Soft magnetic materials are critical components of electric motors, generators and transformers, however obtaining a material that is magnetically soft, but mechanically robust and stable at high temperature is very difficult. Here, Han et al succeed in combining these disparate properties by introducing ferromagnetic Widmanstätten patterned intermetallic precipitates into a ferromagnetic alloy matrix.
