We investigated magnetoresistance(MR) and exchange bias properties by annealing in top and bosom type spin valves (SV) with nano-oxide layers (NOL). In top SVs with NOL, MR ratio of 9.2% is obtained after postdeposition annealing at 250$\^{C}$. In bottom SVs with NOL, MR ratio of 10.1 % is obtained after postdeposition annealing at 250$\^{C}$. Therefore, specular reflection of the NOL in bottom SVs is higher than that of the NOL in top SVs. Exchange biasing of bottom SVs with NOL is 28% higher than that of bottom SVs without NOL after annealing. This enhancement of exchange biasing is thought to be due to the reduced magnetic moment of the pinned layer with NOL and enhanced (111) FeMn texture.

스핀 밸브에서는 NiFe, CoFe, Cu등 주요 금속들이 면심입방체(111)로 배향이 용이하지만, 자기 터널 접합 소자에서는 $Al_2$O$_3$ 장벽층이 비정질로서 상부 강자성 전극이 충분히 (111) 배향을 할 수 없기 때문에 top bias 방식의 사용이 거의 불가능하며, bottom bias의 경우에도 교환 바이어스의 크기는 상대적으로 작다[1]. 이를 극복하기 위해 인공 초격자를 이용한 인공 반강자성층(synthetic antiferromagnet - SAF)을 이용하여 높은 교환 바이어스 효과를 구현하고자 하였다.

Switching controllers for active magnetic bearings are claimed to minimize the copper losses because they do not use bias currents. In this study, we compare the performances of the switching controller with those of the widely used proportional-derivative (PD) controller. The PD controller is combined with a synchronous notch filter to reduce the effect of the unbalance disturbance. For a fair and objective comparison, the PD controller is designed systematically. The switching controller is designed so that the dynamics of the two controllers are almost identical. A system model is developed. This model includes the flexible modes of the rotor and the dynamics of the sensors and amplifiers. The simulation results show that the switching controller indeed reduces the copper loss at lower speeds. However, it fails to operate around the speed close to the bending mode of the rotor.

We analyzed the angular dependence of ferromagnetic resonance linewidth in exchange coupled CoFe/MnIr bilayers. The maximum and minimum linewidth was observed in the easy and hard direction of unidirectional anisotropy by exchange coupling, respectively, and it was well agreed with the angular dependence of exchange bias field. The maximum linewidth was due to the twist of CoFe magnetization near CoFe/MnIr interface from direction of pinned MnIr spin to direction of applied magnetic field. While, minimum linewidth more higher than that of CoFe was related to rotatable anisotropy field, and explained by easy axis distribution of MnIr grains.

It is required to develop a highly reliable attitude & orbit control system of satellite that is less expensive as the technology of satellite design & integration is recently matured dramatically. To accomodate this kind of needs, the two axis attitude control method for wheel-based momentum-biased satellite system whose momentum bias vector points to a certain direction(sun direction), is developed using simple but reliable sensors and actuator: three axis magnetometer and coarse sun sensor are used as sensors, and magnetic torque bars are used as actuator. Classical PD type controller design methodologies are applied on a satellite system for the two axis control with the proper assumptions. Nonlinear simulation results are included to demonstrate the long term stability and the performance of closed-loop system design results.

The effects of biasing magnetic fields on the performances of magnetostrictive ultrasonic transducers are investigated. The transducers are patch-type ones which are used for SHM of plate structures. Various kinds of configurations of biasing magnets are covered experimentally. It is experimentally verified that how the biasing magnetic field deploys is the most significant factors on maximizing the transducer output. From the magnetostriction curve of nickel, it is concluded qualitatively that it is not the absolute values of biasing magnetic field but the slope of magnetostriction curve to be taken account of.

A magnetostrictive sensor is used to measure stress waves propagating in a ferromagnetic cylinder without physical contact. The performance of a magnetostrictive sensor is affected most significantly by the bias magnetic field applied around the measurement location. The goal of this paper is to carry out the topology optimization of the bias magnet and yoke assembly to maximize the sensor output for traveling bending waves. We will use the multi-resolution topology optimization strategy to find the assembly of the bias magnet and the yoke that is easy to realize. The effectiveness of the present design is confirmed by an actual measurement of the sensor signal with the proposed bias magnet and yoke configuration.

Output voltage of the flux-meter has always drift due to the input bias current of non-ideal operational amplifier. In this study we have employed a digital sample and hold amplifier which has no voltage drop to compensate drift of the flux-meter automatically. The drift of the developed flux-meter was smaller than $5{\times}10^{-8}\;Wb/s$ for the integration time constant of $RC=10^{-3}$ s.
