광 리소그래피 공정을 이용하여 반강자성체 IrMn 층을 기반으로 하는 GMR-SV(giant magnetoresistance-spin valve) 소자 위에 ${\mu}m$ 선폭 크기의 코일을 적층하여 미크론 크기 코일을 제작하였다. GMR-SV 박막일 때와 소자 제작 후의 자기저항비와 자장감응도는 각각 4.4 %, 2.0 %/Oe와 1.6 %, 0.1 %/Oe로 나타났다. 여러 개의 $1{\mu}m$ 크기인 자성비드가 붙은 적혈구 바로 아래 위치에 놓일 소자와 10번 감은 미크론 크기 코일에 흐르는 AC 및 DC 전류 크기에 따른 자기장 분포를 유한요소법 전산모사로 분석하였다. 코일 중심인 $z=0{\mu}m$에서 주파수 20 kHz인 AC 전류가 0.1 mA에서 10.0 mA로 증가하면 이 값에 비례하여 자기장의 크기는 $30{\mu}T$에서 $3060{\mu}T$로 증가하였다. 그리고 코일 중심에서부터 $z=10{\mu}m$에서 자기장 크기는 $z=0{\mu}m$인 중심에서 보다 1/6배로 줄어들었다. 미크론 크기 코일에 흐르는 전류에 의해 생성되는 자기장은 적혈구 포획용으로 충분한 크기를 갖고 있어서 검출용 바이오센서로 활용 가능함을 확인 할 수 있었다.

This paper presents the design and experiment results of a multi-layered microsystem for magnetic bead applications. The magneto-microfluidic device is designed for capable of separating magnetic beads. In the presence of the magnetic field, magnetic beads are attracted and moved to high gradient magnetic fields. A multi-layered microfluidic channel consists of top and bottom layers in order to separate magnetic beads in the vertical direction. Our channel is easily integrated magnetic cell sorter, especially on-chip microelectromagnet or permanent magnet device. Fast separation of magnetic beads in top and bottom channels can be used in high throughput screening to monitor the efficiency of blood and drug compounds.

Low-noise amplifiers in the radio-frequency (RF) band based on the direct current (DC) superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) can be used for quantum-limited measurements in precision physics experiments. For the prediction of peak-gain frequency of these amplifiers, we need a reliable design formula for the resonance frequency of the microstrip circuit. We improved the formula for the resonance frequency, determined by parameters of the DC SQUID and the input coil, and compared the design values with experimental values. The proposed formula showed much accurate results than the conventional formula. Minor deviation of the experimental results from the theory can be corrected by using the measured geometrical parameters of the input coil line.

This study presents a vertical-type CMOS Hall device with improved sensitivity to detect a 3D magnetic field in various types of sensors or communication devices. To improve sensitivity, trenches are implanted next to the current input terminal, so that the Hall current becomes maximum. The effect of the dimension and location of trenches on sensitivity is simulated in the COMSOL simulator. A vertical-type Hall device with a width of $16{\mu}m$ and a height of $2{\mu}m$ is optimized for maximum sensitivity. The simulation result shows that it has a 23% better result than a conventional vertical-type CMOS Hall device without a trench.

원자력이용시설에서 발생한 작은 크기의 금속 조각들을 효과적으로 제염하는 스마트 장치를 개발하였다. 이 장치는 자성연마재를 포함한 영역의 자속밀도를 연속적으로 변화시키는 방법과 초음파를 이용하는 다중 제염장치이다. 한편, 제염 효율을 높이기 위해 제염 장치가 제염 대상 전체에 작용하도록 장치들의 구성을 수정하였다. 개발된 장치들의 최적 작동조건을 도출하여 샘플로 선정한 소형의 금속방사성페기물에 대하여 자기장과 초음파제염을 각각 15분간 실시하였다. 그 결과 제염계수의 범위는18~56으로 크게 향상되었으며 제염 후 모든 샘플은 백그라운드(BKG)값 이하로 확인되었다.

