This paper shows a new effective approach to measure crystallization temperature of soft magnetic underlayer (SUL) for next generation of heat assisted perpendicular recording media. This approach uses temperature dependent reflectivity, which shows a clear jump when samples are crystallized. To achieve this measurement, an optical system is set up using hot plate and infrared laser. Reflectivity of SUL $(Co_{70}Fe_{30})_{92}Ta_3Zr_5$ shows a clear jump at its amorphous-crystalline transition temperature. Experiment results show this effect is clear in infrared region, and is weak for visible light.

Soft ferromagnetic materials are very useful for many sensors using magnetic materials with high permeability, low coercivity and low hysteresis loss. Among them, FeCoSiBNi amorphous magnetic films show us a good impedance change(about 3.05%/Oe, at 12MHz) by the exterior magnetic field in this experiment. These are produced by rapid solidification from the melt and the material is ejected in a jet from a nozzle and quenched in a stream of liquid. After that, we make them a shape of wire with different sizes of width. Thus, we can find that the impedance change (122.16%, at 12MHz) is occurred and the fabricated magnetic wire has the characteristics of good sensor element.

New process consisting of electrospray and epitaxial crystal growth processes was applied to the preparation of c-plane oriented barium ferrite ($BaFe_{12}O_{19}$) thin film for high density magnetic recording media. Sodium citrate aided process was proper to preparation of amorphous $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ nanoparticles with geometric mean diameter of 3 nm and geometric standard deviation of 1.1. The electrospray was applicable to the prepare of amorphous $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ thin film on a substrate, and the film thickness could be controlled by adjusting the electrospray deposition time. The c-plane oriented $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ thin film was successfully prepared by 3 step annealing process of the $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ amorphous film on a sapphire($Al_2O_3$) substrate; annealing at $350^{\circ}C$ for 30 min, annealing at $500^{\circ}C$ for 30 min, and annealing at $700^{\circ}C$ for 60 min.

We prepared $Co_{77}Cr_{20}Ta_3$ Magnetic layer for perpendicular magnetic recording media with introduce Two-step methode and Amorphous Si Underlayer on slide glass substrate. The thickness of magnetic layer were 100nm, and Underlayer were varied from 5 to 100 nm. The multi layer Properties of crystal structure were examined with XRD. Prepared thin films showed improvement of dispersion angle of c-axis orientation ${\Delta}{\theta}_{50}$ caused by inserting Buffer-layer and amorphous Si underlayer.

Magnetic CoW thin film alloys were electrodeposited from citrate baths to investigate the resulting microstructure and magnetic properties. Deposit tungsten (W) content in the films electrodeposited at $70^{\circ}C$ were independent of current density, while coercivity decreased from hard $(H_{c,//}\~150\;Oe\;and\;H_{c.{\bot}}\;\~240\;Oe)$ to soft magnetic properties $(H_{c,//}\~20\;Oe\;and\;H_{c.{\bot}}\;\~30\;Oe)$ with increasing current densities from $10\;to\;100mA{\cdot}cm^2$, with deposit W content $(\~40\%)$ relatively unaffected by the applied current density. X-ray diffraction analysis indicated that hcp $Co_3W$ phases [(200), (201) and (220) planes] in the CoW films electrodeposited at $70^{\circ}C\;and\;10mA{\cdot}cm^{-2}$ were dominant, whereas amorphous CoW phases with small amount of hcp $Co_3W$ [(002) planes] were dominant with deposition at $70^{\circ}C\;and\;100mA{\cdot}cm^{-2}$. At intermediate current densities $(25\;and\;50mA{\cdot}cm^{-2}),\;hop\;Co_3W$ phases [(200), (002), (201) and (220)] were observed. The average grain size was measured to be 30 nm from Sheller formula. It is suggested that the change of the deposit coercivities in the CoW thin films electrodeposited at $70^{\circ}C$ is attributed to the change of microstructures with varying the current density. Nanostructured $Co_3W/amorphous-CoW$ multilayers were fabricated by alternating current density between 10 and $100 mA{\cdot}cm^{-2}$, varying the individual layer thickness. The magnetic properties of $Co_3W/amorphous-CoW$ multilayers were strongly dependent on the thickness of the alternating hard and soft magnetic thin films. The nanostructured $Co_3W/amorphous-CoW$ multilayers exhibited a shift from low to high coercivities suggesting a strong coupling effect.

