Sol-gel Synthesized Yb-substituted ?-type Hexagonal Ferrites: Study of Structural, Grain Morphology, Electrical Polarization, Electrical Resistivity, Magnetic and Permeability Properties
Abstract:In present work, an investigation was carried out about the various important properties of Yb 3+ substituted Potassium based ?-hexaferrite KFe 11-x Yb x O 17 (x= 0.0, 0.02, 0.06, 0.1). The Sol-gel auto combustion technique was used to synthesize all the samples. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns confirmed the single hexagonal phase for all prepared samples. The Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) confirmed the agglomeration of small particles into big grains. The DC electrical resistivity, measured in the v… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
