We have designed, fabricated and tested an integrated microfluidic chip with a Planar Hall Effect (PHE) sensor. The sensor was constructed by sequentially sputtering Ta/NiFe/Cu/NiFe/IrMn/Ta onto glass. The microfluidic channel was fabricated with poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) using soft lithography. Magnetic nanoparticles suspended in hexadecane were used as ferrofluid, of which the saturation magnetisation was 3.4 emu/cc. Droplets of ferrofluid were generated in a T-junction of a microfluidic channel after hydrophilic modification of the PDMS. The size and interval of the droplets were regulated by pressure on the ferrofluid channel inlet. The PHE sensor detected the flowing droplets of ferrofluid, as expected from simulation results. The shape of the signal was dependent on both the distance of the magnetic droplet from the sensor and the droplet length. The sensor was able to detect a magnetic moment of $2{\times}10^{-10}$ emu at a distance of 10 ${\mu}m$. This study provides an enhanced understanding of the magnetic parameters of ferrofluid in a microfluidic channel using a PHE sensor and will be used for a sample inlet module inside of integrated magnetic lab-on-a-chip systems for the analysis of biomolecules.

This paper presents the development of a collocated capacitance sensor and its application to the decentralized PID controller design for 4-axis magnetic bearing system. The main feature of the sensor is that it is made of a compact printed circuit board (PCB) so that it can be built in to the actuator coil of the magnetic bearing unit. The signal processing unit has been also developed. Then, decentralized PED controller is designed using simplified rotor system model. Finally, the experimental results on the performance of the collocated sensor based decentralized PID controller for a magnetic bearing rotor system is presented.

This paper describes design and construction results of the measurement system developed on the purpose of measuring properties of AC magnetic field sensors used in the weapon system. The system for measuring the properties of AC magnetic field sensors consist of 3-axis helmholtz coil, signal generator, signal amplifier, sensor data acquisition unit and AC magnetic field sensor property measurement & analysis equipment including the operating software. By using this system, we can measure various properties of AC magnetic field sensor such as sensitivity, linearity and dynamic response in the frequency from 1 Hz to 10 kHz. Finally we also verified its performance by measuring the property of a MAG 639, standard magnetic field sensor of bartington instruments, with the developed measurement system.

A fluxgate magnetic sensor consists of a solenoid excitation coil, pick-up coil, and magnetic core. We presents the effect of magnetic core shape in a micromachined fluxgate sensor. To observe the performance of fluxgate sensor with magnetic core side width and gap, side width of 125 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, 250 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, and 500 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ were designed in a rectangular-ring shaped core and the gaps of 0 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, 50 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, and 100 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ were also fabricated in a racetrack shaped core. The solenoid coils and magnetic core were separated by benzocyclobutane(BCB) which had high insulation and good planarization characters. Copper coil patterns of 10 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ width and 6${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ thickness were electroplated on Ti(300 $\AA$) / Cu(1500 $\AA$) seed layers. 3 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ thick N $i_{0.8}$F $e_{0.2.}$(permalloy) film for the magnetic core was also electroplated under 2000 gauss to induce the magnetic anisotropy. The magnetic core had the high DC effective permeability of ∼1,300 and coercive field of ∼0.1 Oe. Because the magnetic cores of 500 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ side width and 0 gap had a low magnetic flux leakage, high sensitivity of ∼350 V/T were measured at excitation condition of 3 $V_{P-P}$ and 2 MHz square wave. The power consumption of ∼14 ㎽ was measured. The fabricated fluxgate sensor had the very small actual size of 3.0${\times}$1.7 $\textrm{mm}^2$. When two fluxgates were perpendicularly aligned in terrestrial field, their two-axis output signals were very useful to commercialize an electronic azimuth compass for the portable navigation system.m.m.m.

산업 전반에 걸쳐 자기장 센서에 대한 연구나 제품개발이 많이 진행되어져 왔다. 하지만 이런 제품의 단가를 낮추기 위해서는 초기 개발단계에서부터 자기장 필드와 자기장 센서의 특징과 최종제품의 특징들을 정확하게 이해하는 것이 중요하다. 특히, 자기장 필드는 비선형 데이터를 처리하는 계산이 복잡하여 실제로 사용하고 응용하기에는 매우 어렵기 때문에, 이렇게 측정된 자기장 센서값들을 정확하게 계산하기 위해서는 고가의 장비나 복잡한 알고리즘이 필요한 추세였다. 하지만, 본 논문에서는 기존 조이스틱의 특징을 이해한 상태에서 자기장 센서의 고유한 특성과 특징을 소개하면서, 자기장 센서를 사용하는 웨어러블 조이스틱을 개발하기에 적합하고 간단하면서도 기능을 충족하는 디자인 및 개발 방법들을 제시하였다. 특히, 기존 조이스틱의 기계적인 특징과 자기장 센서의 특성을 서로 잘 고려한 후에, 기존 조이스틱의 본질적인 문제인 기계적인 마모와 문제점들을 해결하고자 기계적 구성이나 선들이 필요없는 자기장 센서를 이용하여, 저가의 웨어러블 조이스틱 장치의 디자인 및 개발 할 수 있는 설계요소 및 방법들을 소개하였다. 본 논문의 개발결과로 실제 사용자 테스트를 수행하여, 본 논문의 장비를 처음 접하는 사용자들도 쉽게 이용하여 기존 조이스틱과 같이 정확하게 제어할 수 있음을 보였다.

