New classes of LC resonators for micro magnetic sensor device were proposed and fabricated. The first type LC resonator (Type I) consists of a small piece of microwire and two cylindrical electrodes at the end of the microwire without direct contact to its ferromagnetic core. In type I resonator the ferromagnetic core of the microwire and cylindrical electrodes act as an inductor and two capacitors respectively to form a LC circuit. The second type LC resonator (Type II) consists of a solenoidal micro-inductor with a bundle of soft magnetic microwires as a core. The solenoidal micro-inductors fabricated by MEMS technique were $500\sim1,000\;\mu{m}$ in length with $10\sim20$ turns. A capacitor is connected in parallel to the micro-inductor to form a LC circuit. A tiny glass coated $CO_{83.2}B_{3.3}Si_{5.9}Mn_{7.6}$ microwire was fabricated by a glass-coated melt spinning technique. A supergiant magneto-impedance effect was found in a type I resonator as much as 400,000% by precise tuning frequency at around 518.51 MHz. In type II resonator the changes of inductance as a function of external magnetic field in micro-inductors with properly annealed microwire cores were varied as much as 370%. The phase angle between current and voltage was also strongly dependent on the magnetic field. The drastic increments of magnetoimpedance at near the resonance frequency were observed in both types of LC resonators. Accordingly, the sudden change of the phase angle, as large as $180^{\circ}C$, evidenced the occurrence of the resonance at a given external magnetic field.

A new discovery of the super-giant magneto-impedance (SGMI) effect was found out in a LC-resonator consisted of a glass-coated amorphous $CO_{83.2}B_{3.3}Si_{5.9}Mn_{7.6}$ microwire. The measurement was carried out at high frequency range from 100 MHz up to 1 GHz of an ac-current flowing along the wire and at varying axial dcmagnetic field in its range of $\pm$120 Oe. The wires, about 16${\mu}m$ in diameter, were fabricated by a glass-coated melt spinning technique. The shape of the impedance curves plotted vs. a dc-field is changing dramatically with the frequency. The phase angle was also strongly dependent on this field. The external dc-magnetic field changes the circumferential permeability as well as the penetration depth, both in turn change the impedance of the sample. The drastic increments of SGMI at high frequency can be understood in terms of the LC-resonance phenomena. The sudden change of the phase angle, as large as $180^{\circ}$ evidenced the occurrence of the resonance at a given intensity of the external dc-field. The maximum ratio of SGMI reached in the experiment by precise tuning frequency equals 450,000％ at the frequency of around 551.9075 MHz.

MEMS 공정기법을 적용하여 새로운 형태의 LC 공진기형 자기센서를 제작하였다. 이 마이크로 LC 공진기는 솔레노이드형 마이크로인덕터에 연자성 마이크로와이어를 코어로 삽입하고 여기에 콘덴서를 병렬로 연결하여 구성하였다. 코어 자성 물질은 melt spinning 법으로 제조한 유리가 코팅된 $Co_{83.2}B_{3.3}Si_{5.9}Mn_{7.6}$ 마이크로와이어이다. 코어물질의 연자성을 개선하기 위하여 $150^{\circ}C$, $200^{\circ}C,\;250^{\circ}C,\;300^{\circ}C$ 등 여러 온도에서 1시간씩 진공 열처리하였다. MEMS 공정으로 제작된 솔레노이형 마이크로인덕터는 길이가 $500{\sim}1,000{\mu}m$ 이며 감은수는 $10{\sim}20$회이다. 외부자기장에 따른 본 마이크로인덕터의 최대 인덕턴스 변화율은 370%이었다. 초연자성 마이크로와이어의 투자율이 외부자기장에 따라 급격히 변하기 때문에 인덕턴스변화율이나 LC 공진기의 자기임피던스 변화율(MIR)이 급속하게 변한다. 최대감도를 얻기 위해서 MIR 곡선은 정교하게 조절할 수 있다. 마이크로인덕터와 멀티바이브 레어터 회로로 구성된 원형 자기센서소자를 제작하여 시험동작을 하는데 성공하였다.
