Variation of magnetic properties through Cr substitution for Co in inverse-spinel $CoFe_2O_4$ has been investigated by vibrating-sample magnetometry (VSM) and conversion electron $M\ddot{o}ssbauer$ spectroscopy (CEMS). $Cr_{x}Co_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$ samples were prepared as thin films by a sol-gel method. The lattice constant of the $Cr_{x}Co_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$ samples was found to remain unchanged, explainable in terms of a reduction of tetrahedral $Fe^{3+}$ ion to $Fe^{2+}$ due to substitution of $Cr^{3+}$ ion into octahedral $Co^{2+}$ site. The existence of the tetrahedral $Fe^{2+}$ ions in $Cr_{x}Co_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$ was confirmed by CEMS analysis. Room-temperature magnetic hysteresis curves for the $Cr_{x}Co_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$ films measured by VSM revealed that the saturation magnetization $M_s$ increases by Cr doping. The $M_s$ is maximized when x = 0.1 and decreases for higher x but is still bigger than that of $CoFe_2O_4$. The increase of $M_s$ can be explained partly by the reduction of the tetrahedral $Fe^{3+}$ ion to $Fe^{2+}$.

Nanocrystalline Fe-Sm-O thin films were prepared by RF magnetron reactive sputtering method in $Ar+O_2$mixed atmosphere with the $O_2$content of 5%. The compositions of the thin films were changed by changing the number of $Sm_2O_3$ chips. The best soft magnetic properties of the thin film with the composition of $Fe_{83.4}Sm_{3.4}O_{13.2}$ were saturation flux density of 18 kG, coercivity of 0.82 Oe and effective permeability about 2,600 at 0.5~100 MHz, respectively. The electrical resistivity of Fe-Sm-O thin films was increased with increasing the amount of Sm and O elements which combined each other, the electrical resistivity of$Fe_{83.4}Sm_{3.4}O_{13.2}$ thin film was $130{\mu}{\Omega}cm$. In case of the small amount of Sm and O elements, the microstructures of Fe-Sm-O thin films showed a precipitated phase of $Sm_2O_3$ on the ${\alpha}-Fe$ phase. With the increase of the amount of Sm and O elements, the microstructures of the Fe- Sm-O thin films were changed into a mixed structure of ${\alpha}-Fe$ crystal-phase and Sm-oxide amorphous phase. The Fe-Sm-O thin films with Fe content in the range of 72~94 at% exhibited the quality factor (Q = $\mu$′/$\mu$") of 7~75 up to 50 MHz.

MHz영역에서 사용 가능한 Fe계 연자성 재료를 초미세 결정립으로 제조하기 위해 $Fe_{93}Zr_{3}B_4$ 박막을 기본조성으로 하여 Fe와 비고용이며 약반자성인 Ag 원소를 0, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10 at.% 첨가시킨 $Fe_{93-x}Zr_{3}B_{4}Ag_{x}$ 박막을 DC 마그네트론 스퍼터링법으로 제조하였다. 그리고, 300-600$^{\circ}C$ 온도 범위에서 1시간동안 열처리한 후 강제공냉법으로 냉각한 후 XRD를 이용하여 열처리 온도 및 Ag 첨가량에 따른 결정상 동정을 조사하였다. Ag가 첨가되지 않은 $Fe_{93}Zr_{3}B_4$ 박막의 경우 $\alpha$-Fe의 (110) 피크만 관찰되었다. Ag가 첨가된 경우에는, Ag의 양이 증가함에 따라 $\alpha$-Fe 결정상의 형성이 억제되고, 비정질형태의 broad한 ${\alpha}-Fe_{(110)}$ 피크와 Ag피크가 관찰되었다. Ag가 첨가된 As-deposited 시편을 열처리 할 경우 박막의 비정질화로 주 peak인 $\alpha$-Fe 피크의 강도가 현저히 낮아지고 상대적으로 Ag peak가 두드러졌다. Ag의 양이 3a/o인 경우는 열처리온도 400$^{\circ}C$이상에서 박막의 결정화로 $\alpha$-Fe Peak가 나타나고 상대적으로 Ag 구성원소의 피크의 강도는 현저하게 낮아졌다 또한. Ag의 양 증가할수록 As-deposited 박막 내에 Ag 구성원소외 피크의 강도는 증가하여 $\alpha$-Fe와 Ag가 서로 비고용 상태로 서로 혼재되어 있었다.

The Fe-base amorphous ribbons with 15mm width and about 20x10S0-6Tm thickness, (FeS179-xTCrS1xT)BS116TSiS15T and (FeS181-xTMnS1xT) BS112TSiS17T (x:0-6), were prepared melt spinner. The thickness of the ribbons followed by PFC (Planar Flow Casting). The initial permeability and total core losses were measured as a function of additive elements (Cr, Mn) and annealing conditions in high frequency for the purpose of using these materials as a core of magnetic amplifier and switched mode power supplies. The initial permeabilities were enhanced and core losses were decreased by non-magnetic field annealing in proper conditions. The lowest core loss in 0.2T/10kHz was measured at 3% Cr addition amorphous ribbon, and the loss was 5.6W/kg. The permeability of the ribbon at 10kHz was about 9000.

