The Magnetic Field

The Earth's magnetic field is affected by the presence of heavy military armored vehicles which creates an additional magnetic moment. This distortion of the magnetic field, can be detected using magnetoresistive structures. This article touches base on the possibility of using semiconductor material such as InSe for high precision measurement of the magnetic field. The properties of InSe structures with regard to electrical, magnetic and optical characteristics are discussed. The effect of sharp anisotropy of InSe layered structure which consists in the strong covalent bond within the layers and a weak van-der-Waals bond in the interlayer space is discussed with regard to the explanation of how electrical, magnetic and optical properties are altered. The peculiarity of the spatial orientation of the material with regard to the direction of the magnetic field is considered. The impact of intercalation of InSe, GaSe by various concentrations of metal impurities such as nickel and other elements of 3d iron group is studied. Bode diagrams for pure InSe system are compared with the ones of NixInSe (for various x values). Also the effect of different temperatures ranging from room temperature to liquid nitrogen on the pattern of Bode diagrams is analyzed. The extent of how the magnetic properties of semiconductor crystals of the A3B6 type are altered by the presence of the metal impurities and their concentration is analyzed. Theoretic background for this paper is based on a well-known statement that layer structures such InSe or other A3B6 structures can be viewed as quasi two-dimensional. So, layers with strong covalent bond are formed by In-Se atoms, whereas interlayer space is filled with a weak Van der Waals bond. Within this model the processes across the layers can be described as a perturbation to the ones along the layers.  This causes a strong anisotropy of the properties of these structures. Military implication of InSe structures mentioned throughout this paper is that these structures possess magnetoresistive properties and they were proved to be useful for the components of the magnetic sensors of civil and military use. This paper also touches base on how the InSe semiconductor crystals intercalated by 3d-elements can extend the functionality of magnetic sensors designed for heavy armor detection.

Abstract We developed a system and a method to characterize the magnetic field induced by circuit board and electronic component, especially integrated inductor, with magnetic sensors. The different magnetic sensors are presented and several applications using this method are discussed. Particularly, in several semiconductor applications (e.g. Mobile phone), active dies are integrated with passive components. To minimize magnetic disturbance, arbitrary margin distances are used. We present a system to characterize precisely the magnetic emission to insure that the margin is sufficient and to reduce the size of the printed circuit board.

The feasibility of a noncontact sensor is investigated. This type of sensor can potentially be used for torque measurement in a speed-variable power transmission system. Torque can be read by examining the phase difference between two induction signals from respective magnetic sensors that detect the magnetic field intensity of permanent magnets mounted on the surface of a shaft in rotation. A real-time measuring algorithm that includes filtering and calibration is adopted to measure the torque magnitude. It is shown that this new torque sensor can perform well under rotation speeds ranging from 300 rpm to 500 rpm. As an interim report rather than a complete development, this work demonstrates the feasibility of noncontact torque measurement by monitoring a magnetic field. The result shows an error of less than 2% within the full test range, which is a sufficient competitive performance for commercial sensors. The price is very low compared to competitors in the marketplace, and the device does not require special handling of the shaft of the surface.

For nanocrystalline alloy Fe73.5Cu1Nb3Si13.5B9 thermomechanical treatment was carried out simultaneously with nanocrystallizing annealing (1) or after it (2). It was shown that a change in magnetic properties for the case 1 is essentially greater than for the case 2. Complex effect of thermomagnetic and thermomechanical treatments on magnetic properties was studied in the above-mentioned nanocrystalline alloy as well as in the amorphous alloy Fe5Co70.6Si15B9.4., During the annealings both field and stress were aligned with the long side of the specimens. It was shown that the magnetic field, AC or DC, decreases an effect of loading. Moreover, the magnetic field, AC or DC, applied after stress-annealing can destroy the magnetic anisotropy already induced under load.

