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.

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).

Multi-layered chip inductors were prepared with good magnetic properties by sintering Ni-Zn-Cu ferrites at a lower temperature. A slurry with 49.5mol%Fe$_{2}O_{3}$, 20.5mol% ZnO, 20mol% NiO and 10nol% CuO was cast into tapes with 60-100\ulcorner of thickness with a doctor blade techniques. The tapes were screen-pronted with 100% silver electrodes, layered and pressed at 250kg/cm$^{2}$ and then sintered ant 900$^{\circ}C$ for 2h. Inductance with internal electrodes printed 5, 10, and 15 turns showed 4.9, 15 and 24$\mu$, respectively, at 1MHz.

본 논문에서는 소결 후 20 ㎛ 정도의 두께를 갖는 ceramic green sheet를 이용하여 초소형(1005) 칩 인덕터를 제작하였다. 인덕터의 패턴을 최적화함에 있어서 HP사의 HFSS(High Frequency Structure Simulator)를 이용하였고 이 과정에서 인덕터의 전기적 특성, 등가회로등을 추출하였다. 칩 인덕터를 제작함에 있어서 모든 적층 공정을 최적화하였다. 실제 제작한 인덕터와 simulation 결과의 관계성을 도출하고 이를 통해 목표 용량을 tuning하였다. 이와 같은 과정을 통해 1-39 nH의 인덕턴스를 갖는 1005크기의 칩 인덕터를 개발하였고, 이를 선진사의 제품과 비교할 때 우수한 전기적 특성을 나타내었다.

[ $ZnO-Bi_2O_3-Al_2O_3-B_2O_3-SiO_2$ ] nano-glass has been prepared by sol-gel method. The mean particle size was 60.3 nm with narrow size distribution. The nano-galss has been used as a sintering aid for the densification of the NiZnCu ferrites. The ferrite was sintered with nano-glass sintering aids at $840{\sim}900^{\circ}C$, 2 h and the initial permeability, quality factor, density, and saturation magnetization were also measured. The initial permeability of 0.5 wt% nano-glass added toroidal sample for NiZnCu ferrites sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ was 193.3 at 1 MHz. The initial permeability and saturation magnetization were increased with increasing annealing temperature. As a result, $ZnO-Bi_2O_3-Al_2O_3-B_2O_3-SiO_2$ nano-glass systems were found to be useful as sintering aids for multilayer chip inductors.

$Ni_{0.4}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.2}Fe_2O_4$ ferrite was fabricated by solid stat reaction method and sol-gel method. Because of the drawbacks of each method, we combined these two methods together. We proposed and experimentally verified that nanocrystalline ferrite additive was effective on improving the densification behavior and magnetic properties of NiZnCu ferrites for multilayer chip inductors. The initial permeability of the toroidal core Sample with 20 wt% nanocrystalline ferrite increased from 78.1 to 178.2 as annealing temperature is increased from $880^{\circ}C$ to $920^{\circ}C$. The density, shrinkage and saturation magnetization were increased with increasing annealing temperature, which was attributed to the decrease of additive grain size and increase of sintering density.

Effect of cobalt substitution on the sintering behavior and magnetic properties of a NiZnCu ferrite was studied. $Ni_{0.36-x}Co_xZn_{0.44}Cu_{0.22}Fe_{1.98}O_4(0{\leq}x{\leq}0.04)$ ferrite was fabricated by a solid stat reaction method. It was proposed and experimentally verified that $Co^{2+}$ substituted NiZnCu ferrite was effective on improving the quality factor and magnetic properties of NiZnCu ferrites for multilayer chip inductors. The ferrite was sintered without sintering aids, at $880{\sim}920^{\circ}C$, for 2 h and the initial permeability, quality factor, density, shrinkage, saturation magnetization, and coercivity were also measured. The quality factor (Q) was increased linearly up to x = 0.01 and decreased rapidly over x = 0.01. As the cobalt content increased, the initial permeability and density of the ferrites decreases. The initial permeability of toroidal sample for $Ni_{0.35}Co_{0.01}Zn_{0.44}Cu_{0.22}Fe_{1.98}O_4$ ferrites sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ was 130 at 1 MHz and quality factor was 230.
