The amorphous Co-based alloy Co66Fe4Ni1B15Si14 (Metglas 2714A) is a suitable magnetic core material for high frequency operation. Appreciable reduction of the coercive force can be achieved by proper heat treatment. In this study, samples annealed at wide temperature range were analyzed using differential scanning calorimetry, high frequency B-H loop tester, X-ray diffractometer and resistivity meter. The results show that coercive force at 10 kHz decreases with in-creasing annealing temperature up to 773 K, but dramatically increases above this temperature. The squareness shows that the magnetic anisotropy on longitudinal direction of the as-cast state remains up to 773 K. Above this temperature, it decreases down to 0.5 that represents random distribution of magnetic domains. The crystallization abruptly occurs between 781 K and 783 K.

The commercial cermet cutting tools consist of multi-carbide and a binder metal of iron group, such as cobalt and nickel which are ferromagnetic. In this paper, a new approach to evaluate the mechanical properties of TiCN based cermet by magnetic properties were studied in relation to binder content and sintering conditions. The experimental cermet was prepared using commercial composition with the other binder contents by PM process. It was found that the magnetic properties of the sintered cermets remarkably depended on the microstructure and the total carbon content. The magnetic saturation was proportional to increment of coercive force. At high carbon content in sintered cermet, the magnetic saturation was increased by decreasing the concentration of solutes such as W, Mo, Ti in Co-Ni binder. As the coercive force increases, the hardness usually increases. The strength and toughness of the cermet also increased with increasing the magnetic saturation. The measurement of magnetic properties made it possible to evaluate the mechanical properties in the cermet cutting tools.

This study investigated the magnetic properties and frequency dispersion of complex permeability of Ni-Zn-Co ferrites used for magnetic shielding in near field communication (NFC) system. The sintered specimens of $(Ni_{0.7}Zn_{0.3})_{1-x}Co_xFe_2O_4$ composition were prepared by the conventional ceramic processing. The coercive force and saturation magnetization were measured by vibrating sample magnetometer. The complex permeability was measured by RF impedance analyzer in the range of 1 MHz~1.8 GHz. The coercive force increased and saturation magnetization decreased with increasing the Co substitution. The real and imaginary parts of complex permeability decreased and the resonance frequency increased with Co substitution, which was attributed to the increase in crystal anisotropy field and reduction in saturation magnetization. The effect of Co substitution could be found in reducing the magnetic loss to nearly zero at the operating frequency of NFC (13.56 MHz).

HDDR (hydrogenation, disproportionation, desorption, recombination) and mechanical milling processes have been applied to the $SmCo_{5}$ alloy in an attempt to produce a highly coercive powder. The $SmCo_{5}$ alloy had very high structural stability under the hydrogen atmosphere and the 1:5 phase was only partially disproportionated under up to 10 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ hydrogen gas. The partially disproportionated material was recombined not into 1:5 phase after the HDDR, but rather into multi-phase mixture consisting of 1:5, 2:17, 2:7 and 1:7 phases. The $SmCo_{5}$ alloy HDDR-treated with hydrogen up to 10 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ had poor coercivity. For a useful HDDR to prepare a high coercivity $SmCo_{5}$ alloy powder, much higher hydrogen pressure well exceeding 10 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ would be required. The $SmCo_{5}$ alloy lump was amorphized by an intensive mechanical milling, and it was crystallised ultra-finely by a subsequent optimum annealing. The optimally annealed material had very high coercivity, and it was found that the mechanical milling followed by an annealing was an effective way of producing highly coercive $SmCo_{5}$ alloy powder.

Co-ferrite ($CoO-Fe_{2}O_{3}$) thin films have been prepared by two ways of low temperature solid reaction including oxidation process, being based on $Co-layer/{\alpha}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ films and $Co-layer/Fe_{3}O_{4}$ films. Magnetic properties of both Co-ferrite films have been measured and compared. The samples from $Co-layer/Fe_{3}O_{4}$ films have a large coercive force in the direction perpendicular and have a great poler kerr rotation angle at wavelength 700 nm than ones from $Co-layer/{\alpha}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ films. The typical magnetic properties are as follows; saturation magnetization $4{\pi}Ms$, 2.9 kG; remnant magnetization $4{\pi}Mr$, 2.0 kG; coercive force Hc, 4.0 kOe; kerr rotation angle ${\PHI}k$, 0.39 deg($\lambda\;=\;700\;nm$); and initial magnetization energy E, $3.3\;{\times}\;10^6\;erg/\textrm{m}^3$, respectively.