In this paper, we inveatigate frequency dependance of inductance effects of FeCoB amorphous magnetic films. First, amorphous magnetic film having near zero magnetostriction is the basic composition of (Fe$_{1-x}$ / $Co_{x}$)$_{79}$Si$_2$B$_{19}$ with x=0.94, 0.95 and in order to decrease magnetio . anisotropy, the film was annealed in 28$0^{\circ}C$/30min, 40$0^{\circ}C$/30min, 40$0^{\circ}C$/1hr with near crystallization temperature under non-magnetic field. As result of investigation, in case of x=7.95 than x=0.94, we could have obtained high values, which inductance ratios in the low frequency was 488%. And Quality factor Q was under 0.7 in all sample, in case of annealed in 28$0^{\circ}C$/30min, we could have obtained highest value, which x=0.9fl is about 0.62 in 400[kHz], and in case of x=0.95 was about 0.35 in 1[MHz].z].].

In this paper, we prove through the experiments the possibility that Co-amorphous magnetic films can be used as high sensibility materials. We fabricate amorphous film of Fe$\sub$4.7/Co$\sub$74.3/Si$_2$B$\sub$19/ by using sputtering method at high frequency. Then, we not only measure the magnetic Properties of the annealed samples, but also observe the magnetic domain by using an Kerr effect optical-microscope. As the result, we find that the samples have high sensibility

Soft ferromagnetic materials are very useful for many sensors using magnetic materials demanding high permeability, low coercivity and low hysteresis loss. Among them, FeCoSiBNi amorphous magnetic films show a good impedance change (about 5.01 %/Oe, at 10 MHz) by the exterinal magnetic field in this experiment. The magnetic films are produced by melt-spun method, one of the rapid solidification process. Ribbon shape wires were made from the films, and let them annealed in DC magnetic field to increase the maximum Giant Magneto Impedance ratio. Field annealing decreases the stress and changes the effective anisotropy. Thus, we can find that the impedance change (200.47 %) is improved and the fabricated magnetic wire has characteristics of good sensor element.

Magnetic and magnetostrictive properties of Tb-Fe and Tb-Fe-B thin films are systematically investigated over a wide composition range from 40.2 to 68.1 at. % Tb. The films were fabricated by rf magnetron sputtering using a composite target which consists of an Fe plate and Tb chips. The microstructure, examined by X-ray diffraction, mainly consists of an amorphous phase and, at high Tb contents, a pure Tb phase also exists. A progressive change in the direction of anisotropy from the perpendicular to in-plane occurs as the Tb content increases and the boundary at which the anisotropy change occurs shifts significantly towards to higher Tb contents with the addition of B. The saturation magnetization exhibits maxima at the Tb contents of 42 and 48 at. % for Tb-Fe and Tb-Fe-B thin films, respectively, and it is decreased by the addition of B. The coercive force, measured in the easy direction, decreases monotonically with the Tb content. Excellent magnetostrictive characteristics, particularly at low magnetic fields, are achieved in both Tb-Fe and Tb-Fe-B thin films; for example, a magnetostriction of 138 ppm is obtained in a Tb-Fe-B thin film at a magnetic field as low as 30 Oe. The excellent magnetostrictive properties of the present thin films are supported by the equally excellent magnetic softness, the coercivity below 10 Oe and a typical squared-loop shape with the saturation field as low as 1 kOe. Due to the excellent low field magnetostrictive characteristics, the present Tb-Fe based thin films are thought to be suitable for Si based microdevices.

우수한 연자성 특성과 자왜 특성을 동시에 나타내는 철계 아몰퍼스 박막을 이용한 고기능성 센서나 신호처리소자와 같은 자기탄성 디바이스를 구현하기 위해서는 자기이방성의 제어가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 철계 아몰퍼스 박막의 자기이방성을 제어하기 위해서 바이어스 응력을 이용한 자기이방성제어 방법을 제안하였다. 제안한 방법은 박막의 기판을 굴곡시킨 상태에서 열처리를 실시하여 박막의 응력을 해소하고, 열처리 후 박막기판의 형상을 원상으로 복귀시켜서 박막에 바이어스 응력이 인가되도록 하고, 이 응력에 의해서 박막의 자기이방성이 제어되도록 하는 것이다. 응력을 이용하여 자기이방성을 제어한 박막패턴을 자구의 관찰과 자화곡선의 평가를 고찰한 결과, 제안한 자기이방성 제어방법이 유용함을 알 수 있었다.
