Keywords: Cobalt ferrite Gd-substitution Raman spectroscopy Magnetic properties Neel temperature a b s t r a c t Polycrystalline gadolinium (Gd) substituted cobalt ferrites (CoFe 2Àx Gd x O 4 ; x = 0–0.3, referred to CFGO) ceramics have been synthesized by solid state reaction method. Chemical bonding, crystal structure and magnetic properties of CFGO compounds have been evaluated as a function...

Theoretical analysis and Computer simulations have proven to be cost-effective and powerful tools in scientific studies of materials, particularly at nano-scale where synthesis of nano-structures, interpretation of their observed character and exploration of new structures are not always straight forward. We present here fundamental principles of techniques used today for computational simulati...

We report dynamic alternation of the redox chemistry of the Fe/ Fe couple in magnetite during high temperature water−gas shift reaction in Cu codoped Mmodified ferrite catalysts. Various hematitic solid solutions of the type Fe2O3−MxOy−CuOx with M = Cr, Ce, Ni, Co, Mn, and Zn are synthesized using the industrially economical and environmentally friendly coprecipitation method. Interestingly, Cu...

a series of copper and cobalt substituted nanospinel ferrites have been synthesized by the hydrothermal method. these compounds were characterized by ft-ir, xrd, edx, sem and vsm techniques. all of the synthesized nanospinel ferrites were found to be highly efficient and magnetically recoverable in the solvent-free synthesis of substituted 2,6-(2-hydroxybenzyl)-phenols (trisphenols). a wide ran...

In this paper, ferrites are applied in a partitioned stator wound field switched flux (PS-WFSF) machine to increase the air-gap density, and hence, average electromagnetic torque overload capability. Introducing short-circuited inner PS-WFSF can open-circuit phase fundamental back-EMF at 60 W copper loss by 2.33% 3.77%, respectively. Moreover, proposed with exhibit better capability than conven...
