Fabrication and magnetic property of BaSm(x)Fe(12-x)O19 (x < or = 0.4) nanofibers

BaSm(x)Fe(12-x)O19 (x < or = 0.4) ferrite nanofibers were prepared by sol-gel method from starting reagents of metal salts and citric acid. These nanofibers were characterized by TG-DTA, FTIR, SEM, XRD and VSM. These results show that the BaSm(x)Fe(12-x)O19 (x < or = 0.4) ferrite nanofibers were obtained subsequently from calcination at 750 degrees C for 1 h. The BaSm(x)Fe(12-x)O19 (x < or = 0.4) microstructure and magnetic property are mainly influenced by chemical composition and heat-treatment temperature. The grain sizes of BaSm0.3Fe11.7O19 ferrite nanofibers are in a nanoscale from 40 nm to 62 nm corresponding to the calcination temperature from 750 degrees C to 1050 derees C. The saturation magnetization of BaSm(x)Fe(12-x)O19 ferrite nanofiber calcined at 950 degrees C for 1 h initially decreases with the Sm content from 0 to 0.3 and then increases with a further Sm content, while the coercivity exhibits a continuous increase from 348 kA x m(-1) (x = 0) to 427 kA x m(-1) (x = 0.4). The differences of magnetic properties are attributed to lattice distortion and enhancement for the anisotropy energy.     

Structural and magnetic properties of Ba0.7Sr0.3Fe12 − 2x Co x Ti x O19 M-type hexaferrites

We have studied the effect of “double” substitution in Ba_0.7Sr_0.3Fe_{12 ? 2x} Co _x Ti _x O₁₉ on the structural and magnetic properties of M-type barium hexaferrite. The basic composition of Ba_{1 ? x} Sr _x Fe₁₂O₁₉ obtained by heat-treating carbonate-hydroxide precipitates has been optimized (x = 0.3). 2Fe³⁺ → Co²⁺ + Ti⁴⁺ substitutions considerably reduce the coercive force (H _c) and increase the magnetization (M _s) relative to Ba_0.7Sr_0.3Fe₁₂ O₁₉.     

Microstructure and magnetic properties of Fe(x)Ni(1-x) alloy nanoplatelets

Plate-like nanoparticles (or nanoplatelets) of Fe(x)Ni(1-x) (x = 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, and 0.6) alloy were successfully synthesized through a simple sonochemical method. The shapes of the alloy nanoplatelets with different Fe atom contents are almost same. Their average diameters are about 50 nm, and their average thicknesses are several nanometers. The obtained Fe(x)Ni(1-x) alloy nanoplatelets are single-phased and have a face-centered cubic (FCC) crystal structure. The lattice constants of the alloy nanoplatelets are larger than the corresponding bulk value and increase with increasing Fe content. The surface oxidation of the alloy nanoplatelets leads to the lattice expansion. The alloy nanoplatelet powders are all ferromagnetic, and their saturation magnetizations are slightly lower than the corresponding bulk value. The saturation magnetic field and the coercivity increase with increasing Fe content. Magnetic hysteresis loops along the directions deviating different angles from the nanoplatelets plane are obviously different, indicating that the easy-axis is in the in-plane direction and the magnetization reversal is incoherent mode. The micromagnetic simulation results for the array composed of thirty-six Fe0.6Ni0.4 alloy nanoplatelets fit well with the measured data.     

Structural and magnetic properties of BaFe12 ? 2x Co x Sn x O19 modified M-type hexaferrites

We have studied the effect of heterovalent substitution of a Co²⁺ + Sn⁴⁺ combination for Fe³⁺ on the crystal chemistry and magnetic properties of M-type barium hexaferrite (BHF). The results demonstrate that 2Fe³⁺ ?? Co²⁺ + Sn⁴⁺ heterovalent substitution allows one to tune the magnetic properties of M-type BHF (to reduce its coercive force (H _c), while maintaining its magnetization (M _s) at the level of unsubstituted BHF (x = 0)).

