최근 자성박막과 이를 이용해 전자의 스핀을 제어할 수 있게 되면서, 이를 이용한 자기미세소자에 대해 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 그 중 자성 다층박막과 자성 터널 접합에 대한 연구가 많이 행해지고 있는데, Co/cu 다층박막으로 제조한 소자는 상온에서도 65%를 넘는 큰 자기저항비를 보여주고 있다[1]. 또 다른 자기전자소자로 스핀 밸브 트랜지스터(SVT)가 있다[2]. 스핀 밸브 트랜지스터는 두 반도체 기판 사이에 금속 박막을 다층으로 삽입된 구조로 구성되어있다. (중략)

현대의 영구자석들은 Alnico 주조자석을 제외하고는 모두 자성분말을 이용한 분말야금학적인 소결자석 또는 본드자석 형태로 제조된다. 따라서 자성분말의 형상, 크기, 입도, 순도, 조성 등이 자석의 자기적 특성을 우선적으로 결정하며, 이러한 구조적, 화학적 인자들은 영구자석의 고성능화를 위해 자성분말 또는 결정립이 초미세화 함에 따라 자기 특성을 결정하는 더욱 중요한 요소로 작용하고 있다. 그러므로 이들 인자와 자기적 특성간의 상관관계를 정확히 규명하고 보다 잘 이해하는 것이 극대화된 자기 특성을 갖는 자성체를 개발하는데 절대적으로 필요하다.

The MR ratios and the exchange biasing field and interlayer coupling field were investigated in $Ni_{91}Fe_{19}/Co_{90}Fe_{10}/Cu/Co_{90}Fe_{10}/NiO$ spin-valve sandwiches grown on antiferromagnetic NiO films as a function of the NiO thickness, the thickness of Cu and pinning layer $Co_{90}Fe_{10}$. The spin-valve sandwiches were deposited on the Corning glass 7059 by means of the 3-gun dc and 1-gun rf magnetron sputtering at a 5 mtorrpartial Ar pressure and room temperature. The deposition field was 50 Oe. The MR curve was measured by the four-terminal method with applied magnetic soft bilayer [NiFe/CoFe] (90$\AA$) decreased dramatically to less than 10 Oe when the NiFe/CoFe bilayer used an NiFe bilayer thicker that 20$\AA$. So NiFe layer improved the softmagnetic properties in the NiFe/CoFe bilayer. The GMR ratio and the magnetic field sensitivity of the spin-valve film $Ni_{91}Fe_{19}(40{\AA})/Co_{90}Fe_{10}(50{\AA}) /Cu(30{\AA})/Co_{90}Fe_{10}(35{\AA})/NiO(800{\AA})$ was 6.3% and about 0.5 (%/Oe), respectively. The MR ratio had 5.3% below an annealing temperature of 20$0^{\circ}C$ which slowly decreased to 3% above 30$0^{\circ}C$. The large blocking temperature of the spin-valve film was taken (as being) due to the good stability of the NiO films. Thus, the spin-valve films with a free NiFe/CoFe layer clearly had a high large GMR output and showed a effective magnetic field sensitivity for a suitable spin-valve head material.

In order to the magnetization and magnetic entropy change for superparamagnetic ferrite nanoparticles, ultrafine cobalt ferrite particles were synthesized using a mircoemulsion method. The peak of X-ray diffraction pattern corresponds to a cubic spinel structure with the lattice constant 8.40 $\AA$. The average particle size, determined from X-ray diffraction line-broadening using Scherrer's, is 7.9 nm. The maximal magnetizations measured at 5 and 300 K are 24.3 emu/g and 17.2 emu/g, respectively. Superparamagnetic behavior of the sample is confirmed by the coincidence of the M vs. H/T plots at various temperatures. According to the thermodynamic theory, magnetic entropy change decreases with increasing temperature.

We investigated the magnetic properties of VRu(001) surface by using the all electron full-potenial linearized augmented planewave (FLAPW) energy band method within the GGA. We consider two different configurations, V and Ru surface layers, respectively. The V atoms in surface layer was calculated to have large magnetic moment of $1.71_{{\mu}_B}$ while the Ru surface layer to have nearly nonmagnetic state. The calculated spin-polarized density of states. spin density contour, and charge density were discussed in relation to the magnetic properties of VRu(001) surface.