Due to their high degree of freedom to transfer and acquire light, fiber optics can be used in the presence of strong magnetic fields. Hence, optical sensing and imaging based on fiber optics can be integrated with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) diagnostic systems to acquire valuable information on biological tissues and organs based on a magnetic field. In this article, we explored the combination of MRI and optical sensing/imaging techniques by classifying them into the following topics: 1) functional near-infrared spectroscopy with functional MRI for brain studies and brain disease diagnoses, 2) integration of fiber-optic molecular imaging and optogenetic stimulation with MRI, and 3) optical therapeutic applications with an MRI guidance system. Through these investigations, we believe that a combination of MRI and optical sensing/imaging techniques can be employed as both research methods for multidisciplinary studies and clinical diagnostic/therapeutic devices.

Vibration assisted cutting (VAC) is one of the promising methods for precision machining, which has been normally equipped with piezoelectric materials. In this paper, a feasibility of applying magnetostrictive materials to VAC as a cutting device instead of piezoelectric materials was studied. For this, the vibrational characteristics of a magnetostrictive material was investigated with respect to a coil design, a preload, and the effects of a biasing and an exciting magnetic fields. The output strain of a magnetostrictive material is restricted due to an increasing inductive impedance as the exciting frequency increases and the heat of coil, etc. Through the experimental results, it was found that the biasing and the exciting magnetic field affected the output performance significantly but not the preload. In conclusion, the magnetostrictive material could be used only in the low frequency range but not a good candidate for high frequency actuating application.

This paper deals with the behaviors of magnetic flux density near down-conductors by lightning currents. The background on the principle of magnetic flux density measurements using the RL self-integrating magnetic field sensor was described. The magnetic flux density measuring device consisting of RL self-integrating magnetic field sensor and differential amplifier was designed and fabricated. The frequency bandwidth of the magnetic flux density measuring system ranges from 200 Hz to 300 KHz and the response sensitivity was 0.126 $\mu$T/㎷ The distributions of the magnetic flux density near down-conductors due to impulse currents with various rise times were analyzed as a parameter of the bonding conditions and materials of conductor and wiring conduits. The magnetic flux density due to impulse currents was inversely proportional to the distance between the down-conductor and measuring point. The amplitude of the magnetic flux density for PVC Pipe with down-conductor was 72 $\mu$T/㎷ at the distance of 1m and was higher than for steel conduits and coaxial cable. Finally the magnetic flux density is increased with increasing the di/dt it and oscillation frequency of lightning currents in this experimental ranges.

Magnetic separation technology for small paramagnetic particles has been desired for the volume reduction of contaminated soil from the Fukushima nuclear power plant accident and for the separation of scale and crud from nuclear power plants. However, the magnetic separation for paramagnetic particles requires a superconducting high gradient magnetic separation system applied, hence expanding the bore diameter of the magnets is necessary for mass processing and the initial and running costs would be enormous. The use of high magnetic fields makes safe onsite operation difficult, and there is an industrial need to increase the magnetic separation efficiency for paramagnetic particles in as low a magnetic field as possible. Therefore, we have been developing a magnetic separation system combined with a selection tube, which can separate small paramagnetic particles in a low magnetic field. In the previous technique we developed, a certain range of particle size was classified, and the classified particles were captured by magnetic separation. In this new approach, the fluid control method has been improved in order to the selectively classify particles of various diameters by using a multi-stage selection tube. The soil classification using a multi-stage selection tube was studied by calculation and experiment, and good results were obtained. In this paper, we report the effectiveness of the multi-stage selection tube was examined.

본 고는 반도체 재료가 갖는 자기효과를 이용하여 자기센서의 종류 및 특성등에 대하여 서술하였다. 반도체 LSI의 응용분야가 확대됨에 따라서 반도체 센서를 이용한 극소형화, 고성능화, 저가격화, 다기능화등이 가능하게 되었다. 이러한 상황에서 반도체를 이용한 홀 소자나 자기저항 소자와 같은 자기센서 등을 주변회로와 일체화시킨 초소형 시스템에 대한 연구가 활발하다. 특히 화합물 반도체는 자기센서에 적합한 물리적인 특성을 갖고 있기 때문에, 자기센서로 효율을 나타내고 있다. 반도체의 미세가공기술의 발전과 LSI제조기술의 발전을 이용하여 센서의 집적화, 저가격화를 가능하게 하였으며, 다른 종류의 반도체 센서들을 자기센서와 함께 하나의 칩위에 장착할 수 있는 응용집적센서(Application-specific Integrated Sensor)가 더욱 중요한 역할을 할 것이다.
