고특성 영구자석은 하이브리드 및 전기자동차의 구동모터와 풍력발전에 적용되면서 크게 주목을 받고 있다. Nd-Fe-B 영구자석은 가장 높은 최대자기에너지적을 가지고 있지만 고온(${\sim}200^{\circ}C$)의 구동환경에서는 보자력이 급격히 감소하기 때문에 사용할 수 없는 단점을 가지고 있다. 그러므로 큰 보자력을 가지는 Nd-Fe-B 영구자석에 대한 개발이 요구되고 있다. Nd-Fe-B 소결자석에서 보자력을 증가시키기 위해서는 Nd를 Dy 또는 Tb으로 치환하면 쉽게 증가시킬 수 있다. 그러나 이들 원소는 Fe와 반강자성 결합을 하여 잔류자속밀도를 낮추고, 적은 매장량과 한정된 지역에 편재되어 있어 수요급증에 따른 자원수급 및 가격 급등의 문제를 가지고 있다. 따라서, Dy 및 Tb과 같은 중희토류를 사용하지 않거나 최소한의 양을 사용하여 보자력을 증가시키고자 하는 연구가 많이 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 중희토류 원소의 저감 및 대체에 대한 연구들을 소개하고자 한다.

Cobalt was electrodeposited onto chemical vapor deposition (CVD) graphene/Si/$SiO_2$ substrates, during different time intervals, using an electrolyte solution containing a low concentration of cobalt sulfate. The intention was to investigate the details of the deposition process (and the dissolution process) and the resulting magnetic properties of the Co deposits on graphene. During and after electrodeposition, in-situ magnetic measurements were performed using an (AGFM). These were followed by ex situ morphological analysis of the samples with ${\Delta}t_{DEP}$ 30 and 100 s by atomic force microscopy in the non-contact mode on pristine CVD graphene/$SiO_2$/Si. We demonstrate that it is possible to electrodeposit Co onto graphene, and that in-situ magnetic measurements can also help in understanding details of the deposition process itself. The results show that the Co deposits are ferromagnetic with decreasing coercivity ($H_C$) and demonstrate increasing magnetization on saturation ($M_{SAT}$) and electric signal proportional to remanence ($M_r$), as a function of the amount of the electrodeposited Co. It was also found that, after the end of the dissolution process, a certain amount of cobalt remains on the graphene in oxide form (this was confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy), as suggested by the magnetic measurements. This oxide tends to exhibit a limited asymptotic amount when cycling through the deposition/dissolution process for increasing deposition times, possibly indicating that the oxidation process is similar to the graphene surface chemistry.

$Nd_{2}Fe_{14}B/Fe_{3}B$ 복합자성상을 근간으로 한 급냉제조된 합금을 외부 자장중에서 열처리를 함으로써 자기특성이 월등하게 좋아짐을 확인하였다. $Nd_{4}Fe_{73.5}Co_{3}(Hf_{1-x}-Ga_{x})B_{18.5}$ 조성 합금을 1~5 kOe 자장중에서 열처리함으로써 연자성의 기지상$(Fe_{3}B)$ 및 강자성상$(Nd_{2}Fe_{14}B)$의 결정입도가 20% 감소하였고, 그 결과 잔류자속밀도 $(B_{r})$ 및 최대자기에너지적, ${(B.H)}_{max}$가 30% 이상 증가하였다. 이러한 증가는 입도의 감소 뿐만 아니라 미세입도의 고른 분포에도 기인한 것으로 판단되었다. 보자력의 극대점은 잔류자속밀도와는 달리 특정결정입도에서 발생하며, 이러한 기구를 교환상호작용변수 와 연관하여 설명한다. $Nd_{4}Fe_{73.5}Co_{3}Hf_{0.5}Ga_{0.5}B_{18.5}$ 합금을 자장중 열처리한 결과 ${(B.H)}_{max}=15.8$ MGOe의 고에너지적을 얻을 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The waste of sintered Nd-Fe-B magnets was recycled using the method of dopingPrNd nanoparticles. The effect of PrNd nanoparticle doping on the magnetic properties of the regenerated magnets has been studied. As the content of the PrNd nanoparticles increases, the coercivity increases monotonically, whereas both the remanence and the maximum energy products reach the maximum values for 4 wt% PrNd doping. Microstructural observation reveals that the appropriate addition of PrNd nanoparticles improves the magnetic properties and refines the grain. Domain investigation shows that the self-pinning effect of the rare earth (Re)-rich phase is enhanced by PrNd nano-particle doping. Compared to the magnet with 4 wt% PrNd alloy prepared using the dual-alloy method, the regenerated magnet doped with the same number of PrNd nanoparticles exhibits better magnetic properties and a more homogeneous microstructure. Therefore, it is concluded that PrNd nanoparticle doping is an efficient method for recycling the leftover scraps of Nd-Fe-B magnets.

