We report on a numerical calculation study of two new functional properties in magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs), negative dynamic resistance and RF amplification. The magnetic dynamics in a conventional CoFeB/MgO/CoFeB MTJ with in-plane magnetization was investigated using a macro-spin model simulation. To examine the influence of thermal fluctuations, random external magnetic fields were also included. Using a voltage controlled bias circuit, the negative dynamic resistance was obtained from time averaged I-V characteristics at both 0 K and 300 K under appropriate external magnetic fields and bias voltages. Using this negative dynamic resistance property, we demonstrated RF amplification with a 100 MHz high frequency signal. Sizable RF amplification gain was observed without thermal fluctuation. However, at 300 K, the RF signal was not amplified because low frequency magnetization dynamics were dominant.

We have performed the simulation of ferromagnetic resonance spectra on the exchange coupled bilayer thin films at perpendicular configuration. Variables considered in spectrum calculation were the interfacial exchange constants per unit area, the layer thickness, and the surface anisotropy constants. In case of antiferromagnetic coupling, variation of exchange constant gave a great effect to the absorption spectra of the low and the high magnetization layer. Variation of thickness in low magnetization layer did nt nearly influenced the resonated field of the high magnetization layer. Also, the increase of negative surface anisotropy increased the resonance field of the low and the high magnetization layer.

This paper examines various aspects of the electromagnetic responses of the ring resonator located in the transverse electromagnetic cell. In addition, an equivalent circuit for the ring resonator is proposed and analyzed based on the electromagnetic phenomenon of the resonator. The equivalent circuit was simply modeled based on the concept of magnetization. A method for achieving a wider operating bandwidth of the negative permeability is provided. The ring resonator with its resonant frequency of 13.56 MHz was designed and its characteristics were examined in terms of S-parameters, effective permeability, loss rate, bandwidth, etc. The circuit and electromagnetic simulation results show an excellent agreement as well as that of theory.

This paper describes a busbar current differential relay in conjunction with a current transformer(CT) compensating algorithm irrespective of the level of the remanent flux. The compensating algorithm detects the start of first saturation if the third-difference function of the current exceeds the threshold; it estimates the core flux at the first saturation start by inserting the negative value of the third-difference function of the current into the magnetization curve; thereafter, it calculates the core flux during the fault and compensates the distorted current using the magnetization curve. The algorithm estimates the correct secondary current irrespective of the level of the remanent flux and needs no saturation point of the magnetization curve. The proposed relay can improve not only security of the relay on an external fault with CT saturation but sensitivity of the relay on an internal fault; the relay can improve the operating speed on n internal fault with CT saturation. This paper concludes by implementing the relay into a digital signal processor based prototype relay.

Bilayers of soft NiFe (150 nm-420 nm) on hard Ni (150 nm) were prepared by electrodeposition. The process of magnetization reversal in the NiFe/Ni bilayers was then investigated. The hysteresis loop generated by a magnetization reversal of soft NiFe under a positive saturation state of a hard Ni layer shows a shift along the negative field axis, which is clear evidence for the exchange spring effect in the NiFe/Ni bilayers. The dependence of the coercive field $H_c$ and exchange bias field Hex on the thickness of the NiFe layer was also investigated. As the NiFe thickness increases from 150 nm to 420 nm, both $H_c$ and $H_{ex}$ decrease rapidly from $H_c$= 51.7 Oe and $H_{ex}$ = 12.2 Oe, and saturate to $H_c$ = 5.8 Oe and $H_{ex}$ = 3.5 Oe.

Local magnetization reversal in the exchange-biased NiFe/FeMn and $[Pd/Co]_5/FeMn$ multilayers with in-plane and out-of-plane magnetic anisotropy was achieved by using laser annealing. The local annealed NiFe/FeMn film under the opposite magnetic field shows a magnetoresistance (MR) curve having two symmetric peaks at the positive and negative exchange biasing field (${\pm}H_{ex}$). The intensity of the nucleated MR peak rises as the exposed area extends during the laser annealing process, and the peak disappears under the reverse magnetic field. In the case of [Pd/Co]/FeMn films, the local magnetization reversal increased gradually as the laser power increases. The locally reversed magnetization was restored under the opposite magnetic field.

$YBa_2Cu_3O_X$ samples were fabricated by MPMG(Melt Powdered Melt Growth). Intitial composition of the mixed powders were prepared as follow ; $YBa_2Cu_3O_X$ : $Y_2BaCuO_5$ = 1:0, 1:0.2, 1:0.3, 1:0.4. After the first melt and cooling, 5wt% to 20wt% fo Ag power was added to the powder. Effects of the different initial $Y_2BaCuO_5$ and Ag addition amount on $J_c$ and magnetization of $YBa_2Cu_3O_X$ fabricated by MPMG method were investigated. The critical current density increased with the amount of $Y_2BaCuO_5$ and Ag. It was also observed that the difference between negative and positive magnetization in the magnetization hysteresis measurement at 77K was larger than the case where $Y_2BaCuO_5$and Ag were not added to the $YBa_2Cu_3O_X$ powders. It is concluded that $Y_2BaCuO_5$ sample with 40wt% amount of $Y_2BaCuO_5$ and 20wt% amount of Ag has not only the largest $J_c$ but also the improved pinning effect.
