Abstract Al substituted Ni0.4Zn0.35Cu0.25Fe2-xAlxO4 (x = 0.00, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20) samples is synthesized using the sol-gel auto-combustion process. X-ray diffraction shows its cubic spinel structure. The lattice constant decreases as the Al3+ content increases. The sizes of the crystallites are also decreasing in the range of 32.15 nm to 22.89 nm. The wavenumbers of tetrahedral and octahedral sites sighted in the FT-IR spectra are similar to that of the precursor. The increment in the Al3+ content increases the DC conductivity. The electrical resistivity decrease with an increase in the temperature, i.e., it has a negative temperature coefficient with resistance similar to semiconductors. VSM results show their isotropic nature forming single domain ferrimagnetic particles. The resultant material is widely significant, as indicated by its result.

X-ray diffraction shows its cubic spinel structure. The lattice constant decreases as the Co content increases. The sizes of the crystallites are in the range of 20.18–26.24 nm. The wavenumbers of tetrahedral and octahedral sites sighted in the FTIR spectra are similar to that of the precursor. The increment on the Co content increases the DC conductivity. The electrical resistivity decrease with increase in the temperature, i.e. it has a negative temperature coefficient with resistance similar to semiconductors. The remnant ratios R obtained from VSM show their isotropic nature forming single domain ferrimagnetic particles. The resultant material is widely significant, as indicated by its result.

Sm (Co or/and Zn) substituted nanocrystalline barium hexaferrites were synthesized by the sol–gel auto-combustion process, then X-ray diffraction (XRD) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) were used to characterize and discuss the phase composition and the magnetic properties of the as-prepared barium hexaferrites. All results showed that the phase composition and magnetic properties were closely related to the doping elements and x. Owing to hyperfine field, canting spin, magnetic dilution and impurity phases, the saturation magnetization (Ms) of all samples increased firstly, and then decreased. Considering the crystallization, the magnetocrystalline anisotropy and the ions occupancy, the doping elements and x critically affected the coercivity (Hc). Compared the magnetic properties of all the samples, it is concluded that Zn 2+ and Co 2+ influenced each other and Zn 2+ occupied 4f2 sites prior to Co 2+, which led to the increase of Ms and the decrease of Hc.

Magnesium ferrite (MgFe2O4) nanoparticles is prepared by sol-gel auto combustion method and calcinated at (200,450, 900) °C. The capping agent was urea and (Mg(NO3)2.6H2O) and (Fe(NO3)3.9H2O) nitrates as sources of metal. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) characteristic show clear modes of the cubic Mg-ferrite structure formation. Infrared spectrum of metal-oxygen vibration at (703-636) and (574-433) cm−1 show the tetrahedral and octahedral site of Mg-ferrite structure. Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) images shown pure crystalline microstructure with polyhedral shapes and very small numbers of globular small particles. The crystallite size of Mg-ferrite is calculated using Debye-Scherrer relation and was in the range of 29 nm.   http://dx.doi.org/10.25130/tjps.24.2019.129

In this paper, we introduced a comparative study of Sm-Tm-substituted Sr-Ba nanohexaferrites (NHFs), Sr0.5Ba0.5TmxSmxFe12−2xO19 with x = 0.00–0.05, manufactured via both citrate sol-gel auto-combustion and ultrasonication approaches. The phase formation of M-type hexaferrite (HF) for both compositions was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) powder pattern, Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectra, scanning and transmission electron microscopy (SEM and TEM) micrographs, energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectra, and elemental mappings. The magnetic properties at room temperature (RT) and low temperature (T = 10 K) were also investigated. M-H loops revealed ferrimagnetic nature for various prepared nanohexaferrites via sol-gel and ultrasonication routes. The Ms (saturation magnetization) and Mr (remanence) values increased with increasing Tm-Sm substituting contents. Ms and Mr reached their maximum values at x = 0.04 in the case of samples prepared using the sol-gel technique and at x = 0.03 for those prepared via ultrasonication route. M-H loops were very broad in samples prepared via ultrasonication route in comparison to those produced by means of the sol-gel approach, implying that the products synthesized via ultrasonication route have greater values of coercivity (Hc). The variations in Hc values with respect to Tm-Sm substitutions were governed by the evolutions in the magneto-crystalline anisotropy. Diffuse reflectance spectra (DRS) were employed to estimate the direct band gap of pristine and co-substituted Sr0.5Ba0.5Fe12O19 hexaferrites. Optical energy band gaps (Eg) of pristine samples were significantly tuned by co-substitution of Tm3+ and Sm3+ ions. Eg values of the Sr0.5Ba0.5Fe12O19 sample, which was synthesized using the sol-gel method, decreased almost linearly from 1.75 to 1.45 eV by increasing co-doped ion content. However, we observed a sharp drop from 1.85 eV to an average of 1.50 eV for the samples, which were synthesized using the ultrasonication approach.

