A broad range of compositions is investigated, whereas this study aims at the synthesis of soft magnetic materials and therefore at the formation of a homogeneous and nanocrystalline microstructure. For intermediate ferromagnetic contents, high-pressure torsion at room temperature yields single-phase supersaturated solid solutions. For higher ferromagnetic contents, two consecutive steps of high-pressure torsion deformation at different temperatures yield the desired nanocrystalline microstructure. Depending on the Co-to-Fe-ratio, either a single-phase supersaturated solid solution or a nanocomposite forms. The composite exhibits an enhanced magnetic moment, indicating the formation of a (Fe,Co)-alloy upon severe plastic deformation. Soft magnetic properties are verified for large Co-to-Fe-ratios and this microstructure is found to remain stable up to 400 °C.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmrt.2021.03.073} (DOI).