One-dimensional SrFe12O19/Ni(0.5)Zn(0.5)Fe2O4 composite ferrite nanofibers and enhancement magnetic property

SrFe12O19/Ni(0.5)Zn(0.5)Fe2O4 composite ferrite nanofibers of diameters about 100 nm with mass ratio 1:1 have been prepared by the electrospinning and calcination process. The SrFe12O19/Ni(0.5)Zn(0.5)Fe2O4 composite ferrites are formed after calcined at 700 degrees C for 2 hours. The composite ferrite nanofibers are fabricated from nanosized Ni(0.5)Zn(0.5)Fe2O4 and SrFe12O19 ferrite grains with a uniform phase distribution. The ferrite grain size increases from about 11 to 36 nm for Ni(0.5)Zn(0.5)Fe12O4 and 24 to 56 nm for SrFe12O19 with the calcination temperature increasing from 700 to 1100 degrees C. With the ferrite grain size increasing, the coercivity (Hc) and remanence (Mr) for the SrFe12O19/Ni(0.5)Zn(0.5)Fe2O4 composite ferrite nanofibers initially increase, reaching a maximum value of 118.4 kA/m and 31.5 Am2/kg at the grain size about 40 nm (SrFe12O19) and 24 nm (Ni(0.5)Zn(0.5)Fe2O4) respectively, and then show a reduction tendency with a further increase of the ferrite grain size. The specific saturation magnetization (Msh) of 63.2 Am2/kg for the SrFe12O19/Ni(0.5)Zn(0.5)Fe2O4 composite ferrite nanofibers obtained at 900 degrees C for 2 hours locates between that for the single SrFe12O19 ferrite (48.5 Am2/kg) and the single Ni(0.5)Zn(0.5)Fe2O4 ferrite (69.3 Am2/kg). In particular, the Mr value 31.5 Am2/kg for the SrFe12O19/Ni(0.5)Zn(0.5)Fe2O4 composite ferrite nanofibers is much higher than that for the individual SrFe12O19 (25.9 Am2/kg) and Ni(0.5)Zn(0.5)Fe2O4 ferrite (11.2 Am2/kg). These enhanced magnetic properties for the composite ferrite nanofibers can be attributed to the exchange-coupling interaction in the composite.     

Gas sensing property of perovskite SrTi(1-x)Fe(x)O3_delta fabricated by thick film planar technology

Planar sensor of SrTi(1-x)Fe(x)O3-delta, x = 0.4 and 0.6, with perovskite structure was fabricated on alumina substrate using thick film technology. Electrical resistance was measured as a function of thermal treatment conditions, atmosphere, time and temperature. Sensing property was also measured as a function of temperature and the gases of O2, CH4, CO, CO2, NO and NO2. The resistance of SrTi(1-x)Fe(x)O3-delta is lower than those of SrTiO3 or SrFeO3. TCR (temperature coefficient of resistance) of zero over 550 degrees C was measured for the composition of SrTi(1-x)Fe(x)O3-delta after thermal treatment at 1100 degrees C in air atmosphere only. The perovskite SrTi(1-x)Fe(x)O3-delta didn't show any response to CH4, CO, CO2, NO and NO2, but an excellent response and recovery characteristics with oxygen concentration.     

Crystal structure and magnetic properties of Sr1 − x Sm x Fe12 − x Co x O19 solid solutions

Sr_{1 ? x} Sm _x Fe_{12 ? x} Co _x O₁₉ (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.5) ferrites have been prepared by solid-state reactions in air at 1470 K using mixtures of samarium oxide, ferric oxide, Co₃O₄, and strontium carbonate. X-ray diffraction characterization showed that the samples with x < 0.2 were single-phase, whereas the samples with 0.2 ≤ x ≤ 0.5 contained α-Fe₂O₃ and those with 0.3 ≤ x ≤ 0.5 contained SmFeO₃, CoFe₂O₄, and Sm₂O₃ as well. The highest degree of Sm³⁺ and Co²⁺ substitutions for Sr²⁺ and Fe³⁺ (x) in the SrFe₁₂O₁₉ ferrite at 1470 K was determined to be slightly less than 0.2. This substitution only slightly decreases the a and c parameters of the hexagonal lattice and the Curie temperature (T _C) of the material. At temperatures of 5 and 300 K in magnetic fields of up to 14 T, we obtained magnetic hysteresis loops, which were used to evaluate the spontaneous magnetization (σ₀), specific saturation magnetization (σ_s), and coercive force (_σ H _c) of the ferrites. The experimentally determined 5-K spontaneous magnetization per formula unit (n ₀) of the x = 0.1 ferrite is 20.86μ_B, which coincides with the theoretical value calculated as n ₀ = (8 × 5) ? (3.9 × 5 ? 0.1 × 3) = 20.8μ_B. At 300 K, the n ₀ and _σ H _c of Sr_0.9Sm_0.1Fe_11.9Co_0.1O₁₉ exceed those of SrFe₁₂O₁₉ by 7.7 and 9.9%, respectively.     

