摘要： The Co75 Fe4.2Si8B12Nb0.8 amorphous wires of 30 μ m in diameter are produced by melt extraction and annealing at 450 oC for 20 min in vacuum with a longitudinal or transverse field of 40 kA/m. Distances between the two voltage contacts of 6, 5, 4 and 2 mm are obtained by moving the two voltage contacts towards the centre of the sample at the same time. Results indicate that magneto-impedance response is dependent on the distance significantly. As distance decreases from 6 to 2 mm, △Z/Z reduces from 609% to 95% and giant magneto-impedance (GMI) profiles change from two-peak to single-peak. Besides, field sensitivity improves from 0.47%/(A/m) to 0.76%/(A/m) when the single-peak GMI just appears. It is therefore concluded that actual measurements can be made comparable only by taking into account the influence of distance between two voltage contacts for a magneto-impedance measurement.

Abstract: The Co75 Fe4.2Si8B12Nb0.8 amorphous wires of 30 μ m in diameter are produced by melt extraction and annealing at 450 $^\circ$C for 20 min in vacuum with a longitudinal or transverse field of 40 kA/m. Distances between the two voltage contacts of 6, 5, 4 and 2 mm are obtained by moving the two voltage contacts towards the centre of the sample at the same time. Results indicate that magneto-impedance response is dependent on the distance significantly. As distance decreases from 6 to 2 mm,  $\Delta Z/Z$ reduces from 609% to 95% and giant magneto-impedance (GMI) profiles change from two-peak to single-peak. Besides, field sensitivity improves from 0.47%/(A/m) to 0.76%/(A/m) when the single-peak GMI just appears. It is therefore concluded that actual measurements can be made comparable only by taking into account the influence of distance between two voltage contacts for a magneto-impedance measurement.
