Synthesis of composite powders for the Fe₂O₃-Zn system by mechanical alloying (MA) has been investigated at room temperature. Optimal milling and heat treatment conditions to obtain soft magnetic composite with fine microstructure were investigated by X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) measurement. It is found that α-Fe/ZnO composite powders in which ZnO is dispersed in α-Fe matrix can be obtained by MA of Fe₂O₃ with Zn for 4 hours. The change in magnetization and coercivity also reflects the details of the solid-state reduction process of hematite by pure metal of Zn during MA. Densification of the MA powders was performed in a spark plasma sintering (SPS) machine at 900 ~ 1,000 ℃ under 60 MPa. Shrinkage change after SPS of sample MA'ed for 5 hrs was significant above 300 ℃ and gradually increased with increasing temperature up to 800 ℃. X-ray diffraction results show that the average grain size of α-Fe in the α-Fe/ZnO composite sintered at 900 ℃ is in the range of 110 nm.

In our previous work, microstructure and magnetic properties of two-phase exchange-coupled $Sm_2Fe_{15}Ga_2C_{x}$/$\alpha$-Fe nanocomposites have been investigated by means of x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and magnetization measurement. It was found the exchange coupling between the magnetically hard phase $Sm_2Fe_{15}Ga_2C_{x}$ and the magnetically soft one ${\alpha}$-Fe results in an enhancement of the remanence. The sizes of crystallites of both phases are, however much larger than the Block domain-wall width of the magnetically hard phase. This microstructure gives rise to a concave demagnetization curve and consequently reduces the maximum energy Product. In order to improve their magnetic properties, a few Percent of Zr, which may be effective to refine the microstructure through rapid quenching, was introduced into the nanocomposites. The addition of Zr was found to improve the magnetic properties significantly, Under optimum heat-treatment conditions, the remanence, coercivity and maximum energy Product increase from 0.65 T, 0.48 T and 50 kJ/$m^{3}$ for the Zr-free sample to 0.72 T, 0.77 T and 71.6 kJ/$m^{3}$ for the 1 at.% Zr-containing one, respectively, The improvements of magnetic properties are due to the refinement of microstructure by the addition of Zr.

Magnetic properties of bio-magnetic molecule ferritin have been investigated. Two ferritin samples were synthesized under different magnetic fields, 0 and 9.4 T, respectively. This work is focused on the influence of magnetic field on biomineralization process. While magnetization vs. temperature (M-T) data of both samples measured at 1000 Oe are almost identical except for low temperature region (T < 6 K), magnetization vs. field (M-H) data show noticeable difference. From an analysis of M-H data by using a modified Langevin function, we could extract the saturation magnetization $m_0$(T), the effective magnetic moment ${\mu}_{eff}$(T) and the linear susceptibility x(T). The difference between the samples is most prominent in the x(T), whereby the x(T) of the sample prepared at 9.4 T is 1.7 times bigger than that of the other. In addition, from hysteresis and relaxation measurements, we found the sample prepared at 9.4 T showed strikingly smaller coercivity and slower relaxation.

In this work, lithium ferrite ($Li_{0.5}Fe_{2.5}O_4$) nanoparticles were prepared via mechanochemical processing and subsequent heat treatment at a relatively low ($600^{\circ}C$) calcining temperature. The raw materials used were high purity $Fe_2O_3$ and $Li_2CO_3$ that were milled for between 2 and 20 h. The milled powders were then calcined at temperatures of 500 and $600^{\circ}C$ for 5 h in air. XRD results show that optimum conditions to obtain single phase lithium ferrite nanoparticles with a mean crystallite size of about 23 nm, using Scherrer's formula, are 10 h milling and calcination at $600^{\circ}C$. Saturation magnetization and coercivity of the single phase Li ferrite nanoparticles are 44.6 emu/g and 100 Oe respectively, which are both smaller than those of the bulk Li ferrite. The Curie temperature of the single sample was determined by a Faraday balance, which is $578^{\circ}C$ and smaller than that of bulk Li ferrite.

Multi-pole anisotropic Sr-fertile sintered magnets has been studied by powder injection molding under applied magnetic field. The orientation of anisotropic Sr-ferrite powders higher than 80% during injection molding is achieved at the following conditions; apparent viscosity lower then 2500 poise in 1000 sec$\^$-1/ shear rate and applied magnetic field higher then 4 kOe. For the high fluidity and strength of injection molded compact, and the effective binder removal without defects during solvent extraction and thermal debinding, the optimum multi-binder composition is paraffin wax(PW)/carnauba wax(CW)/HDPE = 50/25/25 wt%. The rate of binder removal is proportional to the mean particle size of Sr-ferrite powders whereas it is inversely proportional to the content of Sr-ferrite powders and the sample thickness. The high magnetic properties of Sr-ferrite sintered magnets are; 3.8 kG of remanent flux density, 3.4 kOe of intrinsic coercivity, and 1.2 kG of surface flux density (1-mm-thick) in the direction of applied magnetic field.

