The use of soft magnetic materials have been increasing in the various industrial fields according to the increasing demand for high performance, automatic, miniaturing equipments in the recent our life. In this study, we investigated the effect of factors on the core loss and magnetic properties of electrical steel and soft magnetic composites. Furthermore, we reviewed the major efforts to reduce the core loss and improve the soft magnetic properties in the two main soft magnetic materials. Domain purification which results from reduced density of defects in cleaner electrical steels is combined with large grains to reduce hysteresis loss. The reduced thickness and the high electrical conductivity reduce the eddy current component of loss. Furthermore, the coating applied to the surface of electrical steel and texture control lead to improve high permeability and low core loss. There is an increasing interest in soft magnetic composite materials because of the demand for miniaturization of cores for power electronic applications. The SMC materials have a broad range of potential applications due to the possibility of true 3-D electromagnetic design and higher frequency operation. Grain size, sintering temperature, and the degree of porosity need to be carefully controlled in order to optimize structure-sensitive properties such as maximum permeability and low coercive force. The insulating coating on the powder particles in SMCs eliminates particle-to-particle eddy current paths hence minimizing eddy current losses, but it reduces the permeability and to a small extent the saturation magnetization. The combination of new chemical composition with optimum powder manufacturing processes will be able to result in improving the magnetic properties in soft magnetic composite materials, too.

Thin films of soft magnetic Fe-Hf-C alloys with nanoscale crystallites were investigated in this study. The films were fabricated by an RF diode magnetron sputtering apparatus and subsequently annealed in vacuum. The soft magnetic properties of the films were observed to differ depending on the different substrates such as Corning 7059, $CaTiO_3$ and $Al_2O_3-TiC$ with various underlayer(Cr, $SiO_2$) thickness. This results may be due to the interdiffusion between the substrate and the magnetic layer and/or between the underlayer and the magnetic layer, rather than the microstructural change such as grain size. The Fe-Hf-C films with high permeability up to 4000(at 1 MHz) and saturation magnetization up to 16 kG were obtained in the vicinity of phase boundary between the crystalline and amorphous state when the size of ${\alpha}-Fe$ grains is about 5 nm. And also the films were found to have thermal stability up to $600^{\circ}C$.

The purpose of this research is to analyze the radiation shielding effect of soft magnetic material to confirm the applicability to the military facilities. The soft magnetic material is known to be effective in shielding EMP. If this material is also effective in radiation shielding, it is expected that it has a lot of applicability in military protection. In particular, this material contains boron, so it will be effective in shielding neutrons. In this research, experiments were conducted using Cs-137 and Co-60 sources to check the gamma ray shielding effect. In addition, the Monte Carlo N-Particle(MCNP) modeling was applied to evaluate the gamma ray and neutron shielding effect of a military command tent. As a result, as the soft magnetic thickness increased, the shielding performance improved according the linear attenuation law of gamma ray and neutron. Therefore, this research verified that the application of soft magnetic material for military purposes in radiation shielding would be effective.

The magnetization dynamics was investigated by solving possible origins of overdamped susceptibility observed in ultra-soft magnetic amorphous thin films. The experimental high frequency spectrum and computational spectrum calculated from Gilbert's equation of motion were compared in order to find proper damping factor $\alpha{\approx}20$ and demagnetizing coefficients $D_{x}{\approx}D_{y}{\approx}D_{z}{\approx}0$ for ultra-soft magnetic films. A magnetization vortex mode was, then, proposed to explain the origin of the reversible susceptibility and other anomalies of the ultra-soft magnetic heterogeneous thin films. In this mode it is suggested that there occur, within the nanoscale structural features of the ultra-soft films, incoherent rotational spin motions that are highly damped by the energy transfer from short wavelength spin wave modes and local defect structure mode interactions.

기록매체의 고밀도 대용량화를 위하여 자기헤드의 고성능화가 필요하다. 현재 고성능 자기헤드로는 bulk 형 페라이트 헤드, 헤드 갭(Gap)부의 연자성 특성이 우수한 MIG(Metal-in-Gap) 헤드, core부 자성금속을 적층시킨 적층 자기박막헤드 등이 있다. 이들 중 최근 MIG 헤드가 타 자기헤드에 비하여 연자성 특성이 우수하며, 박막의 조직특성에 따라 헤드의 성능이 크게 좌우되는 것으로 보고되고 있어, 이에 따라 특성 및 조직제어에 관한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 고포화 자속밀도의 자기헤드 갭은 자기모멘트가 큰 Fe원소를 기지원소로, 미량의 첨가원소에 기인하는 포화 자속밀도의 조절과 이에 따른 미세구조의 제어에 있는 것으로 연구되고 있다 즉 고포화 자속밀도를 가지는 연자성 박막의 미세구조를 제어함으로서 결정자기이방성이 최소화된 재료에 관한 박막화로 있다.

We investigated the soft magnetic properties of nanocrystalline Fe-Al-O film as etching the oxide film with ion beam etching method. It is thought that the grain size of Fe-Al-O film increases as the thickness decreases. The coercivity and squareness increase with decreasing thickness. The surface curvature of Am images increases when the etching experiment proceeds. This phenomena could be due to the grain growth which occurs during sputtering. This grain growth could be assisted by the the plasma energy during sputtering. Therefore proper thickness should be searched to acquire the good soft magnetic properties for the nanocrystalline film material. Good soft magnetic properties of Fe-Al-O film was acquired at the thickness of more than 900 nm.
