The laser patterning of sputter-deposited CoNdZr/Cu/CoNbZr multi-layered films had been tried using Nd:YAG laser. However generally it is very difficult to remove metal films because of their high reflectance of the laser on the surfaces. As a counterproposal for this problem authors for the first time tried to deposit energy-absorbing layers on the metal films and then irradiated the laser on the surfaces of energy-absorbing layers. Here the energy-absorbing layers consisted of laser energy-absorbing fine powders and binding polymers. Three kinds of powders for the energy-absorbing layers had been used to see the difference in the pattern formation with the degree of laser energy absorption. They were electrically conductive silver powders insulating BaTiO$_3$powder and semiconducting carbon powder. Remarkable difference in width of the formed pattern and the roughness of pattern edge were observed with the characteristic of the powder for the energy-absorbing layer. The pattern width using carbon paste was about three times larger than that using BaTiO$_3$paste. It was observed that the energy-absorbing layer with carbon was the most effective on this micro-patterning.

Magnetic properties of nanostructured materials are affected in complicated manner by their microstructure such as grain size, internal strain and crystal structure. Thus, studies on the synthesis of nanostructured materials with controlled microstructure are necessary for a significant improvement in magnetic properties. It is well known that when Fe-Co alloy undergoes ordering transformation, soft magnetic properties could be obtained. There are many reports that the magnetic properties of the materials can be changed with variation of grain size. In the present work, nanostructured Fe-50at.%Co alloy powder produced by hydrogen reduction process (HRP) starting with two oxide powder mixtures of $Fe_2O_3\;and\; Co_3O_4$. The mean grain size of the HRP powders was about 40 nm and coercivity of the: powders was about 43 Oe.

We reported compositional separation(CS) into Co-enriched and Cri-enriched components inside the grains of Co-Cr based thin films prepared by rf sputtering. CS strongly depends on the sputtering conditions of substrate temperature and target composition. Tuning the microstructure of the Co-Cr films is important in order to employ the CS for high-density magnetic recording. We investigated the origin of CS from thermodynamic viewpoint. We employ a spinodal decomposition-like model to describe the origin of the CS in Co-Cr films. We consider the total free energy of the Co-Cr films as the sum of several free energies of; 1) thermodynamic mixing entropy of a binary solid solution, 2) magnetic ordering interaction(MOI) energy below the Curie temperature, and 3) excess interaction energy(XS) caused by the sputtering process as a function of temperature and composition. Those energies distorted the total free energy like the spinodal decomposition and caused the compositionally separated fine microstructure inside the grains. If the second derivative of the total free energy with respect to Cr composition becomes negative at a given substrate temperature, we may observe a metastable compositional separation inside the Co-Cr alloy films. We expect to exploit the microstructure of CS for ultra-high density magnetic recording.

현재 시대에는 자원의 부족으로 인하여 원재료의 낮은 등급을 정제하는 것이 중요하다. 자기분리 기술이 산업 계 원재료들의 정제에 적용되는 것이 기대된다. 예를 들면 고순도의 유리나 절연체를 제작하기 위한 원재료에서 철산화물의 제거는 매우 중요하다. 자기를 띠는 입자들과 자기분리 필터 와이어 사이에 발생하는 끌어당기는 힘은 다른 자기분리와 비교 할 때 초전도 자기분리에서 훨씬 강하다. 초전도 마그네트를 이용하여 높은 자기장을 형성하기 때문에 일반 자기분리의 자성 입자 포획력을 능가한다. 본 연구에서는 습식 조건에서 산업계 원재료로부터 철계 산화물을 제거하기 위해서 초전도 자기문리를 사용하여 실험하였다. 실험에 사용된 시료는 유리원료로 사용되는 2종류로 시료A는 0.1 ~ 0.3 mm의 평균입도를 갖는 모래형상이며 시료B는 평균입도 0.03 ~ 0.1 mm의 고운모래 형태이다. 자기분리를 위해 상온에서 100 mm의 직경을 갖는 600 mm의 높이의 전도냉각형 Nb-Ti 초전도 마그네트를 사용하였으며 시료를 위에서 공급하고 아래로 배출되도록 수직형으로 설치하였다. 시료 500 g과 증류수 2 L를 혼합하여 교반시키고 6 T의 자기장 하에서 실험하였다. 자기분리 필터는 초전도 마그네트에서의 자기장의 분포를 해석하여 디자인하였다. 자기분리 필터의 자기적 특성을 알아보기 위해 진동시료형 자력계를 사용하였다. 산업계 원재료는 X선 형광분석기를 사용하여 성분을 분석하였다. 산업계 원재료를 이용하여 초전도 자기분리를 실시한 결과 철계 산화물은 시료A에서 43.5 %제거되었으며 시료B에서는 77.3%제거되었다.

