We propose a new reliable, fast, and low cost identification method for similarly looking 0.3ct vivid yellow color of natural, HPHT treated, and synthesized diamonds. Conventional optical microscopy as well as low temperature PL(photoluminescence), FT-IR, UV-VIS-NIR, micro-Raman spectroscopy, and vibrating sample magnetometry(VSM) characterization were executed. We could not distinguish the natural diamonds from the treated or the synthesized stones with an optical microscopy, PL, FT-IR, and UV-VIS-NIR spectroscopy. However, we could identify the treated diamond with micro-Raman spectroscopy due to unique $1440cm^{-1}$ peak appearance. VSM revealed easily the synthesized diamond because of its ferromagnetic behavior. Our preliminary propose on employing the Micro-Raman spectroscopy and VSM might be suitable for identification of the similar looking vivid yellow colored diamonds.

바나듐(V)도핑이 $Fe_3O_4$의 자기적 성질에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 졸-겔 방법을 이용하여 $V_xFe_{3-x}O_4$ 박막들을 제작하고, x-ray diffraction(XRD), x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS), conversion electron Mossbauer spectroscopy(CEMS), vibrating sample magnetometry(VSM) 등을 이용하여 그 구조적, 자기적 특성들을 측정 및 분석하였다. XRD 측정 결과에 따르면 $V_xFe_{3-x}O_4$ x=1.0까지 입방(cubic)구조를 유지하며, 그 격자 상수는 거의 변화하지 않았다. 바나듐의 2p 및 철의 2p 준위들에 대한 XPS 측정 및 분석 결과, 바나듐은 화합물 내에서 주로 +3가의 상태로 존재하며, 성분비 x가 증가함에 따라 +2가 이온의 농도가 증가함이 나타났다. CEMS측정 결과 $V^{3+}$이온들은 사면체 $Fe^{3+}$자리를 주로 치환하며, $Fe^{2+}$이온들은 팔면체 $Fe^{2+}$자리를 치환하는 것으로 나타났다. 박막들에 대한 상온에서의 VSM측정 결과, 바나듐을 작은 양 도핑 할 경우(x=0.14) $V_xFe_{3-x}O_4$의 포화자화량(saturation magnetization)은 $Fe_3O_4$ 비하여 증가함이 나타났으며, 다량 도핑 할 경우$(x\geq0.5) Fe_3O_4$에 비하여 점차적으로 감소함이 나타났다. $V_xFe_{3-x}O_4$의 보자력(coercivity)은 x의 증가에 따라 증가함이 나타났는데, $V^{2+}(d^3)$ 이온의 팔면체 자리 치환에 의한 비등방성의 증가에 기인하는 것으로 해석된다.

Sengon (Falcataria moluccana Miq.) tree offers a wood of low quality and durability owing to its low density and thin cell walls. This study aimed to improve the properties of sengon wood by making the wood magnetic, producing new functions, and characterizing magnetic sengon wood. Each wood sample was treated using one of the following impregnation solutions: Untreated, 7.5% nano magnetite-furfuryl alcohol (Fe₃O₄-FA), 10% nano Fe₃O₄-FA, and 12.5% nano Fe₃O₄-FA. The impregnation process began with vacuum treatment at 0.5 bar for 2 h, followed by applying a pressure of 1 bar for 2 h. The samples were then tested for dimensional stability and density and characterized using scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX), Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, and vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) analysis. The results showed that the Fe₃O₄-FA impregnation treatment considerable affected the dimensional stability, measured in terms of weight percent gain, anti-swelling efficiency, water uptake, and bulking effect, as well as the density of sengon wood. Changes in wood morphology were detected by the presence of Fe deposits in the cell walls and cell cavities of the wood using SEM-EDX analysis. XRD and FTIR analyses showed the appearance of magnetite peaks in the diffractogram and Fe-O functional groups. Based on the VSM analysis, treated sengon wood is classified as a superparamagnetic material with soft magnetic properties. Overall, 10% Fe₃O₄-FA treatment led to the highest increase in dimensional stability and density of sengon wood.

A novel biguanide-functionalized $Fe_3O_4/SiO_2$ magnetite nanoparticle with a core-shell structure was developed for utilization as a heterogeneous organosuperbase in chemical transformations. The structural, surface, and magnetic characteristics of the nanosized catalyst were investigated by various techniques such as transmission electron microscopy (TEM), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM), elemental analyzer (EA), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), $N_2$ adsorption-desorption (BET and BJH) and FT-IR. The biguanide-functionalized $Fe_3O_4/SiO_2$ nanoparticles showed a superpara-magnetic property with a saturation magnetization value of 46.7 emu/g, indicating great potential for application in magnetically separation technologies. In application point of view, the prepared catalyst was found to act as an efficient recoverable nanocatalyst in nitroaldol and domino Knoevenagel condensation/Michael addition/cyclization reactions in aqueous media under mild condition. Additionally, the catalyst was reused six times without significant degradation in catalytic activity and performance.

반응소결공정(RSP : Reaction Sintering Process)을 이용하여 YF댸₃와 Fe₂O₃의 성분에 소결첨가재 Bi₂O₃를 첨가하여 YIG를 합성하였다. Bi₂O₃첨가량과 소결온도에 따른 YIG 소결체의 미세구조 및 자기적 특성변화에 대해 주사전자현미경, X-선 회절분석기 및 시료 진동형 자력계를 이용하여 조사하였다. 소량의 소결첨가재 Bi₂O₃첨가시 YIG 소결체의 격자상수는 12.387에서 12.420 Å으로 증가하였다. 이는 상대적으로 이온반경이 큰 Bi 이온이 12면체 Y 이온 자리로 치환되었기 때문인 것으로 여겨진다. Bi₂O₃를 1.0 wt% 첨가하였을 때 비교적 균질한 미세구조를 보였으며, 1350℃에서 소결한 YIG의 밀도가 이론밀도의 98% 이상의 치밀화를 보였다. Bi₂O₃가 0.0 wt%에서 1.5 wt%로 첨가량이 증가함에 따라 상온에서의 포화자화값(M/sub s/)은 조금씩 증가하는 경향을 보였으나 큰 변화는 없었다. 반응소결공정을 이용 YIG 소결시 소결첨가제 Bi₂O₃가 1.0 wt%이고, 소결온도 1350℃에서 비교적 우수한 소결특성과 자기특성을 가지는 YIG 소결체를 얻을 수 있었다.

