Z-type hexaferrite with composition Ba3Co2Fe24O41has been synthesized using a sol-gel auto combustion technique. The obtain combusted powder was sintered at 500 OC and followed by 950 OC for 4 hrs in a muffle furnace. The effect of different sintering temperature on crystal structure, crystallite size, microstructure and dielectric properties were systematically investigated. The prepared barium cobalt hexaferrite powder samples were characterized using different experimental techniques like FTIR, XRD, AC conductivity and specific magnetization measurements. It was observed from XRD results that heat treatment conditions play significant role in the formation of hexaferrite phase. AC conductivity measurements were carried out at room temperature in frequency range of 20Hz to 2MHz. All the samples show the frequency dependent phenomena, i.e. the AC conductivity increases with increasing frequency.

In the present study, a series of Cu substituted M type Barium hexagonal ferrite BaCuxFe12-xO19 (x = 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0) has been synthesized using a Sol- gel auto combustion method. The aim of the present work was to investigate the effects of Cu/Fe ratio on the crystallography and dielectric properties. The XRD studies reveal a formation of the single phase BaFe12O19 at the initial level and mixed phase of S, M and Y hexaferrite at the higher level of copper substitution. The dielectric measurements were carried out at room temperature in a frequency range of 20 Hz to 2MHz. the dielectric constant is found to decrease with the increase of frequency for all the compositions.

Background: Rare earth materials are known for its salient electrical insulation properties with high values of electrical resistivity. It is expected that the substitution of rare earth ions into spinel ferrites could significantly alter its magnetic properties. In this work, the effect of the addition of Samarium ions on the structural, morphological and magnetic properties of Ni0.5Zn0.5SmxFe2-xO4 (x=0.00, 0.02, 0.04, 0.06, 0.08, 0.10) synthesized using sol-gel auto combustion technique was investigated. Methods: A series of Samarium-substituted Ni-Zn ferrite nanoparticles (Ni0.5Zn0.5SmxFe2-xO4 where x=0.00, 0.02, 0.04, 0.06, 0.08, 0.10) were synthesized by sol-gel auto-combustion technique. Structural, morphological and magnetic properties of the samples were examined through X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Field-Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FESEM) and Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM) measurements. Results: XRD patterns revealed single-phased samples with spinel cubic structure up to x= 0.04. The average crystallite size of the samples varied in the range of 41.8 – 85.6 nm. The prepared samples exhibited agglomerated particles with larger grain size observed in Sm-substituted Ni-Zn ferrite as compared to the unsubstituted sample. The prepared samples exhibited typical soft magnetic behavior as evidenced by the small coercivity field. The magnetic saturation, Ms values decreased as the Sm3+ concentration increases. Conclusion: The substituted Ni-Zn ferrites form agglomerated particles inching towards more uniform microstructure with each increase in Sm3+ substitution. The saturation magnetization of substituted samples decreases with the increase of samarium ion concentration. The decrease in saturation magnetization can be explained based on weak super exchange interaction between A and B sites. The difference in magnetic properties between the samples despite the slight difference in Sm3+ concentrations suggests that the properties of the NiZnFe2O4 can be ‘tuned’, depending on the present need, through the substitution of Fe3+ with rare earth ions.

Influence of Ca substitution on structural, magnetic and dielectric properties of Ba3Co2-xCaxFe24O41(where x = 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 and 1.0), prepared by Sol-Gel auto-combustion method, has been investigated in present studies. The obtained powder was sintered at 950 oC for 4 hrs. in the static air atmosphere. Structural analysis of Ca-doped Ba3Co2-xCaxFe24O41powders revealed pure Z-type hexaferrite phase at low temperature. The frequency dependent dielectric constant (Єʹ) and magnetic properties such as remanent magnetization (Mr), saturation magnetization (Ms) and coercivity (Hc) were studied. It is observed that coercivity increased gradually with increase in calcium content. The real dielectric constant (Єʹ) and dielectric loss tangent (tan δ) were studied in the frequency range of 20Hz to 2MHz. The dielectric parameters for all samples show normal dielectric behavior as observed in hexaferrites. Contents of Paper

Higher magnetic Mn doped Zn-Cr oxide nanoparticles with general compositional formula MxZn0.95-xCr0.05O have been synthesized by using sol-gel auto combustion technique. Room temperature X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique has been employed to study the structural and microstructural parameters of the as-prepared samples. XRD analysis confirms the phase purity and hexagonal wurtzite structure of all the samples. Replacement of Zn2+ ions by Mn2+ ions shifts peak positions slightly towards the lower angles which in turn expands the lattice lengths ‘a’ from 3.2487 to 3.2528 Å and ‘c’ from 5.2043 to 5.2118 Å. Crystallite size obtained from Scherrer equation was confirmed by Williamson – Hall (W-H) and size – strain plot methods (SSP). Both W-H and SSP methods reveals the tensile type strain for undoped sample and comprehensive type strain for Mn2+ doped samples. Magnetic properties were investigated by using vibrating sample magnetometer. Diluted ferromagnetic behaviour is observed for all the samples and saturation magnetization (MS) increases from 0.0514 to 0.1163 emu/gm. Two-probe technique was employed to understand the dielectric behaviour of the samples as a function of frequency. At lower frequency region, both dielectric constant () and dielectric loss tangent (tan ) shows higher values and decreases with the increasing applied frequency.