Abstract Nanocrystalline Li 0.35 Ni 0.3 Fe 2.35 O 4 ferrites were prepared at different annealing temperature by sol-gel auto-combustion method. The effects of the annealing temperature on the structure and magnetic properties of the synthesized Li-Ni ferrites were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectra (FT-IR) and Squid-VSM. Rietveld refinement of the X-ray diffraction data confirmed the occurrence of phase transition from α-spinel to β-spinel, from which the ideal cation occupation and lattice parameter can be obtained. The grain size increased significantly with annealing temperature. The variation of saturation magnetization can be well explained in terms of the occupation of ions in tetrahedron and octahedron. The coercivity initially increased and later decreased significantly from 115 to 37 Oe with the increase of annealed temperature which could be attributed the fact that the 600℃-annealed grain size is close to transition size from single to multidomain region.

Abstract Y3+ substituted strontium hexaferrites having chemical composition SrYxFe12-xO19 (x= 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5) were successfully synthesized by sol-gel auto-combustion method. The structural and morphological studies of prepared samples were investigated by using X-ray diffraction technique, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. The X-ray diffraction pattern confirmed the single-phase hexagonal structure of yttrium substituted strontium ferrite and the lattice parameters a and c increased with the substitution of Y3+ ions. The crystallite size also varied with x content from 60 to 80 nm. The morphology was studied by FE-SEM, and the grain size of nanoparticles ranged from 44 to 130 nm. The magnetic properties were investigated by using vibrating sample magnetometer. The value of saturation magnetization decreased from 49.60 to 35.40 emu/g. The dielectric constant decreased non-linearly whereas the electrical dc resistivity increased with the yttrium concentration in strontium hexaferrite.

AbstractThis study presents a preparation of SrFe12O19– SrTiO3 nanocomposite synthesis via the green auto-combustion method. At first, SrFe12O19 nanoparticles were synthesized as a core and then, SrTiO3 nanoparticles were prepared as a shell for it to manufacture SrFe12O19–SrTiO3 nanocomposite. A novel sol-gel auto-combustion green synthesis method has been used with lemon juice as a capping agent. The prepared SrFe12O19–SrTiO3 nanocomposites were characterized by using several techniques to characterize their structural, morphological and magnetic properties. The crystal structures of the nanocomposite were investigated via X-ray diffraction (XRD). The morphology of SrFe12O19– SrTiO3 nanocomposite was studied by using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The elemental composition of the materials was analyzed by an energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX). Magnetic properties and hysteresis loop of nanopowder were characterized via vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) in the room temperature. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) spectra of the samples showed the molecular bands of nanoparticles. Also, the photocatalytic behavior of nanocomposites has been checked by the degradation of azo dyes under irradiation of ultraviolet light.

Zn2SiO4:Eu3+, Dy3+ phosphors have been prepared through the sol-gel process. X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric and ddifferential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), FT-IR spectra and photoluminescence spectra were used to characterize the resulting phosphors. The results of XRD indicated that the phosphors crystallized completely at 1000oC. In Zn2SiO4:Eu3+,Dy3+ phosphors, the Eu3+ and Dy3+ show their characteristic red(613nm, 5D0-7F2), blue (481nm, 4F9/2–6H15/2) and yellow (577nm, 4F9/2–6H13/2) emissions.

“Aging,” defined as the drift of resistance with temperature after 1000 h, was investigated for iron manganite temperature coefficient thermistors. For these devices, aging is relatively large, about 10%. The cationic distributions before and after aging were determined by Mössbauer spectroscopy. These distributions explain all the x-ray diffraction and correlated electrical data. The origin of the aging observed on iron manganites thermistors has been identified. It is due to the migration of Fe3+ ions from tetrahedral to octahedral sites of the spinel structure in order to reach a structural equilibrium.
