We report the synthesis of Y-substituted Mg-Zn ferrites using conventional standard ceramic technique. XRD patterns confirm the single phase cubic spinel structure up to x = 0.03 and appearance of a secondary phase of YFeO3for higher Y contents. FESEM images depict the distribution of grains and EDS spectra confirmed the absence of any unwanted element. Completion of solid state reaction and formation of spinel structure has been revealed from FTIR spectra. The FTIR data along with lattice constant, bulk density and porosity were further used to calculate the stiffness constant (Cij), elastic constant and Debye temperatures. Mechanical stability of all studied compositions is confirmed from Cij using Born stability conditions. Brittleness and isotropic nature are also confirmed using Poisson ratio and anisotropy constants, respectively. The enhancement of dc electrical resistivity with Y content is observed. The energy band gap (increased with Y contents) is found in good agreement with dc electrical resistivity. Ferrimagnetic to paramagnetic phase change has been observed from the field dependent high temperature magnetization curves. The magnetic moments and saturation magnetization were found to be decreased with increasing temperature. The Curie temperature (Tc) has been measured from temperature dependent magnetic moment (M-T) and initial permeability and found to be in good agreement with each other. Decrease in Tc with Y content is due to redistribution of cations and weakening of the exchange coupling constant. The magnetic phase transition has been analyzed by Arrott plot and found to have second order phase transition. The dc resistivity endorses the prepared ferrites are suitable for high frequency and high temperature magnetic device applications as well.

We report the evolution of structural, magnetic and dielectric properties due to partial substitution of Ba by Sr in the high temperature multiferroic YBaCuFeO5. This compound exhibits ferroelectric and antiferromagnetic transitions around 200 K and these two phenomena are presumed to be coupled with each other. Our studies on magnetic and dielectric properties of the YBa1-xSrxCuFeO5 (x = 0.0, 0.25 and 0.5) show that substitution of Sr shifts magnetic transition towards higher temperature whereas dielectric transition to lower temperature. These results points to the fact that magnetic and dielectric transitions get decoupled as a result of chemical pressure in form of Sr substitution. The nature of magnetodielectric coupling changes across the series with the presence of higher order coupling terms. Additionally in these compounds glassy dynamics of electric dipoles is observed at low temperatures.
The site preference and magnetic properties of Zn, Sn and Zn-Sn substituted M-type strontium hexaferrite (SrFe$_{12}$O$_{19}$) have been investigated using first-principles total energy calculations based on density functional theory. The site occupancy of substituted atoms were estimated by calculating the substitution energies of different configurations. The distribution of different configurations during the annealing process at high temperature was determined using the formation probabilities of configurations to calculate magnetic properties of substituted strontium hexaferrite. We found that the magnetization and magnetocrystalline anisotropy are closely related to the distributions of Zn-Sn ions on the five Fe sites. Our calculation show that in SrFe$_{11.5}$Zn$_{0.5}$O$_{19}$, Zn atoms prefer to occupy $4f_1$, $12k$, and $2a$ sites with occupation probability of 78%, 19% and 3%, respectively, while in SrFe$_{11.5}$SnO$_{19}$, Sn atoms occupy the $12k$ and $4f_2$ sites with occupation probability of 54% and 46%, respectively. We also found that in SrFe$_{11}$Zn$_{0.5}$Sn$_{0.5}$O$_{19}$, (Zn,Sn) atom pairs prefer to occupy the ($4f_1$, $4f_2$), ($4f_1$, $12k$) and ($12k$, $12k$) sites with occupation probability of 82%, 8% and 6%, respectively. Our calculation shows that the increase of magnetization and the reduction of magnetic anisotropy in Zn-Sn substituted M-type strontium hexaferrite as observed experimentally is due to the occupation of (Zn,Sn) pairs at the ($4f_1$, $4f_2$) sites.
We have investigated the Vanadium- (V) substituted Ni-Zn-Co ferrites where the samples were prepared using solid-state reaction technique. The impact of V5+ substitution on the structural, magnetic, dielectric and electrical properties of Ni-Zn-Co ferrites has been studied. XRD analysis confirmed the formation of a single-phase cubic spinel structure. The lattice constants have been calculated both theoretically and experimentally along with other structural parameters such as bulk density, X-ray density and porosity. The FESEM images are taken to study the surface morphology. FTIR measurement is also performed which confirms spinel structure formation. The saturation magnetization (Ms), coercive field (Hc) and Bohr magneton (B) were calculated from the obtained M-H loops. The temperature dependent permeability is studied to obtain the Curie temperature. Frequency and composition dependence of permeability was also analyzed. Dielectric behavior and ac resistivity are also subjected to investigate the frequency dependency. An inverse relationship was observed between the composition dependence of dielectric constant and ac resistivity. The obtained results such as the electrical resistivity, dielectric constants and magnetic properties suggest the appropriateness of the studied ferrites in microwave device applications.
We have studied the structural stability of Sc-substituted rare earth (R) ferrites R1-xScxFeO3, and constructed a structural phase diagram for different R and x. While RFeO3 and ScFeO3 adopt the orthorhombic and the bixbyite structure respectively, the substituted compound R1-xScxFeO3 may be stable in a different structure. Specifically, for R0.5Sc0.5FeO3, the hexagonal structure can be stable for small R, such as Lu and Yb, while the garnet structure is stable for larger R, such as Er and Ho. The formation of garnet structure of the R0.5Sc0.5FeO3 compounds which requires that Sc occupies both the rare earth and the Fe sites, is corroborated by their magnetic properties.
In this article we present a neutron diffraction in-situ study of the thermal evolution and high-temperature structure of layered cobaltites Y(Ba, Sr)Co2 O5+{delta}. Neutron thermodiffractograms and magnetic susceptibility measurements are reported in the temperature range 20 K <= T <= 570 K, as well as high resolution neutron diffraction experiments at selected temperatures. Starting from the as-synthesized samples with {delta} ~ 0.5, we show that the room temperature phases remain stable up to 550 K, where they start loosing oxygen and transform to a vacancy-disordered 112 structure with tetragonal symmetry. Our results also show how the so-called 122 structure can be stabilized at high temperature (around 450 K) in a sample in which the addition of Sr at the Ba site had suppressed its formation. In addition, we present the structural and magnetic properties of the resulting samples with a new oxygen content {delta} ~ 0.25 in the temperature range 20 K <= T <= 300 K.
