Ferroelectric, magnetic, and magnetoelectric effects for lanthanum modified $BiFeO_3-PbTiO_3$ ceramics have been investigated. The data show that magnetoelectric polarization coefficient, ${\alpha}_p$ is due to a linear coupling between polarization and magnetization, and that ${\alpha}_p$ is independent of dc magnetic bias and ac magnetic field. The values of ${\alpha}_p$ and magnetic induced susceptibility for lanthanum modified $BiFeO_3-PbTiO_3$ ceramics are much larger than those of single $BiFeO_3$ crystal. We believe that the magnetoelectric effect is significantly enhanced by breaking of the cycloidal spin state of a long-period spiral spin structure due to randomly distributed charged imperfections.

Opening a bandgap by forming graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) and tailoring their properties via doping is a promising direction to achieve graphene-based advanced electronic devices. Applying a first-principles computational approach combining density functional theory (DFT) and DFT-based non-equilibrium Green's function (NEGF) calculation, we herein study the structural, electronic, and charge transport properties of boron-nitrogen binary edge doped GNRs and show that it can achieve novel doping effects that are absent for the single B or N doping. For the armchair GNRs, we find that the B-N edge co-doping almost perfectly recovers the conductance of pristine GNRs. For the zigzag GNRs, it is found to support spatially and energetically spin-polarized currents in the absence of magnetic electrodes or external gate fields: The spin-up (spin-down) currents along the B-N undoped edge and in the valence (conduction) band edge region. This may lead to a novel scheme of graphene band engineering and benefit the design of graphene-based spintronic devices.

The time resolved electron spin resonance spectroscopy are used to two measurement methods of chemically induced dynamic electron polarization (CIDEP) and absorption ESR. The spectra of the semiquinone radical anion were successively detected in the laser flash photolysis of anthraquinone in the mixtures of 2-propanol and triethylamine. The semiquinone radical anion was fairly stable and its cw ESR could be observed. The rate constant (T1$^{-1}$) of the spin-depolarization of polarized semiquinone radical anion was 2.6 ${\times}\;1-^5$ sec$^{-1}$ and the decay of the radical anion was the first order with the rate constant (K$_1}$) of 300.0 sec$^{-1}$. The intensity of CIDEP spectra increased with the increasing the microwave power, but the Torrey wiggles appeared following with decay curves.

We assume that the KOREASAT fails the entry of the geostationary orbit due to the error at the apogee kick motor firing. A simulation is done for the satellite that has a geosynochronous orbit with a non-zero degree inclination angle due to the failure at the apogee kick motor firing caused by the unbalance of the fuel storage and the spin of the thrust vector, etc. We analyzed the evolution of the orbit using the perturbation theory and calculated the changes of the eccentricity and the inclination. WHen a communication satellite has the figure eight trajectory, the beam point also traces the satellite. In this paper, We develope an algorithm to attack the above problem by stabilizing the beam point using the adjustment of the roll angle of the satellite. The spin action on the polarization plane that occurs when a satellite passes the ascending node and descending node affects the efficiency of the communication a lot, so we did another simulation for the better yaw angle adjustment for the KOREASAT to reduce the spin actino on the polarization plane.

In this study, Ferroelectric vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene (VF2-TrFE) copolymer films were directly deposited on degenerated Si (n+, $0.002\;{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$) using by spin coating method. A 1~5 wt% diluted solution of purified vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene (VF2:TrFE = 70:30) in a dimethylformamide (DMF) solvent were prepared and deposited on silicon wafers at a spin rate of 2000 ~ 4000 rpm for 2 ~ 30 seconds. After annealing in a vacuum ambient at 100 ~ $200^{\circ}C$ for 60 min, upper aluminum electrodes were deposited by vacuum evaporation for electrical measurement. X-ray diffraction results showed that the VF2-TrFE films on Si substrates had $\beta$-phase of copolymer structures. The capacitance on highly doped Si wafer showed hysteresis behavior like a butterfly shape and this result indicates clearly that the copolymer films have ferroelectric properties. The typical measured remnant polarization ($P_r$) and coercive filed ($E_c$) values were about $5.7\;{\mu}C/cm^2$ and 710 kV/em, respectively, in an applied electric field of ${\pm}$ 1.5 MV/em. The gate leakage current densities measured at room temperature was less than $7{\times}10^{-7}\; A/cm^2$ under a field of 1 MV/cm.

