This paper proposes a novel kind of direct-current and alternate-decay-current hybrid integrative magnetization and demagnetization power supplies applied to transformer dc bias treatment based on a nanocomposite magnetic material. First, according to the single-phase transformer structure, one dc bias magnetic compensation mechanism was provided. The dc bias flux in the transformer main core could be eliminated directionally by utilizing the material remanence. Second, for the rapid response characteristic of the magnetic material to an external magnetic field, one positive and negative dc magnetization superimposed decaying ac demagnetization hybrid integrative power supplies based on single-phase rectifier circuit and inverter circuit was designed. In order to accurately control the magnetic field strength by which a good de/-magnetization effect could be achieved, this paper adopts the double-loop control technology of the magnetic field strength and magnetizing current for the nanocomposite magnetic state adjustment. Finally, two 10 kVA transformers and the experiment module of the hybrid integrative power supplies were manufactured and built. Experimental results showed that the integrated power supplies have good de/-magnetization effect and practicability, proving the validity and feasibility of the proposed scheme.

Very sensitive magnetic instruments on the JUICE spacecraft require an extremely low magnetic field emission of the various subsystems. The JUICE solar array includes a photovoltaic assembly and various mechanisms with a magnetic signature. The design of the photovoltaic assembly has been optimised not only with respect to magnetic moment, but also with respect to the emitted magnetic field, by applying the so-called back-wiring technique, alternating string polarity etc. The remanent magnetic field of the mechanisms (hinges, eddy-current damper, hold-down & release mechanism) was tested including a process for demagnetisation. In addition, the temperature coefficient for the magnetic moment was measured, down to the operational temperature of -130°C. The eddy-current damper was also subjected to a field-induced magnetisation test. All the contributors were included in a model to calculate the magnetic field at the instrument location.

We report time-domain measurements of acoustic-wave-induced magnetization dynamics in magnetic tunnel junctions. The acoustic pulses are generated by femtosecond laser excitation and interact with the magnetization through magnetoelastic coupling. The induced magnetization precession is not only dependent on the externally applied magnetic field, but also on the laser excitation position. The presented method even allows us to coherently control the precession using two laser pulses at various magnetic fields and excitation positions.

In order to investigate the relationship and effect on the performance of magnetic modulator among applied DC current, excitation source, excitation loop current, sensitivity and induced voltage of detecting winding, this paper measured initial permeability, maximum permeability, saturation magnetic induction intensity, remanent magnetic induction intensity, coercivity, saturated magnetic field intensity, magnetization curve, permeability curve and hysteresis loop of main core 1J85 permalloy of magnetic modulator based on ballistic method. On this foundation, employ curve fitting tool of MATLAB; adopt multiple regression method to comprehensively compare and analyze the sum of squares due to error (SSE), coefficient of determination (R-square), degree-of-freedom adjusted coefficient of determination (Adjusted R-square), and root mean squared error (RMSE) of fitting results. Finally, establish B-H curve mathematical model based on the sum of arc-hyperbolic sine function and polynomial.

The MgO-based magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) is the basis of modern hard disk drives' magnetic read sensors. Within its operating bandwidth, the sensor's performance is significantly affected by nonlinear and oscillating behavior arising from the MTJ's magnetization dynamics at microwave frequencies. Static I-V curve measurements are commonly used to characterize sensor's nonlinear effects. Unfortunately, these do not sufficiently capture the MTJ's magnetization dynamics. In this paper, we demonstrate the use of the two-tone measurement technique for full treatment of the sensor's nonlinear effects in conjunction with dynamic ones. This approach is new in the field of magnetism and magnetic materials, and it has its challenges due to the nature of the device. Nevertheless, the experimental results demonstrate how the two-tone measurement technique can be used to characterize magnetic sensor nonlinear properties.
