implemented in a computer-controlled inductive measurement system with frequency range 3-100 MHz for straight and circular samples particularly of soft amorphous and nanocrystalline alloys. Results obtained for several samples are presented showing the ability of the method to remove the residual drift.
