Magnetostrictive actuator is fabricated with powder nano bonding method instead of sputtering method. Fabrication process and experimental measurement method for magneto-mechanical characteristics is proposed. For the design of highly flexible magnetostrictive actuator, TbDyFe nano powder bonding with Teflon substrate is adopted. The fabrication process for Teflon substrate and nano powder bonding is suggested and magnetostrictive behaviors are investigated. Variable magnetic field is applied to measure the magnetostrictive characteristics and magnetostriction is measured with different waves and different magnitude of magnetic field.

This paper presents new type magnetostrictive optical systems. The suggested wireless optical systems are developed by using two types of magnetostrictive thin film actuators. The first is a seesaw type wireless-controlled compact optical switch, and another is a comb type TbDyFeNi thin film actuator by silicon micromachining techniques with DC magnetron sputtering. In the seesaw type, TbDyFe films are selectively deposited on the micromachined switch matrix. For the optical switching operation, switch is arranged in a 1×2 array (mirror size of 5mm × 800μm × 50μm) and has different length from the supporting point. Mirrors are also actuated by externally applied magnetic fields up to 0.5T. In the comb type, the effect of Ni content on the magneto-mechanical properties of the Tb0.24Dy0.76Fe2 system is investigated with the effect of deposited film thickness of TbDyFeNi on silicon substrate for wireless microactuator. As results, magneto-mechanical characteristics are investigated. using magnetization and deflected angle variation

Magnetostrictive thin films can be applied in transmission system for the enhancement of energy efficiency. In this study, four kinds of substrates (Si, glass, Fe, polyimide) with the magnetostrictive thin film layers are prepared and investigated to characterize the magnetic and mechanical behaviors due to the substrates effects. The fabricated substrates have thicknesses of 50, 150 and 500um with cantilever shape. TbDyFe films are deposited by DC magnetron sputtering with 1～10m thick. The deposited film thicknesses are verified using X-ray diffraction. The magnetization of each sample is examined using VSM(Vibrating Sample Magnetometer) and magnetostriction is also measured using capacitance method to characterize magneto-mechanical behaviors. The magnetostriction results as deflections are compared and the results are discussed for micro actuator applications.