In order to elucidate thermal stability of Fe-$Fe_2Ti$ eutectic structure, the initial several structures have been investigated in the changes of coarsening and spheroidization during prolonged annealing under the eutectic temperature. The results are as follows: 1) The rate constant of coarsening and spheroidization was formulated as $S^{-n}-S_0^{-n}=k{\cdot}t$, where S is the total area of the interface between ${\alpha}$ and C($Fe_2Ti$) per unit volume, $S_0$ is initial value and k is the rate constant. 2) The coarsening and spheroidization mechanism was described by Ostwald ripening and controlled by diffusion of Ti-atom in ${\alpha}$-phase. 3) The spheroidization rate constant in eutectic lamellar structures was depended upon annealing temperature and showed the Arrhenius relation. The activation energy for spheroidization of lamellar structure was 365 kJ/mole.

Perpendicular magnetization curves and crystal textures of $[Pd(0.8 nm)/Co(0.8 nm)]_5/FeMn$ multilayers having an exchange-biased perpendicular magnetic anisotropy as a function of FeMn thickness and annealing temperature were measured. As FeMn thickness increases from 0 to 21 nm, the perpendicular exchange biasing field ($H_{ex}$) obtained the maximum value of 130 Oe at FeMn thickness 12 nm. As the annealing temperature increases to $240^{\circ}C$, the H_ex increased from 115 Oe to 190 Oe and the exchange-biased perpendicular magnetic anisotropy disappeared at $330^{\circ}C$.

조성 변조된 비정질 Fe80Zr20박막의 자기적 성질과 기계적 성질 변화를 전해적 방법에 의한 수소 취입 시간의 함수로 측정하여, 그 상관 관계를 연구하였다. 박막의 Young's modulus는 진동 cantilever 시료의 공명 주파수를 , 10-4nm의 측정 감도를 지닌 laser heterodyne interferometer를 써서 측정하였다. 농도 2N의 인산 전해액에 침적된 시료에 26.3mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$의 전류를 흘려 이루어진 수소취입에 의해, Fe80Zr20 박막의 포화자화 정도는 8배, Young's modulus는 18배 가량 증가하였다. Fe80Zr20박막의 자기적 성질의 변화가 원자적 scale의 미세 구조 변화에 의한 것이라는 간접적인 증거를 제공하였으며, cantilever 시료의 공명주파수 측정을 통하여 박막재료의 기계적 성질을 연구할 수 있는 새로운 가능성을 제시하였다.

The effect of hot-dip aluminizing on the corrosion of the low carbon steel was studied at $650-850^{\circ}C$ for 20-50 h in $N_2/0.5%\;H_2S$ gas. The aluminized steel consisted primarily of the Al topcoat and the underlying Al-Fe alloy layer. Aluminizing drastically improved the corrosion resistance by forming the ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ surface scale. Without aluminizing, the steel formed nonadherent, fragile, thick scales, which consisted of FeS as the major phase and iron oxides such as FeO, $Fe_3O_4$ and $Fe_2O_3$ as minor ones.

Local magnetization reversal in the exchange-biased NiFe/FeMn and $[Pd/Co]_5/FeMn$ multilayers with in-plane and out-of-plane magnetic anisotropy was achieved by using laser annealing. The local annealed NiFe/FeMn film under the opposite magnetic field shows a magnetoresistance (MR) curve having two symmetric peaks at the positive and negative exchange biasing field (${\pm}H_{ex}$). The intensity of the nucleated MR peak rises as the exposed area extends during the laser annealing process, and the peak disappears under the reverse magnetic field. In the case of [Pd/Co]/FeMn films, the local magnetization reversal increased gradually as the laser power increases. The locally reversed magnetization was restored under the opposite magnetic field.

We have carried out the study of magnetocaloric effect for as-quenched and annealed $Fe_{91-x}Y_xZr_9$ alloys. Samples were prepared by arc melting the high-purity elemental constituents under argon gas atmosphere and by single roller melt spinning. These alloys were annealed one hour at 773 K in vacuum chamber. The magnetization behaviours of the samples were measured by vibrating sample magnetometer. The Curie temperature increases with increasing Y concentration (x=0 to 8). Temperature dependence of the entropy variation ${\Delta}S_M$ was found to appear in the vicinity of the Curie temperature. The results show that annealed $Fe_{86}Y_5Zr_9$ and $Fe_{83}Y_8Zr_9$ alloys a bigger magnetocaloric effect than that those in as-quenched alloys. The value is 1.23 J/kg K for annealed $Fe_{86}Y_5Zr_9$ alloy and 0.89 J/kg K for as-quenched alloy, respectively. In addition, the values of ${\Delta}S_M$ for $Fe_{83}Y_8Zr_9$ alloy is 0.72 J/Kg K for as-quenched and 1.09 J/Kg K for annealed alloy, respectively.
