The addition of Co into $Nd_4Fe_{77.5-x}Co_x(HfGa)_yB_{18.5}(0$\leq$x$\leq$5, y=0, 0.5)4 was found to enhance the magnetic properties of $Fe_3B/Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ nanocomposite magnets. The enhancement resulted from the fact that Co retarded the crystallization of $\alpha$-Fe or Fe3B but accelerated that $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$. The decreased interval between the onset of crystallization temperature of Fe3B and $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$. phases enabled the grain growth of each phase to be uniform dufing a post annealing of the melt spun ribbons. The addition of 3~5 at. % Co into ternary composition $Md_4Fe_{77.5}B_{18.5}$ increased the coercivity (iHc) from 3.27 to 3.54 kOe with the enhanced remanence value (4$\pi$Mr) around 11.54 kG. From the ribbon magnets of Nd4Fe71.5Co5Hf0.5B18.5 made at 26 m/sec and annealed at 68$0^{\circ}C$ for 10 min, the magnetic properties of Br=11.54 kG, iHc=3.54 kOe, and (BH)max=14.35 MGOe were obtained from volume production line.

$SrCo_{0.8}Fe_{0.1}Nb_{0.1}O_{3-{\delta}}$ oxide was synthesized by solid state reaction method. Dense ceramic membrane was prepared using as-prepared powder by pressing and sintering at $1250^{\circ}C$. XRD result of membrane showed single perovskite structure. The oxygen permeability were measured under 0.21 atm of oxygen partial pressure ($P_{O_2}$) and between 800 and $950^{\circ}C$. The oxygen permeation flux of $SrCo_{0.8}Fe_{0.1}Nb_{0.1}O_{3-{\delta}}$ membrane was increased with the increasing temperature. The maximum oxygen permeation flux was $1.839mL/min{\cdot}cm^2$ at $950^{\circ}C$. Long period permeability experiment was carried out to confirm the phase stability and $CO_2$-tolerance of membrane containing Nb in the condition of air with $CO_2$ (500 ppm) as feed stream at $900^{\circ}C$. The phase stability and $CO_2$-tolerance of $SrCo_{0.8}Fe_{0.1}Nb_{0.1}O_{3-{\delta}}$ were investigated by XRD and TG analysis. The result of $SrCo_{0.8}Fe_{0.1}Nb_{0.1}O_{3-{\delta}}$ which exposed carbon dioxide for 100 hours indicated 8wt% of $SrCO_3$. But it was known that the level of $SrCO_3$ production dose not have a significant effect on oxygen permeability.

It was observed that exchange bias field was increased with smooth surface and better ${\gamma}$-FeMn formation. Sputtering conditions were varied for the control of the surface roughness and ${\gamma}$-FeMn formation. From the results of Cu deposition as underlayer, it was found that ${\gamma}$-FeMn formation was closely related with the thickness of underlayer. After heat treatment, exchange bias field was increased over three times. This improvement was likely that the crystallites of ${\gamma}$-FeMn were well formed. In Co/Cu/Co/FeMn spin valve structure, magnetoresistance was increased over 1.4 times through the heat treatment. This was due to the disappearance of Co/Cu intermixed dead layer and removal of defect, and this was examined by AES analysis.

TbFeCo 박막의 Facing Targets Sputtering System 조건, 조성 및 시효 처리에 따른 광자기적 특성과 산화 특성을 조사하였다. XPS와 AES를 통하여 보호막 없이 제조된 TbFeCo 박막의 표면에는 Co에 우선하여 Tb과 Fe가 안정한 산화물의 형태로 존재하며, 표면에서 3.2nm 깊이부터는 산화되지 않은 TbFeCo 박막이 존재함을 확인하였다. TbFeCo 박막을 시효 시킴에 따라 Fe 산화층의 두께는 거의 변화가 없었으며, Tb Oxide 층만이 증가하였다. TbFeCo 박막은 사용된 기판의 종류나 제조조건에 따라 열적 안정성에 큰 차이를 보였다.

The dependence of sensitivity, MR ratio, coercivity (Hc) and switching fields as a function of thickness of each magnetic layers(Co, NiFe and Cu) were investigated in pseudo spin valves with a structure of Ta/NiFe/Cu/Co. As measured results dependence of the thickness of each magnetic layer, we obtained MR ratio of 7.26% for Ta(4 nm)/NiFe(7.5 nm)/Cu(3 nm)/Co(5 nm) pseudo spin valves. Also, we could control properties of magnetoresistance for independent magnetization courses of each magnetic layer. Especially, we found that we could control coercivity as constant MR ratio dependence of Co thickness.

