Magnetic 0-D Nd₂Fe₁₄B powders are successfully fabricated using 1-D Nd₂Fe₁₄B nanowire formed by an efficient and facile electrospinning process approach. The synthesized Nd-Fe-B fibers and powders are investigated for their microstructural, crystallographic, and magnetic properties according to a series of subsequent heat treatments. Each heat-treatment process leads to the removal of organic impurities and the formation of the respective oxides/composites of Nd, Fe, and B, resulting in the formation of Nd₂Fe₁₄B powders. Nd-Fe-B fibers exhibit the following magnetic properties: The coercivity (H_ci) of 3260 Oe, a maximum magnetization at 3T of 109.44 emu/g, and a magnetization remanence (M_r) of 44.11 emu/g. This process easily mass produces hard magnetic Nd₂Fe₁₄B powders using a 1-D synthesis process and can be extended to the experimental design of other magnetic materials.

Effect of Cu and $DyF_3$ powder mixing with Cu-free (Nd, Dy)-Fe-B jet-milled powder on the magnetic properties of sintered magnets was investigated. The coercivity of a magnet prepared from the Cu-free (Nd, Dy)-Fe-B powder was about 10 kOe even though the alloy powder already contained some Dy (3.5 wt%). When small copper powder was blended, however, the coercivity of the magnet increased almost 100%, exhibiting about 20 kOe. On the contrary, the coercivity enhancement was moderate, about 4 kOe, when dysprosium content in the sintered magnet was simply increased to 4.9 wt% by the addition of small $DyF_3$3 powder.

We investigate the microstructural and magnetic property changes of $DyH_2$, $Cu+DyH_2$, and $Al+DyH_2$ diffusion-treated NdFeB sintered magnets with the post annealing (PA) temperature. The coercivity of all the diffusion-treated magnets increases with increasing heat treatment temperature except at $910^{\circ}C$, where it decreases slightly. Moreover, at $880^{\circ}C$, the coercivity increases by 3.8 kOe in Cu and 4.7 kOe in Al-mixed $DyH_2$-coated magnets, whereas this increase is relatively low (3.0 kOe) in the magnet coated with only $DyH_2$. Both Cu and Al have an almost similar effect on the coercivity improvement, particularly over the heat treatment temperature range of $790-880^{\circ}C$. The diffusivity and diffusion depth of Dy increases in those magnets that are treated with Cu or Al-mixed $DyH_2$, mainly because of the comparatively easy diffusion path provided by Cu and Al owing to their solubility in the Nd-rich grain boundary phase. The formation of a highly anisotropic $(Nd,\;Dy)_2Fe_{14}B$ phase layer, which acts as the shell in the core-shell-type structure so as to prevent the reverse domain movement, is the cause of enhanced coercivity of diffusion-treated Nd-Fe-B magnets.

최근에 희토류 이온이 도핑된 형광체를 램프, 플라즈마, 디스플레이 패널, 음극선관, 광전 소자에 응용하기 위한 연구에 많은 노력이 경주되고 있다. 특히 희토류 이온은 4f-껍질에 존재하는 전자의 독특한 성질 때문에 좁은 밴드폭과 강한 발광 특성을 나타내므로 발광 다이오드, 자석, 촉매, 디스플레이 패널용 형광체로 개발되고 있다, 본 연구에서는 고효율의 녹색과 적색 형광체를 개발하기 위하여 모체 결정은 SrSnO3, 활성제 이온은 Eu (유로퓸) 와 Tb (테르븀)을 선택하여 도핑하였다. 합성된 형광체 분말의 회절상을 XRD로 측정한 결과에 의하면, Eu3+와 Tb3+의 함량비에 관계없이 모든 세라믹 분말은 JCPDS #74-1298에 제시된 회절상과 일치하였으며, 주 피크는 $31.3^{\circ}$, $44.9^{\circ}$, $55.8^{\circ}$에서 최대값을 갖는 (110), (200), (211)면에서 발생한 회절 신호이며, 이밖에도 $22.04^{\circ}$, $65.4^{\circ}$, $74.3^{\circ}$에서 약한 회절 피크를 갖는 (100), (220), (013)면의 신호들이 관측되었다. Eu3+ 이온의 함량비가 0.05 mol 인 경우에 (110)과 (211) 피크의 세기가 최대값을 나타내었고, Eu3+의 함량비가 증가함에 따라 두 피크의 세기는 점점 감소하였다. XRD의 데이터를 Scherrer의 식에 대입하여 계산한 결정 입자의 크기는 Eu3+ 이온이 도핑된 경우에는 0 mol에서 최소의 크기를 나타내었고, Tb3+ 이온이 도핑된 경우에 입자의 크기는 0.05 mol에서 최소이었고 0 mol에서 최대값을 보였다. SEM으로 촬영한 표면 형상의 변화를 관측한 결과, Eu3+의 함량비가 0.15 mol인 경우에, 결정 입자의 평균 크기는 400~450nm이며, Tb3+의 함량비가 0.05 mol인 경우에, 결정 입자의 평균 크기는 270~290nm 이었으며, 입자의 형상은 균일하게 분포하는 구형 형태을 보였다. Eu3+와 Tb3+ 이온의 함량비가 점점 증가함에 따라 미립자들이 서로 뭉쳐져서 각각 약 720 nm와 580 nm의 크기를 갖는 큰 입자를 형성하였고, 불규칙적인 분포를 나타내었다. 여기 파장 293 nm에서 Tb3+가 도핑된 SrSnO3:Tb3+ 형광체 분말의 발광 스펙트럼을 측정한 결과에 의하면, Tb3+의 함량비에 관계없이 모든 시료는 주 피크인 550 nm (녹색)와 상대적으로 세기가 약한 500, 590, 630 nm에서 발광 스펙트럼을 나타내었다. 주 피크의 발광 세기는 0.01 mol~0.15 mol에서는 증가 하였고, 더욱 함량비를 증가함에 따라 급격하게 감소하였다. 이 현상은 활성제 이온의 mol 비가 증가함에 따라 이온 사이의 거리가 가까워져서 서로 뭉치는 현상이 주도적으로 작용하여 발광의 세기가 현저히 감소하는 것으로 판단된다. 0.10 mol 일 때 세기가 가장 강한 녹색 형광 신호를 얻었다. 여기 파장 400nm에서 Eu3+가 도핑된 SrSnO3:Eu3+ 형광체 분말의 형광 스펙트럼은 Eu3+의 함량비에 관계없이 590, 619, 696 nm에서 관측되었다. Eu3+의 몰 비가 0.01~0.05 mol 영역에서 619 nm가 주 피크이나, 몰 비가 더욱 증가함에 다라 주 피크의 파장은 590 nm로 이동하였다. 한편, 696 nm의 발광세기는 몰 비가 증가함에 따라 더욱 증가하였다.