원자로 압력용기 재료인 SA508 steel을 온도 $70^{\circ}C$와 대기압하에서 최고 $10^{18}n/cm^2$까지 중성자를 조사시켜 조사량에 따른 자기이력곡선과 Barkhausen noise amplitude(BNA), Barkhausen noise energy(BNE) 및 미세경도 변화를 측정하여 이들 사이의 상관관계를 구하였다. 중성자 조사에 의하여 자기이력곡선은 변화가 없었으며, BNA, BNE 및 경도는 중성자 조사량에 따라 세 단계의 변화를 보였으며, 중성자 조사량이 $10^{17}n/cm^2$에서는 급격히 변하여 이들 사이의 상관관계가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 BNA와 BNE가 중성자 조사에 의한 재료의 미세 구조 결함을 조사하는데 비파괴적인 방법으로 가능성이 있음을 알 수 있었다.

Macroscopic hysteresis loops and microscopic magnetic moment distributions have been determined by a three-dimensional (3D) model for exchange-coupled Sm-Co/${\alpha}-Fe$/Sm-Co trilayers with in-plane collinear easy axes. These results are carefully compared with the popular one-dimensional (1D) micromagnetic models and recent experimental data. It is found that the results obtained from the two methods match very well, especially for the remanence and coercivity, justifying the calculations. Both nucleation and coercive fields decrease monotonically as the soft layer thickness $L^s$ increases while the largest maximum energy product (roughly 50 MGOe) occurs when the thicknesses of hard and soft layers are 5 nm and 15 nm, respectively. Moreover, the calculated angular distributions in the thickness direction for the magnetic moments are similar. Nevertheless, the calculated nucleation and pinning fields as well as the energy products by 3D OOMMF are systematically smaller than those given by the 1D model, due mainly to the stray fields at the corners of the films. These demagnetization fields help the magnetic moments at the corners to deviate from the previous saturation state and facilitate the nucleation. Such an effect enhances as $L^s$ increases. When the thicknesses of hard and soft layers are 10 nm and 20 nm, respectively, the pinning field difference is as large as 30%, while the nucleation fields have opposite signs.

(ZnO/Co) 다층박막 구조를 이용하여 Co 도핑한 ZnO의 상온강자성 특성을 조사하였으며, 특히 ZnO 박막층의 두께가 (ZnO/Co) 다층박막의 상온강자성 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. ZnO 박막층의 두께가 $20{\AA}$, $40{\AA}$일 때 증착상태에서는 각각 반자성과 강자성 특성을 나타내었으며 진공열처리 후에는 모두 강자성 특성을 나타내었다. 특히 ($ZnO\;40{\AA}/Co\;x{\AA}$)는 열처리 후에 음의 잔류자화 거동을 나타내었다. UV-Vis 분석을 통해서 Co 일부가 Zn와 치환되어 위치하고 있음을 확인할 수 있었으며, 열처리 전후에 대한 XPS 및 HRTEM EDS 분석에서 Co 클러스터의 형성은 관찰되지 않았다.

A magnetic device which enables the application of a strong and uniform magnetic field to thin film during sputtering was designed for controlling the magnetic anisotropy using a three dimensional finite element method, and the effects of the external magnetic field on the magnetic properties of sputtered thin films were investigated. Both the intensity and the uniformity of the magnetic flux density in the sputter zone (50 mm ${\times}$50 mm) was dependent on not only the shape and size of the magnet device but also the magnitude of stray fields from the magnet. For the magnet device in which the distance between two magnets or two pure iron bars was 80-90 mm, the magnetic flux density along the direction normal to the external magnetic field direction was minimum. The two row magnets increased the magnetic flux density and uniformity along the external magnetic field direction. An Fe thin film sputtered using the optimized magnet device showed a higher remanence ratio than that fabricated under no external magnetic field.

Alnico magnets can be used as magnetic bearings for the precise electric power measuring instruments such as watt-hour meters because they have high remanence ($B_r$), relatively high maximum energy product ($(BH)_{max}$), and excellent temperature stability. In this study, Alnico composite magnets were fabricated by appropriately mixing alnico alloy powders with epoxy resin and binder. The Alnico powders mixed with epoxy resin and a hardening agent with a mixing ratio of 96:4 were pressed and then cured to be a toroid-type ring magnet with an outer diameter (${\Phi}_{out}$) of 15 mm, an inner diameter (${\Phi}_{in}$) of 6.5 mm and a thickness (t) of 2.5 mm, respectively. The magnetic properties of the Alnico ring magnets were varied with the mixing ratio of Alnico powders that possess different average particle sizes. The Alnico ring magnet prepared by mixing 5 wt% of $50{\mu}m$ (small size) powder, 15~20 wt% of $150{\mu}m$ (medium size) powder, and 75~80 wt% of $300{\mu}m$ (large size) powder showed the best magnetic properties (remanent induction, coercive force, maximum energy product, and surface flux density). In addition, measurements of temperature and moisture characteristics for the Alnico ring magnets showed that the surface flux densities of the N and S poles decreased little and the repulsive distance between the magnets decreased as small as 0.05 mm after 10 days.
