The temperature dependence of the magentic moment was determined for the system of high $T_{c}$ superconductor $Y_{1-X}Sm_{x}Ba_2Cu_3O_{7-y}$ with x=0, 0.2, 0.4, 0, 6, 0.8 and 1.0. Also the magnetic susceptibility and the magnetic critical current density were measured from the magnetic hysterisis loops obtained at 30 K. From the results of the magnetic susceptibility measurements, the high $T_{c}$ phase were ranged from 14.7 to 49.1%. The values of the magnetic critical current densities were in the range of $10^3~10^4A/cm^2$. The penetration depth was approximately ninety times larger than the coherence length.

Six sigma methodology is the management tools not only can cause productivity enhancement through the quality control and cost reduction of products and services but also can be applied to various activities of corporates such as research and development. Development of high-density information storage media and devices is indispensible to accomplish the information convergence era. In this paper, we report the case of applying six sigma methodology and tools to the development project of high-density information storage media. The standard DMAIC process was applied to the project and pursuing goals and tools and results in each stage were explained in detail. By adopting the methodology, we could establish fabrication methods of information storage media of recording density higher than $250Gb/in^2$ with high uniformity and reproducibility. The magnetic property and performance of fabricated media were confirmed through measurement of the magnetic hysteresis curve.

In this study, we have fabricated magnetoresistive sensors of $50{\mu}m{\times}50{\mu}m$ cross type by trilayer structure of antiferromagnetic/nonmagnetic/ferromagnetic. The magnetic signal and magnetic domain of this sensor is measured. The sensor hysteresis loop is not in symmetrical at 0 Oe. This is may be due to the exchange coupling between ferromagnetic layer and anti ferromagnetic layer. This exchange bias value is 20 Oe. The sensor signal is measured at between the applied magnetic field and current. The sensor signal is measured between the applied magnetic field and current at $20^{\circ}$ and $90^{\circ}$ angles. The sensitivity of sensor signals is $20{\mu}V/Oe$ and $7{\mu}V/Oe$ at $20^{\circ}$ and $90^{\circ}$ angles, respectively. In addition, this sensor is also applied for the detection of magnetic bacteria at $20^{\circ}$ angle. From these results, we calculate the stray field of single bacteria is to be $5{\times}10^{-5}$Oe.

Carbon and small amounts of alloying elements were added in Fe-5.7% Al ferromagnetic damping alloy. The specific damping capacities(SDC) of these alloys were investigated in relation to the grain size and the magnetic hysteresis loops. The behavior of carbon was analysed by XRD and EDS. These alloys showed characteristic damping nature of ferromagnetic damping materials. The alloying elements decreased SDC and especially the carbon was remarkable. The SDC was observed to be not related with the grain size but with the magnetic hysteresis loop area. The remarkable decrease of SDC by carbon addition was attributed to the locking migration of $90^{\circ}$ magnetic domain wall by the interstitial carbon in Fe-Al solid solution. However, the carbides also seems to decrease the SDC.

The samples of $Ba_2CoZnFe_{12}O_{22}$ was synthesized by the solid-state reaction method. The toroids of $Ba_2CoZnFe_{12}O_{22}$ were sintered with various sintering temperature at 1050, 1100, 1150, and $1200^{\circ}C$, and studied by x-ray diffractometer, vibrating sample magnetometer, network analyzer, and Mssbauer spectrometer. From the XRD patterns, the density of samples increased with increasing sintering temperature. From the magnetic hysteresis curves up to 10 kOe at 295 K, the saturation magnetization ($M_s$) of $Ba_2CoZnFe_{12}O_{22}$ samples in various sintered at 1050, 1100, 1150 ,and $1200^{\circ}C$ were showed around $M_s$= 33.0 emu/g. However, With increasing sintering temperature, the coercivity ($H_c$) of samples decrease. Complex permeability and permittivity of samples in various sintering temperatures were measured between 100MHz to 4 GHz. With increasing sintering temperature, the permeability of samples increase.

MR characteristics in magnetic tunnel junction using CoO as the oxide barrier were investigated. Spin-dependent tunnel junctions were fabricated on 4$\^$o/ tilt-cut (111)Si substrates in 3-gun magnetron sputtering system. The top and bottom ferromagnetic electrodes were Ni$\_$80/Fe$\_$20/(300 $\AA$) and Co(300 $\AA$), respectively. The oxide barriers (CoO) were formed by the thermal oxidation at room temperature in an O$_2$ atmosphere and the plasma oxidation. The increase of coercive field due to antiferromagnetic-ferromagnetic coupling has been observed in O$_2$plasma-oxidized CoO based junctions at room temperature. At a sensing current of 1 mA, MR ratios of O$_2$plasma-oxidized CoO based junction and thermal-oxidized CoO based junction at room temperature were 1% and 5%, respectively. Larger MR ratios are observed in magnetic tunnel juctions with thermal oxidized CoO when sensing current more than applied 1.5 mA. At a sensing current of 1.5 mA, we have observed MR value of 28 % and specific resistance (RA=R$\times$A) value of 10.9 ㏀$\times$㎛$^2$. When specific resistance values reached 2.28 ㏀$\times$㎛$^2$, we have observed that MR ratios become as high as 120%.

