스피넬 결정구조를 지니는 $CoMn_2O_4$ 박막을 증착하였으며 이들 박막의 물리적 특성을 후열처리 이전과 이후로 비교 조사하였다. 증착온도인 $720^{\circ}C$보다 낮은 $700^{\circ}C$에서의 후열처리 과정 이후, 열처리 이전의 불분명했던 tetragonal 결정구조가 분명하여졌으며 이는 곧 표면상태의 변화로도 관측되었다. 자성특성의 경우 약 100 K에서 다결정 형태의 벌크에서는 측정할 수 없었던 상전이가 관측되었다. 상전이온도 이상의 온도에서는 전형적인 강자성 특성을 보이는 반면 상전이온도 이하에서는 페리자성 특성을 보였다. 특히 열처리 이후에는 페리자성 특성은 매우 뚜렷하여졌다. 이와 같은 결과는 후열처리과정이 $CoMn_2O_4$ 박막의 물리적 특성을 결정짓는데 필수적임을 의미한다.

Solid solutions of the nonstoichiometric Dy1-xSrxCoO3-y system with the compositions of x=0.00, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, and 1.00 have been synthesized by the solid state reaction at 1000 ℃ under atmospheric air pressure. The crystallographic structures of the solid solutions are analyzed by the powder X-ray diffraction patterns at room temperature. The analyses assign the compositions of x=0.00 and 0.25 to the orthorhombic system with space group of Pbnm/D2h16, the compositions of x=0.50 and 0.75 to the tetragonal system like a typical SrCoO2.86, and the composition of x=l.00 or SrCoO2.50 to the brownmillerite type system with space group of I**a. The reduced lattice volumes increase with x value due to the larger radius of Sr2+ ion than that of Dy3+ ion. The mole ratio of Co4+ ion to total Co ion with mixed valence state between Co3+ and Co4+ ions at B sites or τ value has been determined by an iodometric titration. All the samples except for the DyCoO3 compound show the mixed valnce state and thus the composition of x=0.50 has the maximum τ value in the system. The oxygen vacancies increasing with x value are randomly distributed over the crystal lattice except for the composition of x=l.00 which have the ordering of the oxygen vacancies. The nonstoichiometric chemical formulas of the Dy1-xSrxCo3+1-τCo4+τO3-(x-τ)/2 system are formulated from the x, τ, and y values. The electrical conductivity in the temperature range of 100 to 900 K increases with τ value linearly because of positive holes of the Co4+ ions in π* band as a conducting carrier. The activation energy of the x=0.50 as Ea=0.17 eV is minimum among other compouds. Broad and high order transition due to the overlap between σ* and π* bands broadened by the thermal activation is observed near 1000 K and shows a low temperature-semiconducting behavior. Magnetic properties following the Currie-Weiss law show the low to high spin transition in the cobaltate perovskite. Especially, the composition of x=0.75 presents weak ferromagnetic behavior due to the Co3+-O2--Co4+ indirect superexchange interaction.

FeM2X4 spinel structures, where M is a transition metal and X is oxygen or sulfur, are candidate materials for spin filters, one of the key devices in spintronics. Both the Fe and M ions can occupy tetrahedral and octahedral sites; therefore, these types of compounds can display various physical and chemical properties [1]. On the other hand, the electronic and magnetic properties of these spinel structures could be modified via the control of cation distribution [2, 3]. Among the spinel oxides, iron manganese oxide is one of promising materials for applications. FeMn2O4 shows inverse spinel structure above 390 K and ferrimagnetic properties below the temperature [4]. In this work, we report on the structural and magnetic properties of epitaxial FeMn2O4 thin film on MgO(100) substrate. The reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) results indicated that films were epitaxially grown on MgO(100) without the impurity phases. The valance states of Fe and Mn in the FeMn2O4 film were carried out using x-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS). The magnetic properties were measured by vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), indicating that the samples are ferromagnetic at room temperature. The structural detail and origin of magnetic ordering in FeMn2O4 will be discussed.

