Magnetic domain behaviour of MgFe2O4-CoFe2O4 system

Ferrites with the composition Mg_1−x CO _x Fe₂O₄(0<x≤0·33) were synthesized by solid state reaction between MgO,α-Fe₂O₃ and CoFe₂O₄ at 1300°C. The compounds were analyzed from the results of x-ray diffraction, magnetic hysteresis and initial susceptibility (χ) studies. All the compounds of the series were found to be monophasic with no appreciable change in their lattice parameter. The saturation magnetization and coercive field (H _c ) values increased with increasing cobalt ferrite content. Similarly, the shapes of theχ-T curves and temperature variations ofH _c values indicated that the magnetic behaviour changes from multi-domain to single domain with increasing cobalt content. The results are similar to those observed for the (MgFe₂O₄)_1−x (Co₃O₄) system.

Structural study of NiXMg1–XFe2O4 ferrites

The ferrite system Ni _x Mg_1-x Fe₂O₄ with 0≤x≤1 was prepared using the usual ceramic technique. The prepared samples were studied by X-ray diffraction and IR spectroscopy. X-ray diffraction analysis proved that all the samples were single-phase with the cubic spinel structure. The lattice constant, radius of the tetrahedral ion, unshared octahedral edge, tetrahedral bond and tetrahedral edge decrease while the bulk and theoretical densities, radius of octahedral ion, octahedral bond and shared octahedral edge increase as nickel ion substitution increases. The positions and intensities of the four bands of IR absorption spectra characterizing ferrites are composition dependent.     

DC electrical resistivity for CoxNi5/3−xSb1/3Fe1O4 ferrites

The DC electrical resistivity (p) was studied for Co substituted SbNi ferrites as a function of temperature and composition. The experimental results showed that DC resistivity, Curie temperature and activation energies for electrical conduction increase as Co-ion substitution decreases. The DC electrical conductivity increases as temperature increases. The real part of dielectric constant (e') was found to be inversely proportional to the root mean square value of the electrical resistivity.     

DC conductivity for NixMg1–xFe2O4 ferrites

The DC electrical conductivity was studied as a function of both composition and temperature for the ferrite system Ni_xMg_1–xFe₂O₄ prepared by the usual ceramic technique. The experimental results proved that, the DC electrical conductivity increases as the temperature increases and as the nickel ion content and porosity decrease. The Curie temperature and the activation energies for electrical conduction increase as the nickel ion content increases.     

Effects of sintering temperature and Bi2O3 content on microstructure and magnetic properties of LiZn ferrites

The effects of sintering temperature and Bi₂O₃ content on the microstructure and magnetic properties of lithium–zinc (LiZn) ferrites prepared by a conventional ceramic method were investigated. The results show that the densification behavior and grain growth rate were greatly improved by the addition of Bi₂O₃, because a liquid phase sintering occurred during the sintering process at high temperature due to the low-melting point of Bi₂O₃ (825 °C). X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of the slightly doped samples did not reveal the appearance of any phase other than spinel LiZn ferrite. However, the secondary phase of perovskite BiFeO₃ was detected for Bi₂O₃ content of more than 0.25 wt%. The studies further show that Bi oxide was present at grain boundary, and promoted the grain growth as reaction center at lower temperature. A high saturation magnetization, squareness ratio, minimum ferromagnetic resonance linewidth and low coercive force were obtained for the sample with 1.00 wt% Bi₂O additive at lower sintering temperature (1100 °C).     

Microwave-induced combustion synthesis and characterization of NixCo1−xFe2O4 nanocrystals (x = 0.0, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0)

A series of Ni-doped cobalt ferrites Ni_xCo1_−xFe₂O₄ (x = 0.0, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, and 1.0) were prepared using microwave-induced combustion. Nickel, cobalt, and ferric nitrates were used as starting materials and glycine as fuel. The influence of Ni content on the lattice parameter, stretching vibrations, and magnetization was studied. XRD, FTIR, and SEM were used for structure, composition, and morphology investigation. A porous network structure was observed with average particle size 60–67 nm. All samples had a cubic spinel structure. The unit cell parameter “a” decreases linearly with nickel concentration due to the smaller ionic radius of nickel. Magnetization measurements showed that coercivity decreased as Ni content increased; it increased with decreasing temperature.

Some physical and magnetic properties of Mg‐Zn ferrite

Some physical properties (such as lattice parameter, density and porosity) and magnetic properties of the system Mg_1‐xZn_xFe₂O₄; where x=0,0.1,0.2,0.3,0.4,0.5and 0.6 have been studied. It was found that the lattice parameter increases with increasing the zinc concentration. The composition dependence of the physical properties is divided into two regions. The first one is for x ≤ 0.3 and the second one is for x > 0.3. From the magnetization measurements, the basic composition (MgFe₂O₄) shows the lowest magnetization, while the composition of x=0.4 shows the highest one. The behaviour of magnetization M versus composition shows also two regions for x <>0.3. The behaviour of M versus x was discussed in the bases of cation distribution. From the B‐H loops, the remanence induction B_r, saturation induction B_s and the coercive force H_c were determined and studied with x. The Curie temperature T_C was determined from the measurements of the initial permeability μ_i versus temperature. It was found T_C decreases with increasing Zn‐content. Also paramagnetic temperature T_P was determined from the behaviour of M_S vs. T. In general it was found T_P > T_C by about 7‐10 K.     

Influence of PbO and Ta2O5 on Some Physical Properties of MgCuZn Ferrites

Two series of MgCuZn ferrites are prepared by addition of Ta⁵⁺ and Pb²⁺ ions, separately. The variations of the sintered density, initial permeability, saturation magnetization, Curie temperature and electrical resistivity with the dopant concentration have been studied. The sintered density was found to increase when PbO content is 0.6 wt% or larger. Samples doped with PbO exhibit an appreciable higher resistivity compared to Ta‐doped and undoped samples as a result of the insulating layers on the grain boundaries. The temperature dependence of the electrical resistivity shows a change in slope in the neighbourhood of Curie temperature for all samples and this has been attributed to the influence of the magnetic ordering on the conduction mechanism. Also PbO addition improves the temperature dependence of the initial permeability. The origin of the beneficial effect of PbO compared to Ta₂O₅ is believed to be attributed to the melting of PbO and formation of liquid phase at grain boundaries.