The magnetic properties of Ni nanowires consisting of one to four atoms are investigated by mean of ab initio spin-polarized density functional calculations. Stability of zigzag-square $Ni_4$ nanowire is larger than $Ni_4$ nanowires with square. The magnetic moment of linear $Ni_1$ is $1.34{\mu_B}/atom$, which is the largest magnitude among moments of five Ni nanowires. The magnetic moment of Ninanowires show to be decreased by increasing the number of atoms in unit cell. The smallest moment is $0.91 {\mu_B}/atom$ for square $Ni_4$ nanowire. The spin polarization of zigzag-square $Ni_4$ nanowire is 32% higher than that of fcc bulk Ni.

Parahydrogen induced hyperpolarization (PHIP) technique is extensively studied to increase the sensitivity of the conventional NMR spectroscopy and recently try to apply this advanced technique into the revolutionary future of the MRI. The other hyperpolarization technique, which is widely utilized, is DNP (Dynamic Nuclear Polarization)-based hyperpolarization one. Despite its great advances in these fields, it contains several drawbacks to overcome: fast relaxation time, expensive equipment is needed, long build-up time is required (several hours), and batch scale material is hyperpolarized. To overcome all those limitations, one can effectively harness the hyperpolarized spin state of parahydrogen. One important step for utilizing the spin state of parahydrogen is doing well-developed experiments of ALTADENA and PASADENA. Based on those concepts, we successfully obtain the hydrogenation signals of ALTADENA and PASADENA from styrene by using benchtop NMR spectrometer. Also those signals were conceptually analyzed and confirmed with different mechanisms. To our best knowledge, those experiments using 1.4T (benchtop NMR) is the first reported one. Considering these experiments, we hope that parahydrogen-based hyperpolarization transfer studies in NMR/MRI will be broadened in Korea in the future.

$BiFeO_3$ films grown on (111) $SrTiO_3$ substrate have a rhombohedral structure, identical to that of single crystals. On the other hand, films grown on (110) or (001) $SrTiO_3$ substrate are monoclinically distorted from the rhombohedral structure due to the epitaxial constraint. The easy axis of spontaneous polarization is close to [111] for the variously oriented films. Dramatically enhanced polarization and magnetization have been found for hetero-epitaxially grown $BiFeO_3$ thin films comparing to that of $BiFeO_3$ crystals. The results are explained in terms of an epitaxially-induced transition between cycloidal and homogeneous spin states, via magneto-electric interactions.

We investigated the electronic structure and magnetic properties of zinc-blende CrP/SrBi interface by using the all-electron full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method within the generalized gradient approximation. It is found that the half-metallicity is destroyed when the two half-metals are in contact. Magnetic moments of the atoms forming the supercell differ considerably from the respective values obtained for the bulk structures of the two materials. Cr atoms being and not being in contact with Bi atoms have magnetic moment 3.43 and $2.69{\mu}_B$, respectively. Bi atoms lose their majority electrons which results in their negative polarization. Alkaline Sr atoms are very weakly negatively polarized. The spin distribution within the supercell is such that well separated regions of positive and negative polarization are seen, especially around the layer of P atoms being in contact with the layer of Sr atoms.

최근에 자구벽 이동을 이용한 race track memory, 혹은 나노자성체의 자구 동역학 등에 대한 관심이 집중되고 있다. 용량은 하드디스크의 크기를 가지며 속도는 SRAM, 집적도는 DRAM에 필적하는 새로운 메모리의 실현은 지금까지 이용되는 대부분의 메모리를 대체할 가능성이 있다. 이러한 메모리의 개발에 가장 기본이 되는 측정기술은 나노크기의 자성 구조체에서 자구 혹은 자구벽 이동을 측정하는 기술로써 현재 국내에서 자성 나노구조의 자화방향과 더불어 topography를 동시에 측정할 수 있는 장치는 본 SEMPA가 유일하다. SEMPA는 기존에 사용되어지던 SEM(전자 현미경) 에서 알 수 있는 나노 구조의 형상이외에 전자의 스핀방향을 검출함으로써 형상과 스핀의 결함된 imaging 을 할 수 있다. 일반적으로 기존의 SEM의 경우 고 에너지빔의 전자빔을 주사시키고 이때 발생되는 이차 전자의 수를 2차원상의 영역에 따라 달라지는 비로 mapping 을 하게 된다. 이때 전자의 수뿐만 아니라 이들의 스핀편향(spin polarization) 을 측정할 수 있다면 형상뿐만 아니라 표면에서의 스핀상태를 동시에 측정 할 수 있게 된다. 본 발표에서는 이 방법을 이용하여 나노구조체의 자구측정 결과를 제시하고자 한다.
