The core loss of $3\%$ SiFe is strongly dependent on silicon content, impurities, permeability, and domain structure of the SiFe. Domain refining has been proved to be very good method for reduction of core loss in high permeability grain oriented SiFe, and laser scribing is well-blown as an effective and industrially important method of domain refinement. In this work, magnetic domain refinement has been carried out by using a pulsed Nd : YAG laser, and the core losses have been measured and analyzed to and optimal parameters of the laser treatment. The laser hem was focused with a spot size of $100{\mu}m$ and pulse energy of 10${\~}$35mJ and the lines were scribed with a period of ${\~}$5mm. The core loss was improved up to $17\%$ with 30 ns-Nd : YAG laser beam in $3\%$ SiFe.

높은 포화자속밀도와 낮은 철손을 갖는 Fe/aub 80/B$_{12}$Si$_{8}$ 비정질합금을 일반열처리, 자장열처리시켜 그의 자기적특성과 자구구조와의 관계를 조사하였다. 이를 위하여 Fe$_{80}$B$_{12}$Si$_{8}$ 비정질리본을 단롤법으로 제작하여 결정화온도를 측정하였으며 측정된 결정화온도 이하의 여러 온도에서 30분간 Ar-gas 분위기하에서 일반열처리, 자장열처리를 행하였다. 이와같이 하여 준비된 시료의 자기적특성을 조사하기 위하여 D.C., A.C. Recorking Fluxmeter를 이용하였으며 자구구조는 Bitter method로 관찰하였다. as-cast 상태의 시료를 일반열처리함에 따라 내부응력이 완화되면서 maze자구가 점차 사라지고 wave형태의 180.deg.자구가 관찰되었다. 동시에 자화과정에 있어서 자기이력곡선은 Barkhausen jump가 없어 smooth하였다. 그리고 자장열처리시에는 as-cast 상태나 일반열처리에 비해 자기적특성이 현저하게 향상되었으며 이는 열처리를 행함에 따라 내부응력이 완화되면서 maze 자구가 없어지고 일축자기 이방성으로 리본길이방향에 평행하게 형성된 180.deg.자구에 기인하는 것이라 사료된다. 그리고 자장열처리의 경우, 폭방향으로 열처리한 리본의 자구폭은 길이방향으로 열처리한 리본의 폭보다 미세하였으며 전자의 이력손실이 후자의 것보다 더 컸다.다.

Amorphous FeBSiNb alloy ribbons having bulk glass forming ability and high saturation magnetic flux density were produced by single-roller melt spinning apparatus in the thickness range of 22∼102㎛. With the increase of thickness, the coercive force and squareness ratio decreased, while maximum permeability and AC permeability increased. However electrical resistivity was almost constant. Furthermore refined and complex magnetic domain structure was observed in thicker ribbons owing to the change in internal magnetic anisotropy. For the alloy with the thickness of 81㎛, small coercive force of 24 mOe and high effective permeability of 12,000 at 1㎑ were obtained, those are considered to be better comparing to the conventional soft magnetic amorphous alloys (∼20 ㎛). The good soft magnetic properties of the thick FeBSiNb amorphous alloys were attributed to the decrease in surface pinning effect during wall motion, appearance of perpendicular anisotropy and resulted domain refinement.

The ac magnetic susceptibility of {100} iron whiskers as a function of currents is studied with and without external field. The ac susceptibility depends on the magnitude and the direction of the applied dc current when a small external field is applied along the magnetization of the central domain of the whisker. Variation of the central domain size accounts for the current-dependent response. The measured magnetic responses are explained, using a micromagnetic calculation based on a simple model, as a function of applied currents over a wide range except critical values.

The effects of an Ag seed layer on the magnetic properties and the microstructural evolution of SmCo/Cr thin films deposited on glass substrates were investigated. Coercivity of the films is 2.0 kOe when the thickness of Ag seed layer was 1nm thick, but it increased to 2.7 kOe when the Ag seed layer thickness is 3 nm. The increase of coercivity for film with 3 nm-thick Ag is due to roughness of Cr and grain size of Cr by the Ag microbumps. Ar partial pressure influenced on the formation of Ag microbumps, for example, they were formed at 5 mTorr when Ag thickness was 1 nm. The mechanism of magnetization reversal of the SmCo films changed from domain wall motion to domain rotation as the Ag inserted. This was thought to be due to inhibition of domain wall motion by the reduction of Cr grain size and the increase of roughness.

With the object of developing a non-gap choke core, effects of annealing in oxygen atmosphere on magnetic properties for Fe$_{78}$Si$_{9}$B$_{13}$ amorphous alloy were investigated. After annealing for 2 hrs at 440 $^{\circ}C$, optimum magnetic properties for choke core were obtained, where the effective permeability was 180 and was almost constant up to several MHz, and the decrease in permeability upon large DC bias current of 12 A or DC bias magnetic field of 8,000 A/m was very little. Moreover the AC magnetic loss was very low as compared to the conventional choke cores. Upon the optimum annealing, the magnetic hysteresis loop was inclined accompanying the increase of coercive force and the appearance of fine crystallites of $\alpha$-Fe phase. The good choke core properties was considered to be due to the suppression of domain boundary motion and domain refinement by the crystallites.

Iron nitride (Fe-N) magnetic thin films were deposited using a DC magnetron sputtering system. Microstructures and magnetic properties were examined as a function of deposition power and nitrogen gas input ratio. The nitrogen content in the film was found to be the major factor determining the microstructure and the magnetic properties. The films deposited at low nitrogen input ratios have an $\alpha$-Fe structure of which the lattice is expanded due to the nitrogen atoms incorporated at the interstitial sites. As the nitrogen content in the film increases, the degree of lat-tice expansion increases and the value of saturation magnetization decreases linearly. The films with a high degree of lattice expansion give very low values of coercivity, which is attributed to the disturbance of colunmar growth and the decrease of surface roughness. Further increase in the nitrogen input ratio causes the phase transfonnation from $\alpha$-Fe to $Fe_{2-3}N$, resulting in the marked reduction in the saturation magnetization. The phase transformation occurs when, regardless of deposition conditions, the nitrogen content reaches at 15 at.% and the lattice is expanded by 5%.