Formation of a narrow magnetic domain wall is demonstrated by micromagnetics simulations. It is found that the domain wall width can be shrunk in a local exchange coupled system. The local exchange coupled system means that only a part of a ferromagnetic layer has an exchange coupling with another ferromagnetic layer. The system can be considered as two parts in the lateral dimensions: one is an exchange coupled region and another is a free region. Since the two regions have quite different local switching fields, the domain wall will be formed at the interface between the two regions at moderate field ranges.

$Zn_{1-x}\;^{57}Fe_xO(x=0.01, 0.02, 0.03)$ compounds were fabricated using the solid-state reaction method. In order to determine magnetic behavior and ionic state of the doped transition metal ($^{57}Fe$) in ZnO, we carried out $M\ddot{o}ssbauer$ measurements at various temperatures ranging from 13 to 295 K. $M\ddot{o}ssbauer$spectra for $Zn_{0.97}\;^{57}Fe_{0.03}O$ at 4.2 K have shown the ferromagnetic phase (sextet), but the only paramagnetic phase (doublet) is seen at 295 K. The hysteresis loop below 77 K for $Zn_{0.97}\;^{57}Fe_{0.03}O$ indicated the coexistence of ferromagnetic and paramagnetic phases.

We grew spinel structured $CoMn_2O_4$ thin films and have studied post-growth annealing effects on their physical properties. After post-growth annealing at $700^{\circ}C$ that is lower than the growth temperature ($720^{\circ}C$), crystal structure became cleared accompanying a change of surface structure. In the temperature dependences of magnetization, phase transitions were observed at ~100 K for both before and after post-growth treated samples which were not observed for the bulk. For both samples, ferromagnetic behaviors were observed above 100 K while it turned to ferrimagnetism at low temperature below 100 K. In particular, the ferrimagnetic behavior became strong after the post-growth treatment. These results indicate that the post-growth annealing process plays an important role in determining the physical properties of spinel $CoMn_2O_4$ thin film.

Magnetism of molecular nanomagnet, which attracted a lot of academic attention after the discovery of the macroscopic quantum tunneling of magnetism, is reviewed. Molecular nanomagnet is metal-organic material in which magnetic ions are regularly located in the organic skeleton. Also, the interaction between the molecules is very small and those molecules form macroscopic molecular crystal in which molecules are residing at the element points in the crystal. Molecular nanomagnets show a lot of interesting features, especially, equivalence of macroscopic magnetic properties and molecular magnetic properties. In this paper, research results on molecular nanomagnet with microscopic tool like NMR are reviewed mainly. The new method to observe the quantum tunneling of magnetization discovered in Mnl2-ac with NMR is shown and the research results on the microscopic aspects of the macroscopic quantum tunneling of magnetization using the new method are shown. Also, the physical aspect of the level crossing effect which has been reported originally with NMR in molecular nanomagnet is reviewed with experiment results. The research results on the molecular nanomagnets will reveal the important information about the limit of the miniaturization of magnetic memory units and give us the basic scientific knowledge which is needed for the application for the quantum computation. Moreover, academically, many quantum mechanical theories which have not been checked the validity can be checked with experiments.

CoCr 박막에 있어서 C축 결정배향성과 미세구조 변화에 대한 Co73Cr27 씨앗층의 영향이 조사되 었다. 기록밀도가 높고 재생전압도 높은 CoCr 수직기록매체를 개발하기 위해서는 CoCr층의 두께가 엷 으면서 결정배향성이 우수하고 결정립 크기가 적고 균일한 자성기록막 제조가 필요하다. CoCr 단층막 또는 CoCr/퍼말로이 이중막 제조에서 500$\AA$정도의 Co73Cr27 층을 씨앗층으로 만들어 줌으러써 기록층인 CoCr 박막이 $0.2mu$m의 두께에서도 천이층이 거의 없고 결정배향성이 우수한 자성막을 제조할 수 있었 다. 또한 Co73Cr27 씨앗층은 비록 결정립 크기는 증가시켰지만 기록층의 에피택시 성장에 보다 바람직 한 것으로 조사되었다.
