In this research, the processing control of NiCuZn Ferrite has been developed. The relationship between initial permeability and bulk density of NiCuZn Ferrite with processing factors was studied. NiCuZn Ferrite, which calcinated at $700^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours, was ball milled for about 60 hours to make a size of $0.5\mu\textrm{m}$ followed by granulation using spray dryer. The physical properties and the magnetic properties of NiCuZn Ferrite were investigated with the processing factor, such as (i) granule size and forming pressure, and (ii) sintering temperature. The green density of NiCuZn Ferrite was largely depended on the forming pressure rather than its granule size. The green density of NiCuZn Ferrite was increased from $2.484\;g/cm^{3}$ to $3.002\;g/cm^{3}$ with increase in forming pressure. The bulk density of NiCuZn Ferrite was increased from $3.470\;g/cm^{3}$ to $4.754\;g/cm^{3}$ linearly with increase in sintering temperature. The relationship between initial permeability and bulk density of NiCuZn Ferrite was expressed with the empirical equation,$\mu_{i}=a+b_{\rho}+c_{\rho}^2$ at forming pressure and sintering temperature.

NiCuZn ferrites were prepared by a solid-state reaction and sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ for 5 hours. Its properties were investigated by controlling the ferrite composition and processing. NiCuZn ferrite with a composition of ${(Ni_{0.2}Cu_{0.2}Zn_{0.6}O)}_{1.02}{(Fe_{2}O_{3})}_{0.98}$ was found to have the maximum initial permeability as a result of the variation of Cu content and the (Ni+Cu)/Zn ratio. Curie temperature($T_{c}$) of NiCuZn ferrite was decreased with the larger Cu content and increased with the larger Ni content. NiCuZn ferrites of ${(Ni_{0.2}Cu_{0.2}Zn_{0.6}O)}_{1-w}{(Fe_{2}O_{3})}_{1+w}$ composition milled for 20~80 hours had the maximum initial permeability at w=-0.015 and Curie temperature ($T_{c}$) was decreased with the increasing of $Fe_{2}O_{3}$ deficiency(w).

The hetero junction on dielectrics and ferrite for LTCC was prepared by using NiCuZn ferrite. The shrinkage behaviour of ferrite tapes in combination with a dielectric tape was investigated. The characteristics of NiCuZn ferrite were investigated using XRD (X-ray diffractometer), Dilatometer, FE-SEM (Field emission scanning electron microscope), EDS (Energy dispersive spectrometer). NiCuZn ferrite calcined at $700^{\circ}C$ had a good apparent density and initial permeability of magnetic properties. The shrinkage rate of the NCZF700 ferrite and dielectric material was similar. The multilayer revealed dense, uniform morphologies with excellent interface quality. Diffusion of hetero junction such as dielectric and ferrite was not occuring at $900^{\circ}C$.

In this study, two different (NiCuZn)-ferrite which were fabricated by using ultra-fine powders synthesized by the wet processing and conventionally commercialized powder, were investigated and compared each other in terms of the low temperature sintering and electromagnetic properties. Composition of x and w in $(Ni_{0.4-x}Cu_xZn_{0.6})_{1+w}(Fe_2O_4)_{1-w}$ were controlled as 0.2 and 0.03, respectively. The sintering temperature were $900^{\circ}C$ for ultra-fine powders by way of initial heat treatment and $1150^{\circ}C$ for commercialized powders. The (NiCuZn)-ferrite by ultra-fine powders showed love. sintering temperature than that of commercialized powders by over $200^{\circ}C$, and excellent electromagnetic properties such as the quality factor which is a important factor in the multi-layered chip inductor. In addition, characteristics of B-H hysteresis, crystallinity, microstructure and powder morphology were analyzed by a vibrating sample method(VSM), x-ray diffractometer(XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and scanning electron microscope(SEM).

Composition and process conditions for low temperature sintered NiCuZn ferrites were investigated, so as to fabricate multilayered chip inductor. The$Fe_2O_3$ deficiency for low temperature sintering was decreased with NiO contents of NiCuZn ferrites. The permeability of NiCuZn ferrites can be controlled in the range of 12~562 with the variation of NiO and $Co_3O_4$ contents. The $Q_{max} $ frequency of NiCuZn ferrites was decreased from 50 MHz to 3 MHz linearly with permeability increase from 60 to 560. The relation between the $Q_{max}$ frequency(Y) and permeability(X) of NiCuZn ferrites was expressed with the following empirical equation, logY=4.2-1.4logX.

In this study, nano-sized NiCuZn-ferrites for the multi-layered chip inductor application were prepared by a coprecipitation method and its electromagnetic properties were analyzed. Also, the property of low temperature sintering were studied with the initial heat treatment of powder.$(Ni_{0.4-x}Cu_xZn_{0.60})_{1+w}(Fe_2O_4)_{1-w}$ (x=0.2, w=0.03) were calcined at $300^{circ}C~750^{circ}C.$ The sintered NiCuZn-ferrites at $900^{\circ}C$ showed good apparent density $4.90g/cm^3,$ and magnetic properties of initial permeability 164 and quality factor 72. As the calcination temperature increase, the grain size of NiCuZn-ferrite increased with irregular grain distribution and its magnetic properties were deteriorated.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of $V_2$$O_{5}$ addition on the Ag and Cu precipitation in the NiCuZn ferrite layers of 7.7${\times}$4.5${\times}$1.0 mm sized multi-layer chip inductors prepared by the screen printing method using 0∼0.5 wt% $V_2$$O_{5}$ -doped ferrite pastes. With increasing the $V_2$$O_{5}$ content and sintering temperature, Ag and Cu oxide coprecipitated more and more at the polished surface of ferrite layers during re-annealing at $840^{\circ}C$. It was thought that during the sintering process, V dissolved in the NiCuZn ferrite lattice and the Ag-Cu liquid phase of low melting point was formed in the ferrite layers due to the Cu segregation from the ferrite lattice and Ag diffusion from the internal electrode. During re-annealing at $840^{\circ}C$, the Ag-Cu liquid phase came out the polished surface of ferrite layers, and was decomposed into the isolated Ag particles and the Cu oxide phase during the cooling process.

The pick up impurity was studied for preparing the NiCuZn ferrite powder by a ball milling method that usually uses in the industrial ceramic process. The raw materials of NiO, CuO, ZnO, and $Fe_2O_3$ powder were weighted according to various spinel composition and mixed for 18 hrs by a wet ball milling method after that the slurry was followed by spray dried and calcined at $700^{\circ}C$ 3 hrs. The calcined NCZF powder was finally ball milled during 65 hrs as same method. The stainless steel ball and jar are used as mixing and milling equipment and the solid concentration of the slurry was 25 vol%. The impurities, stainless steel pickup, were effected by the composition of raw materials especially iron oxide, nickel oxide in the mixing process and by the rate of calcine of NiCuZn ferrite in final milling process. The empirical equation of stainless steel pickup was driven in the wet ball milling system. Finally, the composition of NiCuZn ferrite could be controlled by the empirical equation.