The angular dependence of the exchange bias($H_{ex}$) and coercivity($H_c$) in multilayer $[Pt/Co]_N-IrMn$ with applied measuring field rotated toward in-plane at angle $\theta$ from perpendicular-to-plane, has been measured. Multilayer films consisting of $Si/SiO_2/Ta(50)/Pt(4)/[Pt(15)/Co(t_{Co})]_N/IrMn(50)/Ta(50)(in\;{\AA})$ were prepared by magnetron sputtering under typical base pressure below $2{\times}10^{-8}$ Torr at room temperature. Magnetization measurements were performed on a vibrating sample magnetometer and extraordinary Hall voltage measurement systems after cooling from 550 K under a field of 2 kOe applied along the perpendicular to film direction. The hysteresis loop shifts from the origin not only along the field axis but also along the magnetization axis. $H_{ex}$ and $H_c$ show a $1/cos{\theta}$ and $1/|cos{\theta}|$ dependence on the angle($\theta$) between the applied measuring field and the perpendicular-film direction, respectively. This $1/cos{\theta}$ dependence can be accounted for by considering the angular dependence of strong out-of-plane magnetic anisotropy introduced during the field cooling.

We investigate the exchange bias effect in $[Pd/Co]_5$ superlattice structures which are representative system of the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. We fabricate Si/$[Pd/Co]_5$/FeMn structures, and study the exchange bias variations by measuring hysteresis loop variations with thickness of FeMn layer. In order to optimize the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy, we fix the thickness of Pd with 1.1 nm and investigate the dependence of the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy on the ferromagnetic Co layer thickness. As results, we find that the biggest coercivity in 0.3 nm of Co layer without FeMn layer. The biggest exchange bias field is found for 0.3 nm of Co layer when we change the Co thickness with fixed FeMn thickness. When we vary thickness of FeMn layer, the biggest coercivity is found for 5 nm of FeMn layer. No exchange bias is observed when the FeMn layer is thinner than 3 nm, and the exchange bias field increases with FeMn layer thickness continuously up to 15 nm.

In granite quarry, stones are generally quarried along easily separating planes called as 'rock cleavage'. Because orientation and characteristics of the rock cleavage are directly involved with easy quarrying, it is the most important factor on selecting a direction of digging. Using AMS (anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility), we attempt to interpret rock fabrics in Geochang Granite Stone (JS, SD, AR, GD, BW, MD quarry) and discuss about determination of rock cleavages and correlation between the rock fabrics and cleavages. Based on mean susceptibility, thermo-susceptibility curves, and hysteresis parameters, Ti-poor MD and/or PSD magnetites are the main contributor to AMS of the granite stones. The systematic magnetic foliations with sub-vertical dip angle are developed in the whole granite quarries. In most of the granite quarries, the magnetic foliations are significantly consistent with grain plane. In the BW quarry, which has higher $P_J$ values than the others, the magnetic foliations coincide exceptionally with rift plane. These results suggest that rock cleavages in granite stone are related to rock fabrics meaning shape and spatial arrangement of crystals. Magnetic fabrics analysis using AMS method, therefore, can be a quantitative and effective tool for determination of rock cleavages in granite quarry.

The polycrystalline superconductor $SmBa_2$$Cu_3$$O_{x}$ is fabricated, and intergranular magnetic properties are investigated using the critical state model, from which some useful parameters such as the critical current density and the intergranular volume fraction are obtained. The curve fitting for M-H hysteresis loop shows that the intergranular critical current density of $SmBa_2$$Cu_3$$O_{x}$ / decreases in the form of ($1-T/T_{c}$ )$^{1.5}$ . The intergranular volume fraction is influenced by granular morphology. From SEM image, the grains of $SmBa_2$$Cu_3$$O_{x}$ are found to be randomly shaped. This mean:; that the intergranular volume fraction of $SmBa_2$$Cu_3$$O_{x}$ / should be smaller than those of superconductors, of which grains are plate-shaped such as Tl-based superconductor.
