MTJ devices are fabricated using metal shadow masks and switching characteristics are investigated under 2 dimensional magnetic field. When the hard axis field is less than $\pm$ 16 Oe, switching behavior is similar to that based on the Stoner-Wohlfarth model. As the hard axis field is larger than $\pm$ 16 Oe, deviation from the expectation by Stoner-Wohlfarth model is observed. These phenomena are induced by the generation of multi-domain and inhomogeneous magnetization reversal.

For the conventional DC machine, the armature MMF is negligible compared with field MMF except when the machine is under heavy load or transient conditions. During the motor starting or reversal, the transient armature current and corresponding MMF effect the flux density of each pole in the machine magnetic circuit. However, the circuit flux density is restored to normal values by the field winding MMF after the transient armature current dies in an electromagnetic DC motor. Permanent magnet servomotor have no field windings about the circuit poles to restore circuit flux density through the demagnetized part of each pole after the transient armature MMF dies, and portions of the magnetic circuit stay permanently demagnetized. Thus the problem of stabilizing a magnet pole piece under the influence of the transient armature current need attentions. This work present the recoil operation of the servomotor with PM poles in conjunctions with the influence of the armature reaction effect. The development of an analytical and quantatative study is presented for predicting the regime of the recoil operation under this condition.

Magnetic excitation and reversal by a spin polarized current via spin transfer have been a central research topic in spintronics due to its application potential. Special techniques are required to fabricate nano-scale magnetic layers in which the effect can be observed and studied. This work discusses the possibility of using electron-beam resists, the nano-scale patterning media, as ion milling mask in a subtractive fabrication method. The possibility is demonstrated by two resists, one positive tone, the ZEP 520A, and one negative tone, the ma-N2403. The advantage and the key points for success of this process will be also addressed.

Cost reduction requires lowering number of power devices used in the converter driving SRM. This is quite feasible in SRM drive systems than in other drive systems. This paper deals with analysis and simulation of a novel two phase SRM. A novel two phase SRM has high performance, self-starling capability, high efficiency, and low manufacturing cost. Additionally, the stator back iron does not experience any flux reversal as the flux is in the same direction whether phase A or B is excited leading to a greater reduction in core losses. The magnetic analysis and design considerations of the novel two phase SRM have been obtained by the finite element analysis (FEM).

It has been reported that Co-based amorphous ferromagnetic alloys annealed in a small magnetic field develop a reproducible, asymmetric hysteresis loop. If the direction of the field during annealing is regarded as +, the magnetization reversal from - to + is smooth and reversible, with its slope determined by the demagnetizing field of the sample. This phenomenon is called the asymmetric magnetization reversal (AMR). The shape of the hyster-esis loop depends sensitively on the condition during the anneal and the alloy composition. Here, we report on the effect of the annealing temperature and time on AMR in a zero magnetostrictive ferromagnetic amorphous alloy. The AMR effect develops in a very short time at a reasonably high temperature, but is stabilized by annealing for a prolonged time.

Fluxmeter is a measuring instrument the magnetic flux intensity by means of an integration of the voltage induced to a search coil to unit time. It also is required to a precise integrator since the voltage induced to a search coil has a differential value of the flux ${\Phi}$ to unit time. In this study, a bias current which is a main problem of the integrator in a drift troublesome depending on the temperature of a FET is investigated. We have confirmed that the temperature dependence of both the bias current of a integrator using the FET and the reversal saturated current of the minor carrier in a P-N junction of a semiconductor were the same. The property of a commercial integrator goes rapidly down with increasing temperature. The bias current of a FET is increased twice as much with 10$^{\circ}C$ increment. As a result, the low drift integrator could be developed by setting the lower temperature up with a pottier device.

The change in the magnetic properties of a spin-valve multilayer with the structure IrMn (9 m)/CoFe (4 nm)/Cu (2.6 nm)/CoFe (2 nm)/NiEe (6 nm) is investigated as a function of the size and the aspect ratio. At a fixed aspect ratio (the length/width ratio) of 2, the magnetostatic interactions begin to affect the magnetic properties substantially at a spin-valve length of 5 $\mum$, and, at a length of 1 $\mum$, they become even more dominant. In the case of a fixed multilayer size (2.4 $\mum$) which is indicated by the sum of the length and the width, magnetization change occurs by continuous spin-reversal and M-H loops are characterized by no or very small hysteresis at aspect ratios smaller than unity, At aspect ratios greater than unity, magnetization change occurs by spin-flip resulting in squared hysteresis loops. A very large changes in the coercivity and the bias field is observed, and these results are explained by two separate contributions to the total magnetostatic interactions: the coercivity by the self-demagnetizing field and the bias field by the interlayer magnetostatic interaction field.

The effect of Dy addition on the microstructure and magnetic properties of the sintered NdFeB magnets was investigated. The results of the microstructure analysis showed that Dy-free and Dy-doped samples are composed of $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ (P42/mnm) and a trace of Nd-rich phase. Dy addition reduces significantly the pole density factor of (004), (006) and (008) crystal faces as estimated by the Horta formula. Accordingly, the coercivity of the Dy-doped sample increases from 2038 $kA{\cdot}m^{-1}$ up to 2288 $kA{\cdot}m^{-1}$. The $H_{cj}(T)/M_s(T)$ versus $H^{min}_N/M_s(T)$ (Kronm$\ddot{u}$ller-plot) behavior shows that the nucleation is the dominating mechanism for the magnetization reversal in these two kinds of magnets, and two microstructural parameters of ${\alpha}_k$ and $N_{eff}$ are obtained. The Kronm$\ddot{u}$ller-Plot gives evidence for an increase of the ${\alpha}_k$ responsible for an increase of the coercivity as the result of the increase of the magnetic field as the magnetic domain reversed.

We have studied local magnetization reversal and magnetic properties induced by Laser annealing method in the strip-patterned Ta/NiFe/FeMn/Ta and Ta/NiFe/FeMn/NiFe/Ta multilayers fabricated by ion-beam deposition. The films were exposed to the emission of the DPSS (Diode Pumped Solid State, Nd:YAG) laser under 600 G. The laser beam intensity increased up to 440 mW. When the laser illuminated the patterned film with the power of above 200 m W, the intensity of MR peak located in +87 Oe shrunk. A new MR peak was generated at -63 Oe. When the laser power is 400 mW, the location of positive MR peak(H$\sub$ex/) was changed slightly from +87 Oe to +76 Oe, and the MR ratio was decreased from 0.9% to 0.1 %. On the other hand, the new (negative) MR peak shifted from -63 Oe to -80 Oe, with the MR ratio increased up to 0.3%. As the illuminated area expanded, the intensity of opposite MR peak increased and it of negative MR peak decreased. This proved that the local reversal of exchange biasing should be realized by laser annealing.

We have theoretically investigated torque curve shapes of simple uniaxial magnetic materials by considering conditions for round peaks to exist. These conditions are functions of an applied field, anisotropy field, ans lowest critical field $h_0$ for a domain wall to move or nucleate. The peak having a height of 2h appears when h is lower than h$_1$, the peak having a height of 1 appears when h is higher than h$_2$, ans two peaks having heights of 1 and -1 appear when h is higher than h$_3$. It was found that torque curves of simple uniaxial magnetic materials could be classified into 8 distinct types depending on the existence of hysteresis, the number of the round peaks, and the reversal mechanisms. Simple uniaxial magnetic materials also found to be classifed into the 5 groups depending on $h_0$.
