Magnetic Properties of dust cores made of mixtures of atomized pure iron powder and pure alumina powder has been investigated in the temperature range from 673 to 1073K. The effect of annealing on coercivity has been positive effect up to 973K and thus coercivity is gradually reduced form 280A/m (as-compressed) to 160A/m (973K). However, dust cores annealed at 1073K displayed a 15% increasing of coercivity by annealing at 973K. Hysteresis loss shows a tendency similar to coercivity. Microstructure observation of specimens shows grain refinement by recrystallization in the temperature range from 773 to 1073K.

We study the giant magneto-resistance (GMR), coercivity and their dependence on the ferromagnetic layers adjacent to the nonmagnetic layer in a spin-valve structure, [Pd/ferromagnetic] multilayers with perpendicular anisotropy. We fabricated a basic spinvalve structure of $[Pd/Co]_2$/ferro-magnetic layer/nonmagnet/ferro-magnetic layer/$[Pd/Co]_2$/FeMn and investigated the dependence of its GMR and magnetic properties such ad coercivity on the ferromagnetic material to reduce the coercivity of the free layer. We try to reduce the freelayer coercivity by controlled the anisotropy, we insert the material NiFe, $Co_8Fe_2$, $Co_9Fe_1$ to ferromagnetic layers adjacent to the Cu layer. Then, we have been able to reduce the coercivity as low as 100 Oe, and also achieved 6.7% of magneto-resistance ratio when the ferromagnetic layer thickness was 0,7 nm.

We observe the change of coercivity and exchange bias, depending on inserting material and thickness in a [Pd(0.6 nm)/$Co(0.2)]_5$/ FeMn(10) multilayer structure with perpendicular anisotropy. When 0.78 and 1.28 nm thick NiFe substitutes for Co in a $[Pd(0.6 nm)Co(0.2)]_4$/Pd(0.6)/NiFe(t)/FeMn(10) structure, we obtain the exchange bias of 360 Oe. In addition, when $Co_8Fe_2$ and $Co_9Fe_1$ are inserted for Co/FeMn interface, we obtain the exchange bias of 380 nm for a 0.68 nm thick $Co_8Fe_2$ and 580 Oe for a 0.52 nm thick $Co_9Fe_1$.

Dependence of the exchange bias and coercivity as surface magnetic anisotropy and ferromagnet materials for $[Pd/Co]_N$ and $[Pd/Co,(CoFe)]_N$/FeMn multilayers with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy were investigated. The coercivity was proportionally increased to 670 Oe by increasing stack number N in Ta(2.1 nm)/[Pd(3.1/N)/$Co(1.2/N)]_N$/Ta(2.1) multilayers with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. Also, the coercivity in exchange biased multilayer was tend to increased by increasing stack number N. But coercivity of each materials have been in order of Co (600 Oe), $Co_5Fe_5$ (520 Oe) and $Co_8Fe_2$ (320 Oe) as function of the ferromagnet materials. The other side, exchange force of each materials is 300 Oe when the reiteration layer number N is 3. In over number of reiteration layer 3, they maintained coercivity between 200 Oe and 300 Oe.
