  • Magnetic switch is a kind of saturable inductor, which utilizes nonlinearity of the magnetization curve of ferromagnetic materials. The right understanding of the saturation phenomena, magnetic properties, voltage-time product, and switching characteristics of the magnetic switch is essential in designing the magnetic pulse compressor (MPC). In this paper, the historical background of research on the MPC, fundamental physical properties of the magnetic switches, and application fields of the MPC are presented. Further, an in-depth analysis of pulse compression in series and parallel MPCs is incorporated. As practical application examples, a series MPC used for water treatments and a parallel MPC used for pulsed electric field (PEF) inactivation of bacteria are cited.

  • Spin dependent transport was investigated in lateral $Py(Ni_{81}Fe_{19})/Au/Py$ spin valve devices. Clear spin valve effect was observed in conventional four-terminal measurement geometry. Higher resistance was found in antiparallel magnetization field of two Py electrodes which is determined by anisotropy magnetoresistance (AMR) measurements. The rectangular shape of spin signal together with good agreement of switching field convinces observed spin valve signal is resulted from effective spin injection and detection. The magnetoresistance ratio decays exponentially with channel length by which spin diffusion length of Au channel was estimated to be 76 nm.

  • This paper presents a DC/DC LLC resonant converter with wide input/output voltage gain characteristics and its control method for efficiency improvement. For a wide input/output voltage gain characteristics without designing small transformer magnetization inductance, the proposed converter changes the topology into three modes of operation according to the main switch switching pattern. In each operating mode, variable LINK voltage modulation and frequency modulation were performed to control output voltage and improve operating efficiency. A prototype of a 5-kW DC/DC LLC resonant converter was built and tested to verify the validity and applicability of the proposed converter.

  • NiFe/Cu/NiFe/IrMn/NiFe/Cu/NiFe 이중 거대자기저항-스핀밸브(GMR-SV) 박막의 진공 후열처리 온도의존성을 조사하여 강자성층 자화용이축을 유도하였다. 자유층과 고정층의 자화용이축에 의존하는 이중 스핀밸브 박막의 자기저항곡선은 외부자기장 각도를 다르게 하면서 측정하였다. 열처리온도가 $105^{\circ}C$일 때, $0^{\circ}$$90^{\circ}$ 사이 임의 측정 각도에서 약 2.0 %/Oe인 자장감응도 특성을 얻었다. 이러한 결과는 면상 강자성층과 자유층을 면상에서 서로 직교한 자화방향 유도를 통하여 이중구조 GMR-SV 박막이 고감도 바이오센서로 사용할 가능성을 제시하였다.

  • 본 연구에서는 자기터널접합(MTJs; magnetic tunnel junctions)의 스위칭 자기장($H_{SW}$)을 감소시키기 위하여 자유층으로 비정질 강자성 $Co_{70.5}Fe_{4,5}Si_{15}B_{10}$ 단일(single) 및 합성형 반강자성(SAF; synthetic antiferromagnet) 층을 사용하였다. $Si/SiO_2/Ta$ 45/Ru 9.5/IrMn 10/CoFe 7/AlOx/CoFeSiB 7 or CoFeSiB (t)/Ru 1.0/CoFeSiB (7-t)/Ru 60 (in nm) MTJs의 자기저항과 스위칭 특성을 CoFe 자유층과 NiFe 자유층을 갖는 MTJs와 비교하여 조사하였다. CoFeSiB은 포화자화($M_s$)가 $560\;emu/cm^3$으로 CoFe보다 낮고, 이방성 상수(Ku)는 $2800 erg/cm^3$으로 NiFe보다 높다. CoFeSiB SAF 구조에서 CoFeSiB 사이의 Ru 두께가 1.0 nm일 때 교환결합에너지($J_{ex}$)는 $-0.003erg/cm^2$였다. 이와 같이 비교적 작은 $J_{ex}$ 때문에, CoFeSiB SAF 자유층을 갖는 MTJs의 실험 및 Landau-Lisfschitz-Gilbert(LLG)식에 의한 시뮬레이션 결과 모두에서 $H_{SW}$가 접합크기에 의존하는 경향을 보였다. CoFeSiB SAF 자유층 MTJ의 $H_{SW}$는 CoFe, NiFe 또는 CoFeSiB single을 자유층으로 하는 MTJs에 비해 훨씬 낮게 나타났다. 따라서 CoFeSiB SAF를 자유층으로 사용한 MTJ는 micrometer에서 submicrometer 크기 영역 모두에서 보지적의 감소와 민감도 증가와 같은 우수한 스위칭 특성을 갖는 것을 확인하였다.

