A reiterative technique is developed for finding in normalized form the differential phase shift provided by the circular waveguide, completely filled with azimuthally magnetized ferrite which propagates normal TE01 mode. It consists in a repeated numerical solution of the structure’s characteristic equation, derived in terms of a definite complex Kummer confluent hypergeometric function, follo...

superparamagnetic single phase zinc ferrite nanoparticles have been prepared by coprecipitation method at 20 °c without any subsequent calcination. the composition, crystallite size, microstructure and magnetic properties of the prepared nanoparticles were investigated using x-ray diffraction (xrd), field emission scanning electron microscope (fesem), transmission electron microscope (tem), fou...

A nonlinear microwave phase shifter based on ferrite-ferroelectric composite material has been studied for the first time. The ferrite-ferroelectric composite is fabricated in the form of bilayer consisted of yttrium iron garnet and barium strontium titanate. A principle of operation of the device is based on the linear and nonlinear control of the phase shift of the hybrid spinelectromagnetic ...

Purpose Susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI) based on GRE provides enhancement of susceptibility difference which is useful for visualization of vein, micro-hemorrhage and iron deposition. However, GRE suffers from the macroscopic B0 inhomogeneity due to air/tissue boundary and this effect is shown as SNR loss both in magnitude and phase. Previously, 3D z-shim multi-echo GRE (mGRE) pulse seque...

There has been a surge of interest in the subwavelength confinement of electromagnetic fields. It is well known that, in optics, subwavelength confinement can be obtained from surface plasmon (quasielectrostatic) oscillations. In this article, we propose to realize subwavelength confinement in microwaves by using dipolarmode (quasimagnetostatic) magnon oscillations in ferrite particles. Our stu...

An in-situ Raman spectroscopic study was conducted to explore the pressure induced phase transformation of spinel-type ferrite ZnFe2O4. Results indicate that ferrite ZnFe2O4 initially transforms to an orthorhombic structure phase (CaFe2O4polymorph) at a pressure of 24.6 GPa. Such a phase transformation is complete at 34.2 GPa, and continuously remains stable to the peak pressure of 61.9 GPa. Th...

A phase-steered microstrip antenna array is presented, suitable for application as a mobile vehicle satellite terminal. Phase shifters are implemented on a hybrid dielectric-ferrite substrate, and use is made of the phase transition near the cut-off region of the biased ferrite. Small permanent magnets and carefully biased ferrites remove the need for large applied electromagnetic fields. 2-, 3...

The propagation of plane waves in a Faraday chiral medium is investigated. Conditions for the phase velocity to be directed opposite to the direction of power flow are derived for propagation in an arbitrary direction; simplified conditions which apply to propagation parallel to the distinguished axis are also established. These negative phase-velocity conditions are explored numerically using ...

MnZnFe2O4 ferrite nanoparticles were prepared by co-precipitation method using a microwave heating system at temperature of 100 C. X-ray diffraction reveals the samples as prepared are pure ferrite nanocrystalline phase, transmission electron microscopy image analysis shows particles are in agglomeration state with an average size of about 10 nm, furthermore, crystal size of samples are increas...
