The frequency dependence of magnetoimpedance (MI) effect in amorphous $Fe_{78}B_{13}Si_9$ alloy has been obtained. Magnetoimpedance (MI) effect is a high-frequency phenomenon, which describes the changes of impedance in any ferromagnetic sample, when a magnetic field is applied on it. MIR (Magnetoimpedance ratios) is defined as $\Delta$ Z/Z ≡ [Z (0) / Z ($H_s$)]-1 where $H_s$ is the saturating field along the long side of the sample, The MIR of the samples annealed in vacuum has been decreased normally except that the sample annealed at 5 MHz has been reached as much as 58%.

This study aimed to present a method to effectively suppress metal artifacts caused by spinal fusion surgery during spinal MRI study. For this purpose, a phantom made of spinal surgery screws was created to reproduce the metal artifact. Then, images were acquired with 1.5T and 3.0T MRI to evaluate changes in metal artifacts according to magnetic field strength. In addition, metal artifacts were evaluated by increasing the receive bandwidth to 200, 400 and 800 Hz/PX. As a result, metal artifacts occurring in images obtained from the 1.5T MRI decreased by approximately 52.2% compared to images obtained from the 3.0T MRI, showing a significant difference (p<0.05). In particular, the signal loss and signal pile up areas were reduced by approximately 52.81% and 42.71%, respectively, showing a significant effect in suppressing metal artifacts. On the other hand, when images were acquired while increasing the receive bandwidth from 200 to 800 Hz/PX, there was no significant effect, with a decrease of up to 8.93% for the 1.5T MRI and up to 10.98% for the 3.0T MRI (p>0.05). As a result of this study, increasing the receive bandwidth reduced signal loss and reduced some metal artifacts, but did not have a significant effect because it did not suppress signal pile up. However, when the magnetic field strength was reduced from 3.0T to 1.5T, signal loss and signal pile up were greatly reduced, effectively improving the metal artifact. Therefore, in order to suppress metal artifacts caused by spinal fusion surgery, study using a low magnetic field MRI can be said to be the most effective method.

경두개자기자극술(Transcranial Magnetic Sitmulation:이하 TMS)은 두뇌 외부에 설치된 코일을 이용하여 짧은 시간에 강한 임펄스형태의 자기장을 인가하여 두뇌 내부에 유도전기장을 발생시켜 특정 부위의 신경조직을 자극하는 비침습적(noninvasive)인 기술이다. 두뇌 내부에 정확한 자극 분포와 자극 세기를 알기 위해 Zubal Data에 근거한 정밀한 두뇌형상모델을 이용하여 수치해석 하였다. 수치해석 결과 복잡한 머리 내부에 유기되는 정확한 유도전기장 분포를 예측하였다.

공간솔리톤(spatial soliton)은 빔이 매질을 진행할 때 자기집속 효과(self-focusing effect) 와 자기확산 효과(self-defocusing effect)에 의해서 회절이 보상되어 형성된다. Kerr 매질에서는 굴절률의 변화가 빔의 세기에 비례하하므로 솔리톤을 발생시키기 위해서는 수 MW/$ extrm{cm}^2$ 이상인 빔의 세기가 요구된다. 광굴절 매질은 광굴절효과에 의해서 굴절률의 변화로 공간솔리톤을 발생시킨다. 비균일한 빔이 매질에 입사되면 전도대로 여기된 free carrier가 분포 차이에 의해서 확산이 일어나게 된다. 그리고 외부에서 걸어준 전기장 및 광기전력 효과로 인한 drift가 일어나게 되고 이것에 의해 생긴 공간 전하장(space charge field)에 의하여 굴절률의 변화가 생긴다.

Silicon single crystals are grown by Czochralski (CZ) method in different growing conditions. The different shapes of the crystal-melt interface are obtained with various magnetic fields. Effects of zero-Gauss plane (ZGP) shape and magnetic intensity (MI) on the crystal-melt interface in the crystal experimentally are investigated. The shape of ZGP is not only flat but also parabolic, which is due to magnetic ratio (MR) of the lower to upper current densities in the configurations of the cusp-magnetic fields. As the MR increases, the crystal-melt interface becomes more concave. It means that the hot melt can be easily transported to the crystal-melt interface with increasing the MR. Effective shape of the crystal-melt interface is found to depend on the magnetic field in cusp-magnetic CZ method. The experimental results are compared with other studies and discussed.

In this paper, we propose an improved magnetic field shielding structure to reducing the magnetic field generated in the wireless power transfer system operating at a low frequency band. The proposed structure consists of the magnetic material and the conductive material, magnetic field cancelling effect for power transfer is minimized while improving the leakage magnetic field cancelling effect by optimizing the various design parameters in the proposed structure. We analyzed and verified the efficiency of the wireless power transfer system and the reduction effect of the leakage magnetic field through computer simulation and measurement. Analysis results show that power transfer efficiency of the wireless power transfer system utilizing the proposed structure is 77 %, which is maintained at the conventional power transfer efficiency. In addition, compared with the structure maintaining high power transfer efficiency, leakage magnetic field strength is reduced to 29~37 % at the nearest point.

We have been unwittingly exposed to magnetic field. Biological effects due to electromagnetic field exposure has been studied over the past several decades. There has been epidemiological studies and laboratory studies. In the case of laboratory studies, the effect has been observed through the cell stimulation of an artificial magnetic field. The used frequency and waveform are various in the cell experiment, but the intensity of the magnetic field is usually around 10G. Intensity of Earth's magnetic field is about 300-400mG. Although this intensity is not much higher than artificial magnetic field as 3-4% amplitude, we can't ignore the effect because every living thing on earth has already adapted for long time ago. In this study, we have designed and implemented the 3-axis magnetic field generation system in oder to remove the static magnetic field in the real-time and kept its intensity less than ${\pm}5mG({\pm}0.5uT)$ using 3-axis helmholtz coil.

Most previous works about magnetic effect on plasma emission were interested in emission enhancement which was useful to various fields of plasma application. On the contrary, the following work is interested in plasma dissipation rarely reported in prior researches and expected to help advance plasma-controlling technique. Nd:YAG laser (1064 nm, 6 ns) was focused on three kinds of metals (Al, Ti and STS) and air. The permanent magnetic field (0.4 T) of Nd₂Fe₁₄B magnet was provided passing throughout laser-induced plasma. The spectra of plasma in both the presence and absence of the magnetic field were observed with varying laser power and delay time of the spectrograph. In this work it was uniquely discovered that the plasma always dissipated easily in the presence of magnetic field irrespective of the laser power. With the O I(777.42 nm)-line shape function fitted to Lorentz profile, its half width at half maximum (HWHM) was evaluated to verify that the magnetic field increased the plasma density. It is concluded that magnetic field facilitates not only plasma emission enhancement but also plasma dissipation, increasing recombination rate which is proportional to plasma density.

The solenoid valve is an electro-mechanical device that converts electrical energy into mechanical motion. The magnetic field of solenoid is very closely related to the number of coil winding, the intensity of current and the characteristic of magnetic material. There are disadvantages that the weight and size of valve increase, as increasing the number of coil winding, the intensity of current to augment the magnetic force. Therefore, the selection of magnetic material is very important to reduce the weight and size of solenoid valve.
