The integrity of the turbine rotors can be assessed by the coercive force and Vickers hardness of the aged rotors at service temperature. The coercive force measurement system was constructed in order to evaluate material degradation nondestructively. The test specimen was 1Cr-1Mo-0.25V steel used widely for turbine rotor material, and then the seven kinds of specimens with different degradation levels were prepared by the isothermal heat treatment at $630^{\circ}C$. The coercive force of the test materials was measured at room temperature. Vickers hardness and coercive force decreased with the increase of degradation. The relationship between Vickers hardness and coercive force was investigated. The degradation of test material may be determined nondestructively by the relationship between Vickers hardness and coercive force.

The prediction of mechanical properties for WC-Co alloys by evaluation of coercive force and magnetic saturation were studied in relation to their microstructure. The WC-8%Co alloys were prepared using different WC particle size, carbon content and various sintering temperature by PM process. The magnetic properties such as coercive force and magnetic saturation of sintered WC-Co alloys were critically dependent upon their final composition and microstructure. Slight changes of carbon contents and small variation of WC grain size result in marked changes of magnetic properties, hardness and transverse rupture strength of sintered WC-Co alloys. It was found that the coercive force and hardness were increased by fine WC grain size of sinterd alloys, and the coercive force was proportional to hardness. With decreasing total carbon content below the stoichiometric value in WC-8%Co alloys the volume fraction of $\eta$ phase increased steadily, while the magnetic saturation and transverse rupture strength decreased. The magnetic saturation was inversely proportional to the coercive force of WC-Co alloys.

The rolled steels for welded structure applied tensile stress have been examined by means of magnetic Barkhausen noise (MBN) method and of a physical parameter obtained from a hysteresis loop. The behaviors of MBN parameters and coercive force with tensile stress were discussed in relation to microstructure changes. There is no change in MBN parameters and coercive force below yield strength. The coercive force rises rapidly with tensile stress above yield strength. On the other hand, the rms voltage and the peak in averaged rms voltage take a maximum around yield strength and then decreases. The magnetomotive force at peak in the averaged rms voltage shows a minimum around yield strength. These phenomena are attributed to the combined effects of cell texture and dislocation density. In addition, the behaviors of MBN parameters around yield strength may be reflected by the localized changes in strain field due to the formation of dislocation tangles.

Effects of density, inner-stress, and grain size on B-H hysteresis loop properties of Mg-ferrite were investigated. As the sintered bulk density increase, coercive force($H_c$) decreasand squareness ratio increase. Coercive force was very dependent on inner-stress in sintered body, so coercive force increase from 1.95[Oe] to 4.35[Oe] when inner stress present in bulk, however, the squareness ratio was almost not changed Coercive force and squareness ratio were independent on grain size of sintered body which is between 6-11[$\mu\textrm{m}$]

Magnetic and magnetostrictive properties of amorphous Sm-Fe and Sm-Fe-B thin films are systematically investigated over a wide composition range from 14.1 to 71.7 at.% Sm. The films were fabricated by rf magnetron sputtering using a composite target composed of an Fe (or Fe-B) plate and Sm chips. The amount of B added ranges from 0.3 to 0.8 at. %. The microstructure, examined by X-ray diffraction, mainly consists of an amorphous phase in the intermediate Sm content range from 20 to 45 at.%. Together with an amorphous phase, crystalline phases of Fe and Sm also exist at low and high ends of the Sm content, respectively. Well-developed in-plane anisotropy is formed over the whole compositionrange, except for the low Sm content below 15 at.% and the high Sm content above 55 at %. As the Sm content increases, the saturation magnetization decreases linearly and the coercive force tends to increase, with the exception of the low Sm content where very large magnitudes of the saturation magnetization and the coercive force are observed due to the existence of the crystalline $\alpha$-Fe phase. The coercive force is affected rather substantially by the B addition, resulting in lower values of the coercive force in the practically important Sm content range of 30 to 40 at.%. Good magnetic softness indicated by well-developed in-plane anisotropy, a square-shaped hysteresis loop and a low magnitude of the coercive force results in good magnetostrictive characteristics in both Sm-Fe-B thin films. The magnetostrictive characteristics, particularly at low magnetic fields, are further improved by the addition of B; for example, at a magnetic field of 100 Oe, the magnitude of magnetostriction is -350 ppm in a Sm-Fe thin film and it is -470 ppm in a B containing Sm-Fe thin film.