The Effects of Co-substitution in the nanocrystalline Nd-Fe-B-Mo-Cu alloys were investigated. $\alpha$-Fe based nanocrystalline Nd-Fe-B-Mo-Cu alloys were prepared by crystallization process of amorphous Nd-Fe-B-Mo-Cu alloy produced by rapid solidification process. The substitution of Co resulted in the decrease of grain size and improves the hard magnetic properties. The remanence, coercivity, and Curie temperature of nanocrystalline N $d_4$(F $e_{0.85}$ $Co_{0.15}$)$_{82}$ $B_{10}$M $o_3$Cu alloy showed more improved magnetic properties than those of Co-free alloy. The grain size was measured to be about 15 nm. The coercivity, remanence and maximum energy product were 239 kA/m, 1.41, and 103.5 kJ/ $m^3$, respectively, for the nanocrystalline N $d_4$(F $e_{0.85}$ $Co_{0.15}$)$_{82}$ $B_{10}$M $o_3$Cu alloy annealed for 0.6 ks at 640 $^{\circ}C$.

The magnetic and magnetostrictive properties of amorphous Tb/sub 45.7/Fe/sub 54.3-x/Co/sub x/ and Tb/sub 50.2/Fe/sub 49.8-x/Co/sub x/ (0≤x≤9.6) thin films have systematically been investigated. The films were fabricated by rf magnetron sputtering using a composite target which consists of a Fe plate and Tb, Co chips. The microstructure mainly consists of an amorphous phase. Excellent intrinsic and low magnetic-field-magnetostrictive properties were achieved in Tb/sub 45.7/Fe/sub 54.3-x/Co/sub x/ and Tb/sub 50.2/Fe/sub 49.8-x/Co/sub x/ (0≤x≤9.6). The magnetostriction of 130 ppm was obtained with low field of 100 Oe. The intrinsic magnetostriction(applied field, 5 kOe) were increased from 330ppm to 400ppm.

Variation of magnetic properties through Cr substitution for Co in inverse-spinel $CoFe_2O_4$ has been investigated by vibrating-sample magnetometry (VSM) and conversion electron $M\ddot{o}ssbauer$ spectroscopy (CEMS). $Cr_{x}Co_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$ samples were prepared as thin films by a sol-gel method. The lattice constant of the $Cr_{x}Co_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$ samples was found to remain unchanged, explainable in terms of a reduction of tetrahedral $Fe^{3+}$ ion to $Fe^{2+}$ due to substitution of $Cr^{3+}$ ion into octahedral $Co^{2+}$ site. The existence of the tetrahedral $Fe^{2+}$ ions in $Cr_{x}Co_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$ was confirmed by CEMS analysis. Room-temperature magnetic hysteresis curves for the $Cr_{x}Co_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$ films measured by VSM revealed that the saturation magnetization $M_s$ increases by Cr doping. The $M_s$ is maximized when x = 0.1 and decreases for higher x but is still bigger than that of $CoFe_2O_4$. The increase of $M_s$ can be explained partly by the reduction of the tetrahedral $Fe^{3+}$ ion to $Fe^{2+}$.

On adsorbing carbon monoxide (CO) on the silica supported ruthenium/iron alloy ($Ru/Fe-SiO_2$) samples above mole ratio 9/1 of Ru/Fe five bands ($2138.7{\sim}2142.5cm^{-1}$, $2067.3{\sim}2073.1cm^{-1}$, $1976.7{\sim}2017.2cm^{-1}$, $1737.9{\sim}1799.3cm^{-1}$, $1625.7cm^{-1}$) were observed, and in $Ru/Fe-SiO_2$ samples below mole ratio 8/2 of Ru/Fe two bands ($1934.0{\sim}1990.2cm^{-1}$, $1625.7cm^{-1}$) were observed. The $2138.7{\sim}2142.5cm^{-1}$ bands, the $2067.3{\sim}2073.1cm^{-1}$ bands, and the $1988.3{\sim}2030.7cm^{-1}$ bands may be ascribed to stretching vibrations of CO molecules lineally bonded to the Ru atoms on supported Ru/Fe cluster surface, the $1737.9{\sim}1799.3cm^{-1}$ bands to stretching vibrations of CO molecules bridge bonded to the Ru atoms on supported Ru/Fe cluster surface or to stretching vibrations of CO molecules bonded to the Ru atoms on high Miller index planes, and the $1934.0{\sim}1990.2cm^{-1}$ bands to stretching vibrations of CO molecules lineally bonded to the Fe atoms on supported Ru/Fe cluster surface. The absorbances of the $1934.0{\sim}1990.2cm^{-1}$ bands in $Ru/Fe-SiO_2$ samples gradually increased with the increases of Ru/Fe mole ratio below the ratio of 8/2. This phenomena may be ascribed to the increases of Fe concentration of surface compared with the one of the sample and to the increases of surface area of supported Ru/Fe cluster according as increase of Ru/Fe mole ratio below the ratio of 8/2 compared with the $Fe-SiO_2$ sample.