Effects of Cu-doping on the magnetic state of Zn(0.9-x)Fe0.1Cu(x)O

Magnetization measurements were performed on a series of Zn(0.9-x)Fe0.1Cu(x)O samples (0 < x approximately 0.1) prepared using solid state reaction and sol-gel methods. Although Cu is nonmagnetic, we found that increasing Cu content increases the saturation magnetization and enhances the hysteresis losses. Curie behavior of the susceptibility at high temperature indicates the presence of ferromagnetic exchange interaction. Moreover, we found that the exchange interaction and the molecular field coefficient are both ferromagnetic and greatly enhanced with Cu-doping; however, the Arrott-Belov-Kouvel plot did not reveal the presence of spontaneous magnetization down to 4.2 K.

Controllable synthesis and magnetic property of Fe/Fe3O4 polyhedron synthesized by solvothermal method

Fe/Fe₃O₄ nano-cubes and nano-octahedrons have been successfully synthesized by employing a facile solvothermal method at 180?°C in the presence of ethylene glycol (EG). Well-defined assembly of uniform Fe/Fe₃O₄ with an average size of 400?nm could be obtained without a size-selection process. X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy were used to characterize the structure and morphology of the products. The magnetic properties of Fe/Fe₃O₄ nanocomposite were measured by using a vibrating sample magnetometer. The result of magnetic characterization reveals that the magnetic polyhedrons exhibit a ferromagnetic behavior and possess high saturation magnetization. It is expected that these magnetic polyhedron with uniform size would have potential applications in recording media and electrode materials.

Electronic structure studies of nanoferrite Cu(x)Co(1-x)Fe2O4 by X-ray absorption spectroscopy

Pure and mixed cobalt copper ferrites are of great interest due to their widespread application in electronics and medicine. We report on the electronic structure of a nanoferrite Cu(x)Co(1-x)Fe2O4 (0.0 < or = x < or = 1.0) system studied by X-ray absorption spectroscopy. These magnetic nanoferrites (average crystallite size approximately 31-43 nm) were synthesized by an auto combustion method and are characterized by high resolution X-ray diffraction and near edge X-ray absorption fine structure measurements at the O K and Co, Cu, and Fe L-edges. The O K-edge spectra suggest that there is a strong hybridization between O 2p and 3d electrons of Co, Cu and Fe cations and Fe L3,2-edge spectra indicate that Fe ions coexist in mixed valence states (Fe3+ and Fe2+) at tetrahedral and octahedral sites of the spinel structure. Copper and cobalt ions are distributed in the divalent state in octahedral sites of the spinel structure. The origin of high saturation magnetization and coercivity in cobalt-copper ferrites are explained in light of these results.     

Morphology and magnetic properties of diluted magnetic semiconductor 1D nanostructure Ni(x)Sn(1-x)O(2-delta)

SnO2 and Ni(x)Sn(1-x)O(2-delta) (x = 0.007-0.043) 1D nanostructures are fabricated using a catalyzer assisted chemical vapor deposition (CVD). The morphology of the 1D nanostructure is sensitive to the fabrication conditions. As the Ar flux rate is decreased from 50 sccm to 40 sccm, the 1D nanostructure changes from nanowire to nanobelt. All of the Ni(x)Sn(1-x)O(2-delta) 1D nanostructures exhibit room temperature ferromagnetism (RTFM). With the increasing x, magnetic moment per Ni ion increases at first, reaches a maximum of 3.33 microB in x = 0.025, then decreases. The results of annealing in vacuum and oxidizing atmospheres reveal that oxygen vacancies play a crucial role in introducing ferromagnetism, which implies that the origin of RTFM can be understood by the bound magnetic polaron model (BMP).
