A high sensitive magnetometer using piezoelectric torque sensor was built. The torque produced on the magnetizde sample with small oscillating magnetic field was measured by a piezoelectric sensor. The torque is proportional to the magnetization of the sample. Errors of the measurement for saturation magnetization remain less than 5 % compared to existing standard values.

Magnetization is very important in the ferro-magnetic physics and provides useful informations in the application field of magnetic devices. Generally, the only first acquired domain pattern is not helpful to recognize domain pattern. Many images are needed to visualize domain pattern through image processing. These images were obtained a 8-bit digital camera. The operation was the subtraction of pixel values of multi domain imanges from the images with 255 of pixel value, which was obtained in the saturated state of magnetic materials. The magnetic domain images was visualized gradually with increasing the number of subtracion operation. LABVIEW was used as an image processing tool and the optic microscope with a polarizer was used in this experiment.

The reduction of saturation magnetization in the Mg-Mn microwave ferrites was achieved by substituting the non-magnetic A1 ion for Fe ion. It is necessary for extending the operation frequencies that there is no change in other properties of the microwave ferrites. The electrical and magnetic properties are characterized where the composition of the ferrites studied was given by the general formula $(MgO)_{1.0}(MnO)_{0.1}(Al_xFe_{1.9-x}O_{2.85}$ with x ranging from 0.1 to 0.4. The saturation magnetization and the ferromagnetic resonance linewidth was decreased by the substituting amount of $Al_2O_3$. The value of coercive field was low enough over the composition of x=O.2 and the high squareness ratio was obtained all over the amount of substitution. It is feasible to select the proper application area with the combination of various properties ; that is, low coercive field, high squareness ratio, optimum saturation magnetization and ferromagnetic resonance linewidth.

희토류계 영구자석은 높은 보자력과 잔류 자화을 가지고 있어 자기기록저장매체, MEMS(엑츄에이터), 센서 등의 응용 분야에 적용시키기 위해 다양한 연구들이 진행되고 있다. 하지만 희토류계 원소의 수급 및 가격의 문제점으로 친환경자석으로의 전환 및 희토류나 중희토류를 사용하지 않는 비희토류계 영구자석을 개발하는 연구에 대한 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 이 중 Fe-N 계 자성 물질인 $Fe_{16}N_2$는 포화 자화 값이 현재까지의 자성물질 중 가장 높은 값(240emu/g)을 나타내며 상대적으로 높은 결정자기이방성 상수를 가지고 있어 비희토류계 영구자석 물질 중 하나로 주목받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 $Fe_{16}N_2$ 박막을 얻기 위해 DC Magnetron Sputtering 방법을 이용하여 Si wafer 위에 박막을 증착하고 증착공정 조건 중 질소 유량 및 Sputtering Power를 변수로 따른 박막의 성장, 조직변화, 자성 특성을 관찰을 통해 최적의 공정 조건을 찾고자 하였다. $N_2$ 가스 유량 변화에 따른 박막의 성장 속도는 거의 변화가 없었으며 $N_2$ 가스 유량의 증가에 따라 박막 내 Fe의 함유량은 감소하였다. 모든 공정 조건에서 $Fe_3N$, $Fe_4N$, $Fe_{16}N_2$ 상들이 섞여 성장하였으며 XRD를 통한 상분석과 더불어 VSM을 통한 자성 특성을 분석해본 결과 $Fe_{16}N_2$의 분율이 가장 높게 성장된 공정 조건은 Power는 200W, $N_2$ 가스 유량은 20sccm이었으며 이 조건에서 2.45T의 포화 자화 값과 1.4T의 잔류 자화 값을 얻을 수 있었다.

The spin wave absorption spectra are obtained by a simultaneous solution of the Maxwell equation and the Gilbert equation considering the boundary condition of electromagnetic wave and magnetization in the film surfaces. The physical parameters that influence the absorption energy are thickness, exchange stiffness constant, surface magnetic anisotropy, magnetization. damping factor, electric resistivity of the thin film. We investigated how these parameters affect the resonance field, the linewidth and the intensity of the spin wave spectrum.

Magnetization Transfer (MT) imaging generates contrast dependent on the phenomenon of magnetization exchange between free water proton and restricted proton in macromolecules. In biological materials in knee, MT or cross-relaxation is commonly modeled using two spin pools identified by their different T2 relaxation times. Two models for cross-relaxation emphasize the role of proton chemical exchange between protons of water and exchangeable protons on macromolecules, as well as through dipole-dipole interaction between the water and macromolecule protons. The most essential tool in medical image manipulation is the ability to adjust the contrast and intensity. Thus, it is desirable to adjust the contrast and intensity of an image interactively in the real time. The proton density (PD) and T2-weighted SE MR images allow the depiction of knee structures and can demonstrate defects and gross morphologic changes. The PD- and T2-weighted images also show the cartilage internal pathology due to the more intermediate signal of the knee joint in these sequences. Suppression of fat extends the dynamic range of tissue contrast, removes chemical shift artifacts, and decreases motion-related ghost artifacts. Like fat saturation, phase sensitive methods are also based on the difference in precession frequencies of water and fat. In this study, phase sensitive methods look at the phase difference that is accumulated in time as a result of Larmor frequency differences rather than using this difference directly. Although how MT work was given with clinical evidence that leads to quantitative model for MT in tissues, the mathematical formalism used to describe the MT effect applies to explaining to evaluate knee disorder, such as anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear and meniscal tear. Calculation of the effect of the effect of the MT saturation is given in the magnetization transfer ratio (MTR) which is a quantitative measure of the relative decrease in signal intensity due to the MT pulse.

