A simple and low cost stylus profiler made of ferrite cores is developed. The devised profiler consists of a contact probe, a measuring transducer, a signal processing unit, and a motorized stage. The contact probe attached to 4-bar spring maintains sufficient stiffness to protect disturbances. An overlap-area type inductive position sensing system is selected as a measuring transducer, which has high sensitivity, repeatability and linearity. The transducer is composed of coil bundles and ferrite cores which have good electromagnetic characteristics in spite of low cost. The repeatability of the profiler with the proposed inductive sensing system is better than 50nm. Experimental results are shown that the proposed profiler can measure the line or 3D profile of an object with sub-micron features.

In order to obtain the fundamental data for the preparation of ferroxplana $Zn_2Y(Ba_2Zn_2Fe_{12}O_{22})$, which is useful for GHz-band communication, the optimum coprecipitation condition of $Zn(NO_3)_2-6FeCl_3$ in $NH_4OH$ solution and the formation process of the hexagonal ferrite were investigated. By the hot-petroleum-drying and calcining the coprecipitated hydroxide mixture $Zn(OH)_2 +Ba(OH)_2+ 6Fe(OH)_3$, the fine and uniform powder was obtained , whose phase composition and microstructure were studied by X.R.D. and electron microscope. In results, it was found that $Zn_2Y$, BaM and $Zn_2W$ were the representative phases in calcined specimens whose activation energies of crystal growth were about 3, 8, 2.5, $5.4{\times}10^4$ J/mole , respectively. The sintered specimens would be appreciated as useful magnetic cores for the high frequency communication.

Mn-Zn ferrite powder was obtained by wet method that was to be coprecipitated the metal ions of Fe2+, Mn2+ and Zn2+ with alkali solution. The target composition of the ferrite powder was 52 mol% Fe2O3, 24 mol% MnO, and 24 mol% ZnO, that was based on the region of high permeability. And the other ferrite powder was prepared by the dry method that was to be mixed the metal oxides as the above chemical composition. The wet method was compared with dry method for the powder properties and the electromagnetic characteristics of sintered cores. The synthesized powder by wet method was smaller particle size, narrower particle distribution, and higher purity than that of dry method. The initial permeability of sintered sample prepared by the wet method was 14000~28000, on the other side, 9000~15500 in case of the dry method.

The effect of MoO$_3$ addition on the permeability of Mn-Zn ferrites was studied. 600 ppm, 800 ppm and 1,000 ppm of MoO$_3$ were added to the main composition after calcination. Ferrite cores were sintered at 135$0^{\circ}C$ for 3hrs, followed by cooling according to the equilibrium oxygen concentration. The initial permeability was about 8,000 with heating rate 5$^{\circ}C$/min for 3hrs without MoO$_3$ addition. When 600 ppm and 800 ppm of MoO$_3$ were added, the initial permeabilities, 13,200 and 13,550 were obtained, respectively. However, the sample with 1,000 ppm MoO$_3$ showed lower permeabilities because of abnormal grain growth. At the heating rate 1$0^{\circ}C$/min, the ferrite cores with 1,000 ppm MoO$_3$ demonstrated the highest initial permeability greater than 15,000, without exaggerated grain growth.

Ni-Zn ferrite powder was synthesized from metal nitrates, Fe(N $O_3$)$_3$$.$9 $H_2$O, Ni(N $O_3$)$_2$$.$6 $H_2$O, Zn(N $O_3$)$_2$$.$6 $H_2$O by wet direct process to make high permeability material. The composition of the ferrite powder is (N $i_{0.284}$F $e_{0.053}$Z $n_{0.663}$)F $e_2$ $O_4$. Ni-Zn ferrite powder is compounded by precipitating metal nitrates with NaOH in vessel at 90$^{\circ}C$ synthetic temperature for 8 hours. Calcination temperature and sintering temperature were 700$^{\circ}C$ and 1150$^{\circ}C$-1250$^{\circ}C$ respectively for 2 hours. The same compound powder was extracted from metal oxide by wet ballmilling. We compared the properties of powder and the electromagnetic characteristics of the sintered cores obtained from the two different processes. Wet direct process produces smaller particle size with narrower distribution and higher purified ferrite which cores has high permeability and high magnetization.

In this paper, a model of a Eddy-current probe coil with a ferrite core in the presence of a half-space with a layer is developed. The half-space with a layer is accounted for by computing the appropriate Green's function by using Bessel transforms. Upon introducing equivalent Amperian currents within a core to explain effect to a impedance change in the coil due to a (ferrite) core, we derive a volume integral equation, The integral equation is transformed via the method of moments into a vector-matrix equation, which is then solved using a linear equation solver. Through the above processing, we computed impedance value in a Eddy-current probe coil due to a conductivity change of layer.

Because the on-board charger (OBC) is installed in electric vehicles (EVs), high power density is regarded as a key technology. Among components of the OBC, inductors occupy more than 30% of the total volume. Thus, it is important to reduce the volume and the weight of inductors while maintaining thermal stability. Discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) can satisfy these requirements; however, only a few studies have adopted the DCM operation for OBCs because of the large inductor current ripple. In this paper, a design process is proposed for application of the DCM operation to OBCs. In order to analyze the inductor losses accurately, a numerical formula for the inductor current ripple is deduced based on a detailed analysis. Two inductors are fabricated using several ferrite cores and powder cores taking into consideration the inductor size, inductor losses, and temperature rise. In order to verify the analysis and design process, experimental results are presented that show that the designed inductors satisfy the requirements of the OBCs.

In this paper, a magneto-inductive wave generated in a chain of LC resonators fabricated with Ni-Zn ferrite cores and chip capacitors is presented. RF signal propagates to neighbor resonator one by one as a consequence of the magnetical coupling between two resonators in the device. The magnetical coupling is due to the mutual inductances along the chain of resonators. So, the signal amplitude (${\approx}$ coupling intensity) is dependent of the mutual inductance which can be adjusted by applied magnetic field. In order to demonstrate the device, some experiments have been carried out systemically. The transmission characteristics of a magneto-inductive wave could be controlled by applied external magnetic field. The device composed of 5 resonators; the center frequencies were estimated to be 32 MHz and 38 MHz with the external magnetic flux density of 75 Oe and 222 Oe, respectively. We expect that the reported results could open a promising way to a high variety of applications in one- and two-dimensional functional devices, such as transducers, delay lines, power dividers and couplers.

The electromagnetic properties and thermal behavior of Mn-Zn ferrite cores used for the blocking filter in he Power Line Communication(PLC) application were investigated as the function of additives. The highest density and permeability of 4.98 g/㎤) and 8,221 respectively were obtained to the specimen with composition of MnO 24 mol%, ZnO 25 mol% and Fe$_2$O$_3$ 51 mol% added MnO$_3$ 400 ppm, SiO$_2$ 100 ppm and CaO 200 ppm since the uniform grains were organized and the microstructures were compacted through reduction of pores. The permeability was increased up to 13,904 as temperature of specimen increased to 11$0^{\circ}C$, however, it was decreased precipitously under 100 over 11$0^{\circ}C$. The exothermic behavior was observed in the frequency range from 1 kHz to 1 MHz that the maximum temperature of specimens became 102$^{\circ}C$ at 1 MHz. In the consequence, the Mn-Zn ferrite core developed by this research will maintain the stable electromagnetic properties since the temperature of ferrite core rose to 93$^{\circ}C$ in the range of 10 kHz to 450 kHz bandwidth qualified for PLC.