  • 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.

  • An accurate analytical equation for the total energy in the framework of the single domain model is used to study the thermal stability of nanostructured synthetic ferrimagnets. Elliptical cells are considered that have lateral dimensions of 160 nm (long axis)$\times$80 nm (short axis) and varying values of thickness asymmetry for the two magnetic layers. The direction of the applied magnetic field, which points to the $45^{\circ}$ direction, is in the opposite direction to the thicker layer magnetization. A significant difference is observed in the applied magnetic field dependencies of the equilibrium magnetic configuration and the magnetic energy barrier when using the simplifying assumption that the self-demagnetizing field is identical in magnitude to the dipole field. At a small thickness asymmetry of 0.2 nm, for example, the magnetic energy barrier is reduced from 68 kT (T=300 K) to 6 kT at the remanent state and a progressive switching behavior changes into a critical behavior, as the simplifying assumption is used. The present results clearly demonstrate the need for an accurate analytical equation for the total energy in predicting the thermal stability of nanostructured synthetic ferrimagnets.

  • Spin dynamics has been investigated intensively in various kinds of fields. Most popular one is an initial permeability at high frequency. Also, magnetic after-effect such as thermal fluctuation of fine magnetic particles and disaccommodation in soft magnetic materials were extensively studied in the past. When we apply an external farce with the same frequency as that of the system being examined, the system absorbs the external energy and the precession enhances. It is called resonance in general. Among the various resonances, ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) has been used as a good tool to evaluate material constants such as saturation manetization or spin damping parameter by analyzing a resonance curve. In this talk first instinctive understanding of Gilbert spin damping and spin pumping will be explained. Then, experimental data for enhancement of Gilbert damping parameter (G) evaluated from FMR spectrum and spin precession measured by a time resolved pump-probe method for Permalloy thin film will be introduced. Finally, magnetization reversal observed by air-coplanar probe will be given.

  • This paper presents an improved C-Dump converter system for switched reluctance motors(SRM). The proposed C-Dump converter derived from the conventional converter for SRM. The proposed converter could overcome the limitation of the conventional C-Dump converter, and could reduce the whole cost of the SRM system since the voltage stress of the dump switch $T_d$ is reduced to $V_{dc}$ when compared with $2V_{dc}$ for the conventional C-Dump converter. The attractive features of the proposed converters are; high-efficient and low-cost, elimination of dump inductor, simple control strategy, smaller size arid light weight. The proposed converter is able to be fast magnetization by $2V_{dc}$, which is sum of the input voltage and charging voltage of the dump capacitor. Also, this topology has many advantages such as freewheeling of phase winding without complex control, reduction of current ripple, reduction of torque ripple, and reduction of switching frequency. Simulation demonstrates the good performance of the converter.

  • NdTbFeCo 합금막 및 NdTbFeCo/TbFeCo 이층막에 대한 자기광학 Kerr 회전각(${\theta}_{k}$)의 파장의존성 및 자기적 특성을 조사하였다. FeCo의 조성을 일정하게 유지하고 NdTbFeCo 합금막에서 Tb의 일부를 Nd로 치환한 결과, Nd 조성이 증가할 수록 400 nm의 파장영역에서 ${\theta}_{k}$는 증대되었으나, 보자력과 각형비가 급격히 감소하였다. NdTbFeCo 막이 단파장에서 큰 ${\theta}_{k}$를 나타냄에도 불구하고 보자력이 작아 단파장용 광자기기록 매체로서 응용가능성이 희박할 것으로 생각되어, 보자력이 큰 TbFeCo 막과 교환결합 이층막을 제작하였다. 제작된 시료중 $Nd_{16.9}Tb_{15.2}Fe_{50.4}Co_{17.5}(150\;{\AA})/Tb_{21.1}Fe_{65.0}Co_{13.9}(300\;{\AA})$ 교환결합 이층막이 6.0 KOe의 보자력과 500 nm에서 $0.32^{\circ}$${\theta}_{k}$를 나타내었다.