Magnetic properties of CoPt nanoparticles (average size = 2.1 nm) encapsulated in synthesized protein shell have been investigated with SQUID (Superconducting Quantum Interference Device) magnetometer and analyzed by the recently developed non-equilibrium magnetization calculation by our group [T. H. Lee et al., Phys. Rev. B 90, 184411 (2014)]. Field dependence of magnetization measured at 2 K was successfully analyzed with modified Langevin function. In addition, small hysteresis loops having the coercive field of 890 Oe were observed at 2 K. Temperature dependence of magnetization has been measured with zero field cooled (ZFC) and field cooled (FC) protocol with slightly modified sequence in accordance with non-equilibrium magnetization calculation. The analysis on the M vs. T data revealed that the anisotropy energy barrier distribution is found to be very different from the log-normal distribution found in a size distribution. Zero temperature coercive field and Bloch coefficient have also been extracted from the analysis and the validity of those values is checked.

In order to fabricate magnetoresistive sensor, Fe-Ni and Co-Ni alleys were evaporated on the slide glass and the silicon wafers. Saturation magnetic induction($B_{s}$), coercive field strength($H_{c}$) and magnetoresistance were measured for fabricated samples. The evaporated Fe-Ni thin films show that the saturation magnetic induction was 0.65 T, and coercive field strength was 0.379 A/cm, and this value was changed to 0.370 A/cm(//), 0.390 A/cm(${\bot}$), respectively after magnetic annealing. For the measurement of coercive field strength, magnetizing frequency of 1 kHz was used. For the fabricated sensor element, the change of magnetoresistance (${\Delta}R/R$) was excessively unstable due to oxidation in the process of fabrication. The evaporated Co-Ni alloy thin films show that saturation magnetic induction was 0.66 T, and coercive field strengthes were 5.895 A/cm(//), 5.898 A/cm(${\bot}$), respectively, after magnetic annelaing. The change of magnetoresistance(${\Delta}R/R$) was $3.6{\sim}3.7%$ of which value was excessively stable to room temperature. Fe-Ni thin film could have many problems due to large affinity in the process of fabrication of magnetoresistance sensor, but Co-Ni thin film could be a suitable material for fabrication of magnetoresistance sensor, because of its small affinity and definite magnetoresistance effects.

Neodymium-iron-boron (Nd-Fe-B) sintered magnets have excellent magnetic properties such as the remanence, coercive force, and the maximum energy product compared to other hard magnetic materials. The coercive force of Nd-Fe-B sintered magnets is improved by the addition of heavy rare earth elements such as dysprosium and terbium instead of neodymium. Then, the magnetocrystalline anisotropy of Nd-Fe-B sintered magnets increases. However, additional elements have increased the production cost of Nd-Fe-B sintered magnets. Hence, a study on the control of the microstructure of Nd-Fe-B magnets is being conducted. As the coercive force of magnets improves, the grain size of the $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ grain is close to 300 nm because they are nucleation-type magnets. In this study, fine particles of Nd-Fe-B are prepared with various grinding energies in the pulverization process used for preparing sintered magnets, and the microstructure and magnetic properties of the magnets are investigated.

Magnetization behavior of ultra thin $Fe_xCo_{1-x}$ alloy (where x varies from 0 to 100) has been investigated as functions of composition on Cr (100) substrate by using in situ surface magneto optical Kerr effect (SMOKE). It's always show in plane uniaxial magnetic anisotropy at room temperature (RT) & Low temperature (LT). It is observed that composition dependent coercive force maximum at about 30 at % Co and 70 at % Co atomic ratio and minimum near equiatomic site. The relative magnetic moments as composition variation also show magnetization collapse near equiatomic site. The magnetization behaviors of Fe-Co alloy on Cr (100) due to composition varies are supported the order-disordering as well as structural stability bcc (ferromagnetic)/fcc (anti-ferromagnetic) phase stability magnetism.
