Moreover, ALPS Green Devices Co., Ltd. has deve- loped the GLMD Series Liqualloy™ Power Inductor for high-current applications such as CPU power supplies in notebook PCs, servers, and other electro- nic equipment. Shipment of samples is to commence from December 2011. Liqualloy™, the core material used in the inductor, is a metallic glass with magnetic properties created through joint research with Toho- ku University. It is proprietary to Alps Green Devices and features industry-leading low losses. Metallic glass is a type of amorphous metal with a disordered atomic structure that is suited to industrial applica- tions because it has a supercooled liquid region like oxide glass. The adoption of this magnetic material has resulted in lower losses than previous inductors, particularly when operating under light loads.
