Using first principles calculations, we investigated the interface structure effects on the magnetic properties of the Fe/BaTiO3 system. On the BaO-terminated surface, a Fe monolayer is formed as two Fe atoms are adsorbed on the top sites of Ba and O in the ($1{\times}1$) surface unit and a Fe ML is formed on the TiO2-terminated surface as two Fe atoms are adsorbed on the two O top sites. The magnetic anisotropy energy of Fe was higher on the TiO2?-erminated surface (1.5 eV) than on the BaO-terminated surface (0.5 eV). The decomposed electron density of the states showed that the stronger hybridization of Fe with the TiO2 layer than with the BaO layer is the most important reason for the higher magnetic anisotropy energy.

Magnetotelluric (MT) survey investigates electrical structure of subsurface by measuring natural electromagnetic fields on the earth surface. For the accurate interpretation of MT data, the precise three-dimensional (3-D) modeling algorithm is prerequisite. Since MT responses are affected by electrical anisotropy of medium, the modeling algorithm has to incorporate the electrical anisotropy especially when analyzing time-lapse MT data sets, for monitoring engineered geothermal system (EGS) reservoir, because changes in different-vintage MT-data sets are small. This study developed a MT modeling algorithm for the simulation MT responses in the presence of electrical anisotropy by improving a pre-existing staggered-grid finite-difference MT modeling algorithm. After verifying the developed algorithm, we analyzed the effect of vertical transversely isotropic (VTI) anisotropy on MT responses. In addition, we are planning to extend the applicability of the developed algorithm which can simulate not only the horizontal transversely isotropic (HTI) anisotropy, but also the tiled transversely isotropic (TTI) anisotropy.

Induced anisotropy with the energy of $6{\times}10^4\; J/m^3$ is obtained in amorphous Sm-Fe based thin films which are fabricated by rf magnetron sputtering under a magnetic field of 500~600 Oe. Compared with conventional thin films, the anisotropic thin films exhibit a similar "saturation" magnetostriction, but show a very large anisotropy in magnetorstiction which is of significant practical importance due to increased strain at a particular direction. It is shown from a systematic investigation over a wide composition range for binary Sm-Fe alloys that anisotropy is also induced, though small, during a normal sputtering procedure due to the stray field, and the largest anisotropy is observed in the composition range of 25~30 at.% Sm. Furthermore, induced anisotropy is also found to be formed by magnetic annealing, but the anisotropy energy is much smaller than that by magnetic sputtering. This may be because the volume diffusion by which atoms move during magnetic annealing to from induced anisotropy is much slower than the surface diffusion which is expected to be a dominant factor during magnetic sputtering.puttering.

At 34 at% Co-Fe, the aluminum anodic oxidized (alumite) films of particle diameter $150{\AA}$ have large perpendicular anisotropy energy and high coercive force. However, for the samples of particle diameter larger than $450{\AA}$, the bottom of each particle forms abnormal part called branch-shaped different from that of particle diameter $150{\AA}$. In this case the magnetic anisotropy energy Ku was about zero at the compositions of 45 and 75 at% Co. Furthermore, at tile compositions from 50 to 70 at% Co, the values of Ku became negative value. We confirmed that Fe-C deposited the bottom of particle orients very strongly and it has a large influence upon the magnetic anisotropy energy.

Spin Transfer Torque (STT) is of great interest in data writing scheme for the Magneto-resistive Random Access Memory (MRAM) using Magnetic Tunnel Junction (MTJ). Scalability for high density memory requires ferromagnetic electrodes having the perpendicular magnetic easy axis. We investigated CoZr as the ferromagnetic electrode. It is observed that interfacial magnetic anisotropy is preferred perpendicular to the plane with thickness dependence on the interfaces with Pt layer. The anisotropy energy (Ku) with thickness dependence shows a change of magnetic-easy-axis direction from perpendicular to in-plane around 1.2 nm of CoZr. The interfacial anisotropy (Ki) as the directly related parameters to switching and thermal stability, are estimated as $1.64erg/cm^2$ from CoZr/Pt multilayered system.

A novel method for evaluating the anisotropy of the deterministic features in a stochastic 2D data is introduced. The ability of the wavelet transform for the identification of the abrupt discontinuities could be used to characterize the boundary of the deterministic area in a 2D stochastic data, such as flocs in paper structure. The one-dimensional wavelet transform with a small-scale range in MD and CD could quantify the amount of the edge in both directions, depending on the intensity of each floc. The flocs that are aligned in the MD direction result in a higher value of local wavelet energy in the CD direction. Therefore, the ratio of the total wavelet energy in CD and MD directions can be used as a new anisotropy index. This index is a measure of the floc-orientation and can provide an excellent tool to obtain the orientation distribution and the major oriented angle of flocs. Various simulated images and real stochastic data such as local gloss variation of printed image and formation image, have been tested and the results show this analysis method is very reliable to measure the anisotropy of the deterministic features.

The rotatable anisotropy effect was observed in the ferromagnetic resonance measurement in exchange coupled ferromagnetic/antiferromagnetic thin films and it was due to rotation of antiferromagnetic layer by the exchange coupling energy. We analyzed the CoFe thickness dependence of rotatable anisotropy field and ferromagnetic resonance linewidth in exchange coupled $CoFe(t_F)/MnIr(2.5nm)$ thin films. The rotatable anisotropy field was inversely propositional to the CoFe thickness and it was well fitted by the rotatable anisotropy energy of $0.96erg/cm^2$. The ferromagnetic resonance linewidth were linearly propositional to the rotatable anisotropy field in $t_F$ < 50 nm, while it was more dominated by the eddy current effect in $t_F$ > 50 nm.

We suggest the phenominological model to determine the mangetoelastic coupling coefficient in Cu/Ni/Cu thin films by considering effective anisotropy energy with magnetic film thicknesses. This indirect determination can be applied other single crystalline systems.