Multiferroic materials are of great interest because of its potential applications in the design of devices combining magnetic, electronic and optical functionalities. Among various multiferroic materials, $BiFeO_3$(BFO) is known to be one of the intensively focused mainly due to the possibility of multiferroism at device working temperature (> $200^{\circ}C$). However, leakage current and weak polarization resulting from oxygen deficiency and crystalline defect should be resolved. Furthermore the magnetic ordering of pure BFO mainly prefers to have antiferromagnetic coupling. Up to now many attempts have been performed to improve the ferromagnetic and the ferroelectric properties of BFO by doping. In this work, we investigated the effects of Ni substitution on the multiferroism of bulk BFO. Four BFO samples (a pure BFO and three Ni-doped BFO's; $BiFe_{0.99}Ni_{0.01}O_3$, $BiFe_{0.98}Ni_{0.02}O_3$ and $BiFe_{0.97}Ni_{0.03}O_3$) were synthesized by the standard solid-state reaction and rapid sintering technique. The XRD results reveal that Ni atoms are substituted into Fe-sites and give rise to phase transition of cubic to rhombohedal. By using vibrating sample magnetometer and standard ferroelectric tester, the multiferroic properties at room temperature were characterized. We found that the magnetic moment of Ni-doped BFO turned out to be maximized for 3% of Ni dopant.

We studied the microstructure and magnetic property of the pulsed DC magnetron sputtered $Zn_{\0.8}Co_{0.2}O$ film as a function of substrate temperatures. The X-ray patterns of the $Zn_{\0.8}Co_{0.2}O$ film showed a strong (002) preferential orientation at $500^{\circ}C$. The films with a crystallite size of 23-35 nm were grown in the form of nano-sized structure and this tendency was remarkable with increasing substrate temperature. The UV-visible result showed that the $Zn_{\0.8}Co_{0.2}O$ film prepared above $300^{\circ}C$ has a high optical transmittance of over $80\%$ in the visible region. The absorption bands were observed due to sp-d interchange action by $Co^{2+}$ complex ion and dd transition in the region from 500 to 700nm. The resistivity of the film was below $10^{-1}\;\Omega-cm\;above\;300^{\circ}C$. The AGM analysis results for the all films showed the magnetic hysteresis curves of ferromagnetic nature. The low electrical resistivity and room temperature ferromagnetism of ZnCoO thin films 'deposited above $300^{\circ}C$ suggested the possibility for the application to Diluted Magnetic Semiconductors (DMSs).

Crystallographic, electric, magnetic and heat transition properties of $\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$ have been studied with a small addition of Eu impurities. Hematite($\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$) is a basic ferromagnetic material having rhombohedral structure, which is similar to perovskites structure. Eu is a rare earth element that has an electric configuration of 4f$^{7}$ 6s$^2$. X-ray diffraction pattern of Fe$_{1-x}$ Eu$_{x}$O$_3$ (x = 0.00, 0.04, 0.06) shows an increament of a value when the amount of Eu impurities increased. The VSM data show an increment of magnetization by increasing the amount of Eu impurity. The one with x=0.06 shows the largest increment of magnetic remanence. The magnetic remanence varied from 0.49$\times$10$^{-3}$ emu/g to 0.62$\times$10$^{-3}$ emu/g when Eu impurity is increased by 2 %. Coercivity is decreased as Eu impurity is increased. Resistances is reduced significantly by Eu impurity. There is a clear difference in temperature-dependent resistance depending on the amount of Eu impurities. Especially, there are cusps between 150 K to 175 K. It indicates the change of electronic quantum states inside the atoms by rare earth impurities in rhombohedral structure. Temperature-dependent heat capacity shows that the most effective amount of Eu impurities is 6 %. %.

The metallic glass ribbons of $[(Fe_xCo_{1-x})_{0.75}B_{0.2}Si_{0.05}]_{96}Mo_4$ (x = 0, 0.3, 0.6, 0.9 at.%) and $[(Fe_xCo_{1-x})_{0.75}B_{0.2}Si_{0.05}]_{96}Nb_4$ (x = 0, 0.3, 0.6, 0.9 at.%) were obtained by melt spinning with 25-30 ${\mu}m$ thickness. The thermal stability, mechanical properties and magnetic properties of Fe-Co-B-Si based systems were investigated. The values of thermal stability were measured using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), including glass transition temperature ($T_g$), crystallization temperature ($T_x$) and supercooled liquid region (${\Delta}T_x=T_x-T_g$). These amorphous ribbons were identified as fully amorphous, using X-ray diffraction (XRD). The mechanical properties of Febased samples were measured by nano-indentation. Magnetic properties of the amorphous ribbons were measured by a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The amorphous ribbons of $[(Fe_xCo_{1-x})_{0.75}B_{0.2}Si_{0.05}]_{96}Mo_4$ (x = 0, 0.3, 0.6, 0.9 at.%) and $[(Fe_xCo_{1-x})_{0.75}B_{0.2}Si_{0.05}]_{96}Nb_4$ (x = 0, 0.3, 0.6, 0.9 at.%) exhibited soft magnetic properties with low coercive force ($H_c$) and high saturation magnetization (Ms).