Nature of magnetic creep phenomena in low coercive force films(Ni 80%-Fe 20%) in form of narrow channels imbedded in high coercive force films is studied in this work. Aluminium is evaporated on the hot glass substrate and eched free in the shape of narrow channels by photoetoetching method. then, Permalloy(Ni 80%, Fe 20%) is deposited on these Aluminium substrate under the uniform field of 30(Oe) to introduce anisotropy. Permalloy film on Al has a high coercive force and one on the substrate devoid of Al has how coercive force. Magnetic revers domain which is introduced at the end of channel grows under the a.c field in hard axis direction, in spite of very weak d.c field in easy axis direction. This creeping is investigated as a function of external fields and channel widths. Permalloy film thickness is 500.angs.-900.angs. and channel widths are 40, 51, 65, 81, 115.mu. respectively. Creeping increases as external field increases while it decreases with channel width decrease. Creep velocity in channels depends on the a.c field along hard axis, d.c field along easy axis and channel widths and its range is 1-10cm/sec in this experiment. From study of dependence of creep velocity on channel width, it can be concluded that creep velocity is expressed in form of v=v$_{0}$ exp .alpha.(H-H$_{0}$) where .alpha. is a function of a.c field along hard axis and H is driving d.c field along easy axis, H$_{0}$ is not a coercive force of film as usuall expected but the d.c threshold field along easy axis which is a function of channel width. This characteristic is also confirmed by the study of dependence of creep velocity upon easy axis field strength. Value of .alpha. obtained is 1.3-2.3cm/sec We depending upon film charactor, hard axis field strength and frequency.uency.

CoPtCr magnetic layer was fabricated on the Cr underlayer by RF magnetron sputtering and the protective $SiO_2$ layer was deposited at room temperature. As the thickness of Cr underlayer increased, the coercive force of magnetic layer increased, then saturated slightly further increasing Cr underlayer thickness. Maximum coercive force was 860 Oe. It is thought that in-plane arrangement of magnetic phase and magnetic decoupling between the magnetic crystallites could lead to the increase of the coercive force. Post-annealing raised the coercive force exceedingly. and maximum coercive force value was 1650 Oe which was acquired from the sample annealed at 55$0^{\circ}C$ for 1hr.

Lithium ferrites are a low-cost material which have been prominent in the high frequency core industry because of their excellent temperature performance and high squareness ratio. In order to develope the lithium ferrites with the high squareness and low coercive force, the ferrites of $Li_{0.48}Bi_{0.02}Ni_{0.04}Fe_{2.46-x}O_4$ were investigated the by varying composition, temperature and frequency. Electric loss of the Li-ferrite was lowered with the substitution of $Mn_{2}O_3$. The addition of $Mn_{2}O_3$ increased the magnetic induction (Bm&Br) but decreased the coercive force (Hc) and the squareness ratio (R=Br/Bm). Also, the Br value was stable at environmental temperature variation.

Permalloy films were deposited by an RF magnetron sputtering method using several different targets which had been cold-rolled and annealed at various temperatures to give different microstructure and texture. The grain refinement occurs at high temperature annealing due to recrystallization and subsequently the initial (110) target texture transforms to the random texture. The coercive forces of thin films fabricated using targets which are not recrystallized are below 0.2 Oe in the AI pressure range of 1~5 mTorr and the lowest coercive force achieved is 0.07 Oe. The low value of coercive force, 0.25 Oe, is only obtained at the sputtering conditions of 400 W and 1 mTorr, and 300 W and 5 mTorr when recrystallized targets are used. The internal stress changes from compressive to tensile as the Ar pressure increases, the stress-free being at 5 mTorr. The changes of coercive force and permeability can be well interpreted by the differences from the composition and the internal stress.

The magnetic properties of aluminium anodized film in which Co-Fe alloy electrodeposited are investigated with regard to the alloy composition of magnetic films. The electrodeposited Co-Fe particles are confirmed to be single phase Co-Fe alloys by X-ray diffractions. The coercive force as well as the magnetic anisotropy energy can be controlled by changing the composition of the alloy. Magneticfilms having high saturation magnetization and high coercive force were obtained.