Wide expansion of smartphones triggered a rapid demand for precise localization that can meet the requirements of location-based services. Although the global positioning system is widely used for outdoor positioning, it cannot provide the same accuracy for the indoor. As a result, many alternative indoor positioning technologies like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), and geomagnetic field localization have been investigated during the last few years. Today smartphones possess a rich variety of embedded sensors like accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer that can facilitate estimating the current location of the user. Traditional geomagnetic field-based fingerprint localization, although it shows promising results, it is limited by the fact that various smartphones have embedded magnetic sensors from different manufacturers and the magnetic field strength that is measured from these smartphones vary significantly. Consequently, the localization performance from various smartphones is different even when the same localization approach is used. So devising an approach that can provide similar performance with various smartphones is a big challenge. Contrary to previous works that build the fingerprint database from the geomagnetic field data of a single smartphone, this study proposes using the geomagnetic field data collected from multiple smartphones to make the geomagnetic field pattern (MP) database. Many experiments are carried out to analyze the performance of the proposed approach with various smartphones. Additionally, a lightweight threshold technique is proposed that can detect user motion using the acceleration data. Results demonstrate that the localization performance for four different smartphones is almost identical when tested with the database made using the magnetic field data from multiple smartphones than that of which considers the magnetic field data from only one smartphone. Moreover, the performance comparison with previous research indicates that the overall performance of smartphones is improved.

The magnetic field of the Sun is mainly concentrated into intense magnetic flux tubes having field strengths of the order of 1 kG. In this paper an overview is given of the thermal and magnetic properties of these flux tubes, which are known to exhibit a large range in size, from the smallest magnetic elements to sunspots. Differences and similarities between the largest and smallest features are stressed. Some thoughts are also presented on how the properties of magnetic flux tubes are expected to scale from the solar case to that of solar-like stars. For example, it is pointed out that on giants and supergiants turbulent pressure may dominate over gas pressure as the main confining agent of the magnetic field. Arguments are also presented in favour of a highly complex magnetic geometry on very active stars. Thus the very large starspots seen in Doppler images probably are conglomerates of smaller (but possibly still sizable) spots.

Film Nanocomposites

A series of thin-film nanocomposites based on ferromagnetic metal Co and insulator SiO were prepared using an electron-beam method. The magnetoresistive and magnetic properties of these structures deposited at room temperature and then annealed to 700 K were investigated. The results showed that at the Co concentration 40 [Formula: see text]x [Formula: see text] 60 at.%, thin-film nanocomposites exhibit magnetoresistance (MR) that is conditional on spin-dependent tunnelling of electrons. This range of concentrations corresponds to the prepercolation area according to the magnetic investigations. For samples with x [Formula: see text] 70 at.%, the anisotropic character of MR peculiar to the homogeneous ferromagnetic materials appears. According to the magnetic properties study, this range of concentrations corresponds to the area after transition through the percolation threshold. The annealing process in temperature range from 300 K to 700 K in the magnetic field slightly influenced the magnetoresistive properties of the thin-film nanocomposites based on Co and SiO for all range of concentrations.

Purpose – This study aims to ameliorate the strength and uniformity of the magnetic field in the air-gap of quartz flexible accelerometers. Quartz flexible accelerometers (QFAs), a type of magneto-electric inertial sensors, have wide applications in inertial navigation systems, and their precision, linearity and stability performance are largely determined by the magnetic field in operation air-gap. To enhance the strength and uniformity of the magnetic field in the air-gap, a magnetic hat structure has been proposed to replace the traditional magnetic pole piece which tends to produce stratiform magnetic field distribution. Design/methodology/approach – Three-dimensional analysis in ANSYS workbench helps to exhibit magnetic field distribution for the structures with a pole piece and a magnetic hat, and under the hypothesis of cylindrical symmetry, two-dimensional finite element optimization by ANSYS APDL gives an optimal set of dimensions of the magnetic hat. Findings – Three structures of the QFA with a pole piece, a non-optimized magnetic hat and an optimized magnetic hat are compared by the simulation in ANSYS Maxwell and experiments measuring the electromagnetic rebalance force. The results show that the optimized hat can supply stronger and more uniform magnetic field, which is reflected by larger and more linear rebalance force. Originality/value – To the authors ' knowledge, the magnetic hat and its dimension optimization have rarely been reported, and they can find significant applications in designing QFAs or other similar magnetic sensors.

AbstractThe magnetization and magnetic susceptibility of Bridgman-grown Pb1-xGdxTe have been measured over a temperature range from 2 to 300 K and in magnetic fields from 0.01 to 50 κOe. The x-values of the crystals ranged from 0.03 to 0.07. The magnetic susceptibility followed a Curie-Weiss behavior, χ = C/(T + θ), with positive θ implying an antiferromagnetic exchange interaction between Gd ions. The magnetic field dependence of the magnetization was fitted to a modified Brillouin function with parameter values that agreed fairly well with those from Curie-Weiss plots. The magnitude of θ was comparable to the value found for Pb1-xMnxTe for similar x values; but since the ion spin is bigger for Gd this suggests that the exchange interaction in Gd-doped PbTe is roughly half the value in Mn-doped PbTe.