최초의 상온 초거대 자기저항(colossal magnetoresistance)효과 물질인 망간 산화물$La_{1-x}Ba_{x}MnO_3(0\leq\chi\leq$1) 에 대한 결정학적, 자기적, 전기적 성질들을 온도 및 자기장의 함수$5\;K\leqT\leq360\;K,\;-7\;T\leqH\leq7\;T)$로 정밀 조사하였다. $La_{1-x}Ba_{x}MnO_3$는 x<1/2 일 때는 x에 의존하는 구조를 가진 단일상(single phase)의 강자성, $x\geq1/2$ 일 때는 화학적, 자기적 상분리에 의한 강자성과 비강자성 복합상(multi phase)을 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 강자성 전이 온도(Tc)는 x=1/3이 될 때까지 꾸준히 증가하였고 x＞1/3 일 때 일정한 값 Tc(340 K)을 가졌다. 또 포화 자화값(Ms)은 x=1/8이 될 때까지 증가하였고 $1/8\leqx<1/2$에서는 이론적인 최대값을 가지고$x\geq1/2$ 에서는 자기적 상분리에 의해 감소하였다. 또 $La_{1-x}Ba_{x}MnO_3$는 $1/4\leqx<1/2$에서 금속성을 가졌다. 특히 $x\geq1/2$인 시료는 화학적, 자기적 상분리로 인하여 스미기 형태(percolation type)의 저항 온도 의존성 및 큰 저자기장 자기 저항 효과를 보였다.

Magnetic and magnetotransport properties of (1-x) $La_{0.7}Sr_{0.3}MnO_3-xRE_2O_3$ (RE=La, Nd) (x = 0.025, 0.05, 0.075, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3) composite polycrystalline samples were systematically studied. Samples were prepared using conventional solid-state reaction. LSMO and $RE_2O_3$ react at high temperature and become chemically compatible. The ferromagnetic-paramagnetic transition temperatures ($T_c$) of the LSMO-$Nd_2O_3$ composite samples were decreased 313K~349K with increasing x, while the $T_c$ values of the LSMO-$La_2O_3$ composite samples were almost unaltered in the range of 355K~358K, representing that the ferromagnetism of LSMO might be more seriously degraded by Nd substitution on the ($La_{0.7}Sr_{0.3}$) site. However, LSMO-$RE_2O_3$ composite samples exhibit greatly enhanced low field magnetoresistance (LFMR) and dMR/dH value without an appreciable increase in its resistivity. Remarkably improved LFMR properties are attributed to LSMO grain boundaries acting as effective spin-dependent scattering centers. The relationship among the $RE_2O_3$ addition, microstructure, magnetic and magnetotransport properties will be discussed in this paper.

$SiO_2$ 산화막이 제거되지 않은 Si(100) 기판 위에 실온에서 5 nm Ta과 5 nm MgO 기저층을 증착하고, 그 위에 RF 스퍼터링 기법으로 실온에서 약 35 nm 두께의 $Fe_3O_4$ 박막을 적층하였다. 진공 후열처리에 따라 향상된 $Fe_3O_4$ 박막의 결정성과 그에 따른 자기적 특성의 변화 양상을 관찰하였다. $500^{\circ}C$에서 1시간 동안 후열처리한 시료에 대해, 실온에서 강자성 특성을 보았을 뿐만 아니라, $Fe_3O_4$ 박막의 고유한 특성으로 알려진 Verwey 상전이 현상 또한 관찰되었다. 후열처리에 의해 MgO 박막 위에 적층된 $Fe_3O_4$에 미치는 Ta 기저층의 영향에 대해 Ta이 삽입되지 않은 경우와 비교하여 논의 할 것이다.