In this study, crystal structures and magnetic properties of as-ast, annealed and rapidly solidified Mn-A1-M( M=Cu, Fe) alloys have been investigated. In $Mn_{0.56}Al_{0.44}$ alloys, the largest fraction of $\tau$ phase and values of magnetic properties was obtained in Mnl, i6Alo or alloy. And this alloy was used as the basic composition. In $Mn_{0.56-X}M_{X}Al_{0.44}$ alloys, when annealed, $\tau$- and $\beta$-Mn phase appeared at x< 0.08, $\tau$- and $\kappa$ phase at 0.10 $\leq x \leq$ 0.12 and $\kappa$- phase only at 0.15 $\leq x \leq$0.20 . When rapidly solidified, specimens showed similar phases as when annealed except that $\varepsilon$ phase appeared at x=0.04. In Mnu FexAlo 44 alloys, asyast specimens showed $\tau$-, $\beta$-Mn and $\gamma_2$- phase at x<0.08 and K and $\beta$-Mn phase at x>0.10. When rapidly solidified, Mn-Fe-Al specimens showed $\varepsilon$-, $\gamma_2$- and small amount of $\tau$- and $\kappa$ phase at x<0.08 and $\kappa$- phase only at 0.$\leq x \leq$0.20. All the alloys investigated were ferromagnetic. The Curie temperature of annealed specimens and rapidly solidified of Mno 5sAlu 44 alloy were -650K and -644K. Spontaneous magnetization( UII of annealed and rapidly solidified specimens were 40-45 (emu/g) and 50-52(emu/g), respectively. Remanent (M,) to saturation magnetization( Ms) ratio was -0.7. M, of rapidly solidified specimen was about 48(emu/g). Magnetic properties of $Mn_{0.56}Al_{0.44}$ alloys were found to be determined by the relative fraction of ferromagnetic r- and K- phase. When M= Cu and x=0.15, maximum as($\sigma_{0.0}$) was obtained by about 64.3 emu/g), and when M=Fe and x=0.15, 66.4( emu/g). The Curie temperature decreased as x increased.

We have developed new techniques to measure the magnetization and coercivity of a uniaxial magnetic material using a torque magnetometer. The magnetization could be measured from the slope of the linear region in a plot of the torque ${\tau}/H$ versus the applied field H, when the direction of the applied field was normal to the uniaxial orientation. While, the coercivity could be obtained by taking the value of applied field where the torque was zero, when the direction of the applied field was $(180+{\delta})$ degrees from the uniaxial orientation. The techniques were applied to determine the magnetizations and coercivities of several Co /Pd multilayer thin films and the results were confirmed to be similar within a 2 % difference to those obtained by a vibrating sample magnetometer.

In order to elucidate the patterns of natural oils and fats assimilation by microorganisms, lipases properties of yeast and bacterium strain, Torulopsis candia Y-128 and Acinetobacter calcoaceticus KB-2, which could assimilate palm oil efficiently, were investigated. T candida Y-128 attached palm oil droplets directly, and assimilated unsaturated fatty acid more easily than saturated acids liberated by the action of its lipase. Lipase of A. calcoaceticus KB-2 was extracellular and appeared quickly from the beginning of log phase of growth, whereas lipase of f candida Y-128 appealed intracellular. The lipases of two strains seem to be only enough to utilize the lipid materials for their own growth, without accumulation of lipases in the culture broth. Lipases of the strains have 1 (3-)-positional specificities on triglycerides. The patterns of palm oil assimilation showed that two strains attached droplets of lipid materials directly and split off fatty acids at 1 (3-)-position of triglycerides first, and assimilated the reaction products via fatty acids metabolic pathway.

Ultrafine $CoFe_{1.9}Bi_{0.1}O_4$ particles were fabricated by using a sol-gel method and their magnetic and structural properties were investigated with an x-ray diffractometer (XRD), a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and a M$\"{o}$ssbauer spectrometer. The result of x-ray diffraction and M$\"{o}$ssbauer spectroscopy showed that the powders fired at and above 523 K had only cubic spinel structures. M$\"{o}$ssbauer spectra measurements showed that the powders annealed at 523,723 and 823 K possessed ferrimagnetic nature and paramagnetic nature due to superparamagnetism, simultaneously at room temperature and the powders annealed at and above 923 K behaved ferrimagnetically. In the case of the powder annealed at 923 K, the lattice constant was $a_0=8.398$\pm$0.005{\AA}$ and the hyperfine fields were $H_{hf}(A)=479kOe,\; H_{hf}(B)=502kOe$. The isomer shifts indicate that the iron ions are ferric at tetrahedral[A] and octahedral sites [B], respectively. The magnetization as a function of annealing temperature increased as increasing annealing temperature. The largest coercivity values were $H_C=1368\;Oe$ AT 923 K annealing temperature. In the case of the powder annealed at 1123 K, the magnetization value was $M_S=75\;emu/g$ and this value was similler to that of $CoFe_2O_4$.Fe_2O_4$.
