A series of Zn1-xCoxNdyFe2-yO4 spinel ferrites (x=0,0-0.5, y=0.00-0.10) was synthesized using the co-precipitation method sintered at 1000 o C. Synthesized Ferrites were characterized by x-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and vibrating sample magnetometery (VSM). The diffraction patterns show the formation of the spinel phase along with some traces of second phase Nd2O3...

The objective of this program is to develop the knowledge and technology necessary to take full advantage of the unidirectional attenuative properties of ferrites in achieving improved gain and bandwidth in crossed-field microwave amplifiers and oscillators. During this fourth quarterly period, activities included further cold testing of ferrite materials in the L-band cold test vehicle and in ...

Ferrites have always been a subject of great interest from point of view of magnetic application, since the fist compass to present date. In contrast, the scientific interest for iron based magnetic oxides decreased after Ørsted discovery as they where replaces by coil as magnetizing sources. Néel discovery of ferrimagnetism boosted again interest and leads to strong developments during two dec...

In this research, first, nanoparticles of SrFe11.98Mg0.1Sn0.1O19 hexaferrite was synthesized via sol-gel auto-combustion process and then the nanocomposites of hexagonal ferrites/perovskite with the amounts of SrFe11.98Mg0.1Sn0.1O19/BaTiO3 (50/50, 40/60, 70/30 w/w) was prepared by the ball-milling...

Recent advances in microwave ferrite device technology have seen the introduction of superconductivity that virtually eliminates insertion losses due to electrical conduction in microstrip circuits. The conventional ferrimagnetic spinel and garnet compositions, however, are not generally optimized for temperatures in the vicinity of 77 K and may require chemical redesign in order to realize the...