Superparamagnetic Zinc ferrite submicropheres are firstly synthesized via a one-pot solvothermal approach at $200-215^{\circ}C$ for 4-8 hours. $ZnCl_2$, $FeCl_3$ and NaAc are used as precursors with ethylene glycol solvent. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) data indicate that $ZnFe_2O_4$ nanoparticles with the grain size around $15{\pm}3nm$ can be successfully synthesized via the one-pot method. The scanning/transmission electronic microscope (SEM/TEM) images further show the samples are submicrospheres self-assembled by nanoparticles with size about 375-500 nm changed with reaction conditions. Room-temperature vibration magnetic strength measurements (VMS) demonstrates the as-obtained $ZnFe_2O_4$ submicrospheres show prefect superparamagnetism, whose coercivity force and remanence are practically nil. The reaction temperature and time influence on the crystallinity, diameter, saturated magnetic intensity and morphology of the particles.

For the fabrication of a multi-pole anisotropic Sr-ferrite magnet by powder injection molding, it is important to control effectively the alignment of magnetic powders during the injection molding process. The effect of the fluidity of powder/binder mixture on the powder alignment was studied with changing the particle sizes and the volume fraction of Sr-ferrite magnetic powders. The critical volume fraction of Sr-ferrite powders increases from 58 vol.% to 64 vol.% as the mean powder size increases from $0.8\;\mu\textrm{m}$ to $1.2\;\mu\textrm{m}$. A Sr-ferrite powder alignment greater than 80 % is achieved at the conditions of an apparent viscosity lower than 1000 poise at $1600\;sec^{-1}$ shear rate, an applied magnetic field higher than 4 kOe, and a powder volume fraction 8 vol.% lower than the critical fraction. The powder alignment obtained during the injection molding process is not much affected by the subsequent processes of debinding and sintering, showing the magnetic properties of 3.8 kG of remanent flux density and 3.37 kOe of intrinsic coercivity.

Nd-Fe-B permanent magnets have been utilized on various industrial fields such as electric vehicles, generator, robots with actuator, etc, due to their outstanding magnetic properties even 10 times better than conventional magnets. Recently, there are many researches that report magnetic properties improved by controlling microstructure through adjusting alloying elements or conducting various processing. Especially, post-sintering annealing (PSA) can significantly improve the coercivity by modifying the distribution and morphology of Nd-rich phase which formed at grain boundaries. In this study, Nd-Fe-B sintered magnets were subjected to primary heat treatment followed by secondary heat treatment at 460℃, 500℃, and 540℃ to investigate the changes in microstructure and magnetic properties with the secondary heat treatment temperature. EBSD analysis was conducted to compare anisotropic characteristics. Through the SEM and TEM observation for analyzing the morphology and distribution of Nd-rich phase, we investigated the relationship between microstructure and magnetic properties of sintered Nd-Fe-B magnets.

RF-마그네트론 스퍼터법으로 제조된 200~1200$\AA$의 Co82Zr6Mo12박막을 회전자장 중에서 열처리할 때 박막의 미세구조 및 표면형상의 변화에 따른 전자기적 특성을 조사하였다. 박막의 두께가 증가할수록 보자력은 감소하는 경향을 보였으나, 포화자화 값의 변화는 나타나지 않았다. 열처리 온도가 30$0^{\circ}C$까지 증가함에 따라 보자력은 박막내부 잔류응력의 감소 및 표면조도의 감소로 인해 감소하였고, 40$0^{\circ}C$에서는 부분적인 결정립성장에 의해 증가하였다. 포화자화 값은 열처리 온도 20$0^{\circ}C$까지 변화를 보이지 않고, 300 및 40$0^{\circ}C$에서는 7.4kG에서 8.0kG로 증가하였는바, 이는 박막내의 미세 Co입자의 석출 및 성장에 기인하였다. 전기비저항은 열처리 온도가 증가함에 따라 감소하였으며, 자기저항값은 거의 0cm에 가까운 음의 값을 보였다. 주파수 변화에 따른 박막의 유효투자율은 30$0^{\circ}C$ 열처리시 1200으로 최대값을 나타냈다. 이상에서 박막을 실제적인 자기저항 헤드의 바이어스층으로 응용을 고려시, 최적 열처리조건은 400Oe의 회전자장 중 30$0^{\circ}C$에서 1시간 열처리할 때로 나타났다.
