Friction stir processing (FSP), developed based on the basic principles of friction stir welding(FSW), a solid-state joining process originally developed for various metal alloys, is an emergingmetalworking technique that can provide localized modification and control of microstructures in near-surface layers of processed metallic components. The FSP causes intense plastic deformation, material mixing, and thermal exposure, resulting in significant microstructural refinement, densification, and homogeneity of the processed zone. The FSP technique has been successfully used for producing the fine-grained structure and surface composite, modifying the microstructure of materials, and synthesizing the composite and intermetallic compound in situ. In this review article, the current state of the understanding and development of FSP is addressed.

It is shown that progressive crystallization of non-magnetostrictive Co-based metallic glass (VITROVAC 6030) leads to an increase of coercivity by more than three orders of magnitude. The mechani는 responsible for this phenomenon are interpreted showing that the main source for the giant increase of the coercivity is the pinning effect on the domain walls originating from the created crystallites of the size much smaller than the domain width (correlation length for ferromagnetic exchange interactions). It is also shown that gradually devitrified non-magnetostrictive metallic glass is an excellent model material for verification of N el's theory describing the Rayleigh rule.

A series of NiO/NiFe bilayer films are deposited with the variation of Ar sputtering pressure for the NiO layers only. As the pressure for the NiO layers increases, the exchange anisotropy field (HEX) decreases gradually and becomes extinct at 2.5 mTorr, at which the maximum coercive force (HC) in the NiO/NiFe films is obtained. Randomly oriented columnar structures with HEX a few tens of Oe and oriented columnar structures with zero HEX are observed in the NiP layers by highvoltage hihg-resolution transmission electron microscopy. The vanishing of the HEX in the oriented structures is attributed to the lack of exchange anisotropy energy (EEX) between NiO and NiFe layers, which results in little contribution of interfacial unidirectional pinning anisotropy to the interface of NiO/NiFe bilayer.

Magnetization behavior of sputter-deposited Co/Pd multilayers were characterized, and it has been found that even when the multilayers are sputtered at low pressure (10 mTorr), the coercivity of the multilayers can be increased to large extent without noticeable change of saturation magnetization by increasing the deposition pressure of Pd underlayer. It turned out that the surface topology of Pd underlayer gets rough as deposition pressure increases, which consequently affects the magnetization reversal mode of Co/Pd multilayers from domain wall motion to magnetic spin rotation. The enhancement of coercivity is attributed to the domain wall pinning effect which is comected with the surface roughness of Pd underlayer on which Co/Pd multilayers grow.

Increasing the critical current density of superconducting wire is one of the difficult challenges in the field of superconductivity. It is well known that the higher volume fraction of uniformly dispersed α-Ti is able to enhance the critical current density of superconducting material NbTi because α-Ti serves as a flux pinning center. The volume fraction of α-Ti highly depends on the grain size of NbTi because α-Ti precipitates at the grain boundaries or triple points. For this purpose, we investigated the effect of initial microstructures of NbTi obtained from hot rolling in various temperature conditions on the critical current density. In addition, subsequent heat treatment was assigned to precipitate α-Ti and groove rolling/cold drawing was adopted to produce a wire with a diameter of about 1.0 mm. It was observed that the band structure was formed after hot rolling at 500~600℃. It was also found that the volume fraction of α-Ti after hot rolling at 500~600℃ was higher and it led to the highest critical current density.

In the coarse grain HAZ adjacent to the fusion line, most of the TiN particles in conventional Ti added steel are dissolved and austenite grain growth is easily occupied during welding process. To avoid this difficulty, thermal stability of TiN particle is improved by increasing the nitrogen content in steel. In this study, the effect of high nitrogen TiN particle on preventing austenite grain growth in HAZ was investigated. Increased thermal stability of TiN particle is helpful for preventing the austenite grain growth by pinning effect. High nitrogen TiN particle in simulated HAZ were not dissolved even at high temperature such as 1400 C and prevented the austenite grain growth in simulated HAZ. Owing to small austenite grain size in HAZ the width of coarse grain HAZ in high nitrogen TiN steel was decreased to 1/10 of conventional TiN steel. Even high heat input welding, the microstructure of coarse grain HAZ consisted of fine polygonal ferrite and pearlite and toughness of coarse grain HAZ was significantly improved.

The effects of MnO$_2$ addition on the properties in Pb(Mg$_{1}$3/Nb$_{2}$3/)O$_3$ relaxor ferroelectrics were studied in the phase transition temperature range from -4$0^{\circ}C$ to 11$0^{\circ}C$. Specimens were made via solid state processing method. Dielectric properties, piezoelctric properties, electric-field-induced strain were examined to clarify the effect of MnO$_2$ addition in 0.9MN-0.1PT. As the amount of MnO$_2$ increases, the maximum dielectric constant and the dielectric loss decreases. Q$_{m}$ increased by increasing the doping contents of Mn. When 0.5wt% MnO$_2$ was doped, Q$_{m}$ increased from 95 to 480. The electric-filed-induced strain and polarization decreases as the amount of MnO$_2$ increases. From the experimental results, it was suggested that Mn behaves as an ferroelectric domain pinning element.ent.

$MgB_2$ superconductor is highly sensitive to the Mg content. Even if the samples are synthesized with the appropriate looking stoichiometric ratio, the heat treatment leads to the loss of Mg either to ambiance or to MgO. To avoid it, either excess Mg is added in the starting powder or sealed ampoule annealing is employed. In this paper the effect of open Mg sintering ambiance on the ex-situ $MgB_2$ was studied to enhance its superconducting properties. The open Mg ambiance was created to avoid any overpressure of Mg by providing a hole in Fe tube used as sample holder. The decrease in resistivity of the synthesized sample was observed through the increased temperature dependence of electron-phonon interactions. A clear enhancement in the superconducting cross-sectional area and hence the in-field critical current density is obtained.

Magnesium diboride superconductor is still of considerable interest because of its appealing characteristics towards application mainly at around 20 K. Unlike Nb-based superconductors, $MgB_2$ can be operated by cryogen-free cooler which provides a cost effective alternative at low field of around 2-5 T. To explore this operating field region considerable efforts are necessary to marginally improve the superconducting properties of $MgB_2$. Under this situation, even the heat treatment environment during the synthesis is considered as an important factor. The addition of $H_2$ gas in small amount with Ar as a mixed gas during annealing has an adverse effect on the superconducting properties of $MgB_2$. It is although interesting to find that the presence of Mg vapor along with hydrogen during heat treatment results in the appreciable improvement in the flux pinning and the overall response of the critical current density for the ex-situ $MgB_2$ samples.
