High performance SmFe2 should be single crystal or have [111] crystal plane alignment as the same direction of the deformation and easy magnetization. However, these single crystals are very difficult to grow due to double peritectic structure formation during solidification. SmFe2 with [111] crystal plane alignment are also difficult to synthesize by solidification from the melts due to convection. In microgravity, convection in melt is suppressed, and weak magnetic flux and temperature gradient show remarkable effect. We were successful in controlling the planar structure with <111> alignment of SmFe2 by unidirectional solidification in microgravity. SmFe2 synthesized in microgravity had larger magnetostriction and more sensitive response against loaded magnetic field than that synthesized in normal gravity., 形態: カラー図版あり, 共催: 日本学術会議, Physical characteristics: Original contains color illustrations, Meeting sponsors: The Science Council of Japan, The Institute of Space and Astronautical Science, Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (ISAS)(JAXA), 資料番号: AA0064113016},