This experiment was carried out to examine the effects of morphology on properties of La-Co substituted SrM ferrite. The magnetic properties of calcined and sintered materials were varried with the substitutional amount of La and Co elements in Sr-ferrite. In the substituted SrM ferrite, the atomic fraction x of La is directly related to the mole ratio n of iron oxide and the atomic fraction y of Co by equation x=2ny. The Hcj values of the calcined powder were about 270 kA/m and 240 kA/m with x=0.3 and x=0.2, respectively at stoichiometry, n=6.0. Crystallites of the sintered material were grown with a plate shape, and their size decreased with increasing mole ratios. Such a shape was caused by the initial state of crystallite formed after calcination. In case of x=0.3 and n=6.0, Br was 415 mT and Hcj was 355 kA/m, and in x=0.2 and n=6.0, Br was 410 mT and Hcj was 370 kA/m. The squareness in 2nd quarter of BH curve with x=0.2 was smoothly improved to compared with x=0.3.

We carried out these experiments to examine the effects of element substitution of Co and La-Co for Sr-ferrite. The calcined properties of Co and La-Co element substitution were examined, and also the sintered magnetic properties were measured with the stoichiometric condition. The magnetic properties of $(La-Co)_{0.3}-SrM$ composition are as follows; $(M_s)$: 71.08 emu/g, $iH_c$: 4.38 kOe and $B_r$ : 4.18 kG, $iH_ c$ :4.35 kOe, $BH_{max}$: 4.3 MGOe. The $BH_{max}$ value was increased up to 10 % compared with conventional values. Our results imply that the magnetic properties of Sr-ferrite can be improved by the substitution of those elements.

In order to increase the coercivity of (Nd, Dy)-Fe-B sintered magnets without much reduction of remanence, small amount of Dy compounds such as $Dy_2O_3$ and $DyF_3$ was mixed with (Nd, Dy)-Fe-B powder. After mixing, the coercivity of (Nd, Dy)-Fe-B sintered magnets apparently increased with the increase of Dy compound in the mixture. Addition of $DyF_3$ was more effective than $Dy_2O_3$ for the improvement of coercivity. Reduction of the remanence by the addition of Dy compound, however, was larger than expected mostly due to unresolved coarse Dy compound in the magnet. EPMA analysis revealed that Dy was diffused throughout the grains in the magnet mixed with $DyF_3$ whereas Dy was rather concentrated around grain boundaries in the magnet mixed with $Dy_2O_3$.

Recently, the grain boundary diffusion process (GBDP), involving heavy rare-earth elements such as Dy and Tb, has been widely used to enhance the coercivity of Nd-Fe-B permanent magnets. For example, a Dy compound is coated onto the surface of Nd-Fe-B sintered magnets, and then the magnets are heat treated. Subsequently, Dy diffuses into the grain boundaries of Nd-Fe-B magnets, forming Dy-Fe-B or Nd-Dy-Fe-B. The dip-coating process is also used widely instead of the GBDP. However, it is quite hard to control the thickness uniformity using dip coating. In this study, first, a $DyF_3$ paste is fabricated using $DyF_3$ powder. Subsequently, the fabricated $DyF_3$ paste is homogeneously coated onto the surface of a Nd-Fe-B sintered magnet. The magnet is then subjected to GBDP to enhance its coercivity. The weight ratio of binder and $DyF_3$ powder is controlled, and we find that the coercivity enhances with decreasing binder content. In addition, the maximum coercivity is obtained with the paste containing 70 wt% of $DyF_3$ powder.

Soft magnetic composite (SMC) materials based on powder metallurgy have a number of advantages over the conventional electrical steel sheets commonly used in electric machines. Thus, technologies related to these materials have shown significant improvement in recent years. In general, SMCs are magnetically isotropic owing to the shape of the powder, which makes them suitable for the construction of electric machines with three-dimensional flux and complex structures. However, the materials with isotropic magnetic properties (such as SMCs) have complex vector hysteresis; thus, it is very difficult to predict accurate loss properties. Therefore, we manufactured ring-type specimens of electrical steel sheets and SMC, which analyzed their magnetic properties according to the specimen size, and performed the electromagnetic field analysis of a high-speed permanent magnet (PM) motor driven at 800 Hz or higher using the measured magnetic information to compare the core loss of the motor. The reliability of this paper has been verified by measuring the efficiency after manufacturing the motor.
