  • A magnetic film was deposited on a slide glass substrate from aqueous solutions of $FeCl_2$ and $NaNO_2$ at 363 K. XRD analysis showed that the film was polycrystalline magnetite $(Fe_{3(1-{\sigma})}O_4)$ without impurity phase. The lattice constant was 0.8390 nm. Mossbauer spectrum of the film could be deconvoluted by the following parameters: isomer shifts for tetrahedral $(T_d)$ and octahedral $(O_h)$ sites are 0.28 and 0.68 mm/s, respectively, and corresponding magnetic hyperfine fields are 490 and 458 kOe, respectively. The estimated chemical formula of the film by the peak intensity of Mossbauer spectrum was $Fe_{2.95}O_4$. Low temperature transition of the magnetite (Verwey transition) was not detected in resistivity measurement of the film. Properties of the film were discussed with those of pressed pellet and single crystal of synthetic magnetites. On the surface of the film, magnetite particles of about 0.2 μm in diameter were identified by noncontact atomic force microscopy (NAFM) and magnetic force microscopy (MFM).

  • Large-area micropatterned array of Co/Ni bilayer anti-dots was fabricated using photolithography and wet etching process. The surface morphology as well as the surface topography was checked by scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy, whereas the magnetic properties were studied by magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE) and magnetic force microscopy (MFM). Systematic studies of the magnetic-reversal mechanism, the in-plane anisotropy and the switching field properties were carried out. To get a comprehensive knowledge about the domain configuration, we also employed OOMMF simulations. It was found from the MOKE measurements that a combined effect of configurational and the magneto-crystalline anisotropy simultaneously works in such micropatterned bilayer structures. In addition, the inclusion of holes in the uniform magnetic film drastically affected the switching field. The MFM images show well-defined domain structures which are periodic in nature. The micromagnetic simulations indicate that the magnetization reversal of such a structure proceeds by formation and annihilation of domain walls, which were equally manifested by the field-dependent MFM images. The observed changes in the magnetic properties are strongly related to both the patterning that hinders the domain-wall motion and to the magneto-anisotropic bilayered structure.

  • In this paper, we analyzed the effect of the pattern height on the readback signal characteristics of the magnetic nanopillar tops and trench bottoms. In addition, we discuss the applicability of the present method to the production of patterned magnetic media, which can be obtained by depositing magnetic thin films on the molded nanopillars with passive heating. We found that the individual magnetic island deposited on each molded nanopillars with passive heating is a single magnetic domain and confirmed that its magnetization can be successfully reversed by applying an external magnetic field.

  • 금속마스크에 의해 패턴된 교환결합 이중박막 NiO(10∼60 nm)/NiFe(10 nm)의 모서리에서 발생한 여러 종류의 자구벽(magnetic domain wall)을 MFM(magnetic_ force microscopy)로 측정하였다. 박막의 모서리 경계선이 교환결합이방성 방향과 같은 방향일 때는 직선모양의 Neel 자구벽이 측정되었으며, 경계면이 이방성방향과 수직인 경우에는 zigzag Bloch 자구벽이 발견되었다. 이러한 자구벽은 NiO(60 nm)인 경우에는 교환결합세기(H$_{ex}$ = 75 Oe)가 박막경계면에서 발생한 반자장(demagnetization field) 세기보다 크기 때문에 발생하지 않았고, 교환결합세기가 약한 NiO(30 nm, H$_{ex}$ = 21 Oe)를 갖는 이중박막에서는 발견되었다. 이들 자구벽이 외부 자기장의 변화에 따라 움직이는 자화반전과정을 측정하기위해 $\pm$300 Oe까지 자기장을 가하면서 MFM을 측정하였다.

  • A new method for the fabrication of poly-Si films is reported using by alternating magnetic flux crystallization (AMFC) of LPCVD a-Si films. In this work we have studied the crystallization of LPCVD a-Si films by alternating magnetic flux. A-Si films were 1200$\AA$-thick deposited at 48$0^{\circ}C$ at a total pressure of 0.25Torr using Si$_2$H$_{6}$/H$_2$. After this step, these a-Si films were thermally annealed by Alternating Magnetic Flux at 43$0^{\circ}C$ for 1hours. The annealed films were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman Spectra, Atomic Force Microscopy(AFM). Both alternating magnetic flux crystallization and solid phase crystallization were investigated to compare enhanced crystallization a-Si. We have found that the low temperature crystallization method at 43$0^{\circ}C$ by alternating magnetic flux.x.

  • In order to develop an ultra-thin CoCr perpendicular magnetic recording layer, we prepared CoCrTa/Ti double layer for perpendicular magnetic recording media by new facing targets sputtering system, Crystallgraphics and magnetic characteristics of CoCrTa on underlayer substrate temperature have been investigated. Crystallgraphic and magnetic characteristic of thin films were evaluated by X-ray diffractometry(XRD), vibrating sample magnetometer(VSM) and atomic force microscopy(AFM). The coercivity and anisotropy field was increased by increasing under layer substrate temperature, c-axis orientation of CoCrTa magnetic recording layer was improved 8$^{\circ}$ to 5.6$^{\circ}$when under layer substrate temperature was 250[$^{\circ}C$]. Also, through annealing effect for CoCrTa/Ti double layer, it was certain that crystallgraphics and magnetic characteristics was improved.

  • NiO thickness dependences of perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) in the $NiO/[CoFe/Pt]_5$ multilayers for exchange biasing and $[CoFe/Pt]_4/Pt/[CoFe/Pt]_4$ for interlayer exchange coupling were investigated. Perpendicular magnetization curve was obtained by out-of-plane extraordinary Hall measurement. Magnetic force microscopy (MFM) has been used for the investigation of magnetic domains on thin films. We confirmed that the interlayer exchange coupling (IEC) as a function of NiO thickness at room temperature existed with a period of two monolayers.

  • Mn doped ZnO films were prepared on Si (100) substrates using sol-gel method. The prepared films were annealed at $550^{\circ}C$ for decomposition and oxidation of the precursors. XRD analysis revealed the presence of ZnMnO hexagonal wurtzite phase along with the presence of small quantity of $ZnMn_2O_3$ secondary phase and poor crystalline nature. The 2D, 3D views of magnetic domains and domain profiles were obtained using magnetic force microscopy at room temperature. Rectangular shaped domains with an average size of 4.16 nm were observed. Magnetic moment measurement as a function of magnetic field was measured using superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometry at room temperature. The result showed the ferromagnetic hysteresis loop with a curie temperature higher than 300 K.