$Fe_3O_4$ was prepared on the $TiO_2-coated$ natural mica substrate. The natural mica has an average particle size of $22{\mu}m$. The substrate was coated on $TiO_2$ thin films using hydrothermal synthesis at pH 1.5-2.5 at $75^{\circ}C$. The Fe precursor solution was prepared by mixing $FeSO_4$ (for $Fe^{2+}$ ion) and $FeCl_3$ (for $Fe^{3+}$ ions) with different molar ratios such as 1/2, 1/1, 2/1, 3/0, and $Fe_3O_4$ only. X-ray diffraction analysis shows that the crystal structure depends on the $FeCl_3-to-FeSO_4$ molar ratio. $Fe_3O_4$ crystal phase could be obtained at higher $FeSO_4$ contents.

In order to improve the grindability of magnetic abrasive, Fe-WC magnetic abrasives were made by a plasma melting method after ball milling at various times. This study aims to investigate homogeneously distributed hard phases in Fe matrix and strong bonding between the Fe-matrix and the hard phase. According to XRD, SEM and OM observation, Fe-WC magnetic abrasive powders exhibit the best grindability by plasma melting for 30h ball milling. As a result of magnetic abrasive polishing, the surface roughness, R_{max}$ 5.0$\mu\textrm{m}$, before magnetic abrasive polishing, was reduced to R_{max}$ 2.4$\mu\textrm{m}$. The new magnetic abrasive polishing process is thought to be the useful methods for the automation of three dimensional surface polishing.

Polycrystalline $Ti_{1-x}Co_xO_2$ thin films on $SiO_2$ (200 nm)/Si (100) substrates were prepared using liquid-delivery metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. Microstructures and ferromagnetic properties were investigated as a function of doped Co concentration. Ferromagnetic behaviors of polycrystalline films were observed at room temperature, and the magnetic and structural properties strongly depended on the Co distribution, which varied widely with doped Co concentration. The annealed $Ti_{1-x}Co_xO_2$ thin films with $x{\leq}0.05$ showed a homogeneous structure without any clusters, and pure ferromagnetic properties of thin films are only attributed to the $Ti_{1-x}Co_xO_2$ (TCO) phases. On the other hand, in case of thin films above x=0.05, Co clusters formed in a homogeneous $Ti_{1-x}Co_xO_2$ Phase, and the overall ferromagnetic (FM) properties depended on both $FM_{TCO}$ and $FM_{Co}$. Co clusters with about 10nm-150nm size decreased the value of Mr (the remanent magnetization) and increased the saturation magnetic field.

The wet etching characteristics of magnetic materials such as NiFe and CoFe were investigated in terms of etch rate and etch profile by using variouus etching solutions (etchants). Among the various etching solutions, HNO$_3$, HCl, and H$_2$SO$_4$were selected for the etching of magnetic materials and showed distinct results. In the case of NiFe films, faster etch rate were obtained with HNO$_3$solution. When NiFe films ere etched with HCl solution, white etch residues were found on the surface of etched films. From FEAES analysis of these etch residues, they were proved to be by-product from the reaction of NiFe with Cl element. CoFe thin films showed the similar trend to the case of NiFe films. They were etched fast in HNO$_3$ solution while Chl solution represented slow etching. The etch profiles of CoFe films showed smooth etch profile but revealed the partial etching around the patterns in HNO$_3$solution of relatively high concentration. It was observed that the etched surface was clean and smooth, and that white etch residues were also remained on the etched films.

Ferromagnetism in manganese compound semiconductors open prospects for tailoring magnetic and spin-related phenomena in semiconductors with a precision specific to III-V compounds. Also it addresses a question about the origin of the magnetic interactions that lead to a Curie temperature(Tc) as high as 110 K for a manganese concentration of just 5%. Zener's model of ferromagnetism, originally suggested for transition metals in 1950, can explain Tc of $Ga_{1-x}Mn_x$ As and that of its IT-VI counterpart $Zn_{1-x}Mn_x$ Te and is used to predict materials with Tc exceeding room temperature, an important step toward semiconductor electronics that use both charge and spin. In this article, we present not only the experimental result but calculated Curie temperature by RKKY interaction. The problem in making III-V semiconductor has been the low solubility of magnetic elements, such as manganese, in the compound, since the magnetic effects are roughly proportional to the concentration of the magnetic ions. Low solubility of magnetic elements was overcome by low-temperature nonequilibrium MBE{molecular beam epitaxy) growth, and ferromagnetic (Ga,Mn)As was realized. Magnetotransport measurements revealed that the magnetic transition temperature can be as high as 110 K for a small manganese concentration.
