摘要:
A magnetic micro-device and process to manufacture the same is disclosed. The magnetic micro-device has a near-zero conductivity magnetic nanocomposite film layer with a plurality of apertures through which a corresponding plurality of electrical conductors (vias) pass. Due to the near-zero conductivity of the magnetic nanocomposite film layer, the vias are self-insulating. The presence of the magnetic nanocomposite film layer results in greater inductance than that possible with an air core (or core-less) magnetic micro-device. Potential magnetic micro-devices include toroid micro-inductors, solenoid micro-inductors, toroid micro-transformers, and solenoid micro-transformers. Additional potential magnetic micro-devices include generators, motors, electromagnetic switches, and voice coils (for speakers or microphones). The process used to manufacture the magnetic micro-device can be scaled to cost-effectively produce large numbers of the magnetic micro-device.

A magnetic topological nanowire structure comprises a superconductor and a quasi-1D magnetic nanowire. The quasi-1D magnetic nanowire is coupled to or embedded in the superconductor to produce a self-contained interaction resulting in a spatially separated pair of Majorana fermions. The pair of Majorana fermions corresponds to the topological superconductor and each of the pair of the Majorana fermions are localized near a respective endpoint of the nanowire.

Disclosed is a method for preparing hematite iron oxide having various nanostructures, including: preparing a mixture solution by adding iron chloride and caffeine to a solvent and magnetically stirring; and performing hydrothermal synthesis, wherein the solvent is selected from water, ethanol, propanol and methanol. In accordance with the present disclosure, hematite iron oxide (α-Fe2O3) superstructures of various shapes, including grape, cube, dumbbell and microsphere shapes, can be synthesized in different solvents using caffeine. The shapes can be controlled variously via a simple one-step synthesis route without using a growth-inducing agent and without separation based on size. The prepared hematite iron oxide exhibits high coercivity at room temperature owing to its fine crystal structures and anisotropic shapes. The hematite iron oxide nanoparticles having different nanostructures prepared according to the present disclosure may be widely useful in biological and biochemical applications as a material having peroxidase mimic activity and thus capable of replacing natural enzymes.