This paper proposes a rotary magnetic position sensor which has a sinusoidally magnetized permanent magnet with a small number of poles. To make the sinusoidal magnetic flux density distribution from the permanent magnet, a magnetizing future is optimized by the DOE(Design of Experiments) method. The magnetization process is analyzed using the Preisach model and 2 dimensional finite element method. The magnetic flux density distribution from the magnetized permanent magnet is very similar to ideal sine wave. The simulation result of the magnetic flux density distribution is compared with the experimental one. Also the availability of the proposed rotary type magnetic position sensor is confirmed by position calculation technique.

This paper deals with the device for measuring the time-varying magnetic fields and induced voltages caused by lightning discharges. The two magnetic field measuring systems were designed and made. One consists of the loop-type magnetic field sensor with the active integrator operated by a differential amplifier. The other consists of the loop-type magnetic field sensor and Labview software. The loop-type magnetic field sensor detects the time derivative of the magnetic field being measured, and the signal detected is integrated by the Labview software. As a consequence, from the calibration experiments, the frequency bandwidth of the full measuring system ranges from 400 [Hz] to 1 (MHz) and the response sensitivity are 0.98 (mV/nT) and 22 (mV/nT) for the magnetic field sensor of 2 turns and 6 turns, respectively. Also, the results obtained by the two measuring devices well agreed with each other.

The relationship between magnetic properties of BiPbSrCaCuO superconductor and externally applied magnetic field was studied to develop a magnetic field polarity sensor. The behavior was related to the magnetic flux trapped in the superconductor, which penetrates through the material by the external magnetic field. Some portion of the superconductor was changed to a normal state by the trapped magnetic flux. Electrical characteristics of the superconductor with trapped magnetic flux were extremely sensitive to the external magnetic field and showed different responses depending on the direction of the magnetic field.

자기테이프를 사용하는 대부분의 경량무인운반차들(AGCs)은 디지털 자기유도센서를 사용한다. 디지털 자기유도센서는 On/Off 타입으로 자기테이프의 위치측정 정밀도가 10~50 mm의 오차를 가진다. 또한 경량무인운반차에 설치된 모터의 자기장이나 주변 환경의 외부 자기장, 지자기 등으로 인하여 정확한 위치를 추정하기 힘들다. 이러한 오차로 인하여 경량무인운반차의 주행 시에 잦은 흔들림이 발생하게 되고, 정도가 심할 경우 이탈현상이 발생하게 된다. 따라서 본 논문은 양극성 아날로그 자기유도센서에 퍼지 추론 시스템의 적용을 제안한다. 퍼지는 다른 알고리즘에 비하여 내고장성과 불확실성에 강인하고, 실시간 작동에 유리하며, 비선형시스템에 사용하기 적합하다. 선행과제에서 제작한 양극성 아날로그 자기유도센서로 threshold를 두어 디지털 자기유도센서를 형성하고, 이를 이용하여 자석위치 값을 계산한다. On으로 인식된 아날로그 Hall sensor의 출력을 이용하여 퍼지 추론 시스템을 설계하고, 그 출력으로 디지털출력 값을 개선한다. 실험 결과, 제안된 방법이 기존의 자기유도센서보다 성능이 향상된 것을 확인하였다.

A wireless magnetic torque sensor is utilized to measure the torque generated in the rotating shaft in magnetic field without connecting to the shaft by any wire. In this study, a new wireless magnetic torque sensor was introduced. The structure of the sensor was explained detailed as well as its operation principle. Resulting from the torque measurement experiment results, the sensor was proven to measure the generated torque effectively. Compared with traditional contact torque sensor, the wireless one has low cost and good environment adaptation ability. Moreover, the intractable wrapping wires around the shaft are removed in this design. Hence the wireless torque sensor may be expected as a possible sensing device for many applications, such as the electric assisting rotation system in automobiles, the torque sensing system in motors, the arm rotation system in robotics and so on.