The change of saturation magnetization in boronized low carbon microalloyed steels was investigated as a function of boronizing time. Specimens were boronized in an electrical resistance furnace for times ranging from 3 to 9 h at 1123 K. The metallurgical and magnetic properties of the specimens were investigated using optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM). A boride layer with saw-tooth morphology consisting of FeB and $Fe_2B$ was observed on the surface, its thickness ranged from 63 ${\mu}m$ to 140 ${\mu}m$ depending on the boronizing time. XRD confirmed the presence of $Fe_2B$ and FeB on the surface. The saturation magnetization decreased with increasing boronizing time. This decrease was attributed to the increased thickness of the FeB and $Fe_2B$ phases. Cracks were observed at the FeB/$Fe_2B$ interfaces of the samples. The number of interfacial cracks increased with increasing boronizing time.

Nano-crystalline hexaferrite $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$(BaM) thin films have been prepared by the sol-gel method. A solution of Ba-nitrate and Fe-nitrates was dissolved in solvent with the stoichiometric ratio Ba/Fe=1/10. Films were spin-coated onto $SiO_2$Si substrates, dried and then heated in air at various temperatures. In films prepared at a drying temperature $T_d=250^{\circ}C$ and a crystallizing temperature 650${\circ}C$, single-phase BaM was obtained. High coercivities were obtained in these nano-crystalline thin films, 4~5.5 kOe for hexaferrite. Polycrystalline BaM/$SiO_2$/Si(100) thin films were characterized by Rutherford backscattering (RBS), thermogravimetry (TGA), differential thermal analysis (DTA), x-ray diffraction (XRD), and vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM), as well as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The perpendicular coercivity $H_{C\bot}$ and in-plane coercivity $H_{CII}$ after annealing at 650${\circ}C$ for 2 hours were 4766 Oe and 4480 Oe, respectively, at room temperature, under a maximum applied field of 10 kOe.

Ultrafine $Co_{0.9}Mn_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$ powders have been fabricated by a sol-gel method. Structural and magnetic properties of the powders were investigated by x-ray diffractometry, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Mossbauer spectroscopy, and vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM). Co-Mn ferrite powders that were fired at and above 773 K contained only a single spinel phase and behaved ferrimagnetically. Powders fired at 673 and 723 K had a spinel structure and were mixed paramagnetic and ferrimagnetic in nature. The magnetic behavior of Co-Mn ferrite powders fired at and above 873 K showed that an increase of the firing temperature yielded a decrease in the coercivity and an increase in the saturation magnetization. The maximum saturation magnetization and coercivity of Co-Mn ferrite powders were 66.7 emu/g and 1523 Oe, respectively, Mossbauer spectra of the powder fired at 923 K were taken at various temperatures ranging from 13 to 850 K. The iron ions.at both A (tetrahedral) and B (octahedral) sites were found to be in ferric high-spin states. The Nel temperature $T_N$ was found to be 850 $\pm$ 2 K. Debye temperatures far A and B sites were found to be $\Theta_A = 757 \pm$5K and $Theta_B = 282 \pm$5 K, respectively.

A series of shock wave pulses with Mach number 2.2 of 100, 200, and 300 shocks were applied to lead sulfide (PbS) nanomaterials at intervals of 5 sec per shock pulse. To investigate the crystallographic, electronic, and magnetic phase stabilities, powder X-ray diffractometry (XRD), diffused reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), and vibrating-sample magnetometry (VSM) were employed. The material exhibited a rock salt structure (NaCl-type structure); XRD results indicated that material is monoclinic with space group C121 (5). Further, XRD results showed shifts due to lattice contraction and expansion when material was subjected to shock wave pulses, indicating stable material structure. Based on the data obtained, we believe that the PbS material is a good choice for high-pressure, high-temperature, and aerospace applications due to its superior shock resistance characteristics.

Variation of magnetic properties through Cr substitution for Co in inverse-spinel $CoFe_2O_4$ has been investigated by vibrating-sample magnetometry (VSM) and conversion electron $M\ddot{o}ssbauer$ spectroscopy (CEMS). $Cr_{x}Co_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$ samples were prepared as thin films by a sol-gel method. The lattice constant of the $Cr_{x}Co_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$ samples was found to remain unchanged, explainable in terms of a reduction of tetrahedral $Fe^{3+}$ ion to $Fe^{2+}$ due to substitution of $Cr^{3+}$ ion into octahedral $Co^{2+}$ site. The existence of the tetrahedral $Fe^{2+}$ ions in $Cr_{x}Co_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$ was confirmed by CEMS analysis. Room-temperature magnetic hysteresis curves for the $Cr_{x}Co_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$ films measured by VSM revealed that the saturation magnetization $M_s$ increases by Cr doping. The $M_s$ is maximized when x = 0.1 and decreases for higher x but is still bigger than that of $CoFe_2O_4$. The increase of $M_s$ can be explained partly by the reduction of the tetrahedral $Fe^{3+}$ ion to $Fe^{2+}$.
