Magnetic and dielectric properties of polycrystalline La doped barium Z-type hexaferrite for hyper-frequency applications

摘要

La~(3+) ion substituted barium Z-type hexaferrite, Ba_(3-x)La_xCo_2Fe_(24)O_(41) powders (X = 0.0, 0.05, 0.10 and 0.15), have been synthesized using sol gel auto-combustion method. The phase identification, microstructure, complex permittivity, complex permeability and static magnetic properties of the samples were studied using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, vector network analyzer and vibrating sample magnetometer. The results revealed that introducing La~(3+) ion instead of Ba~(2+) ion led to an obvious enhancement of the electromagnetic properties. The crystallite size of the produced powders was slightly increased with increasing La~(3+) content. The microstructure of the produced powders appeared as hexagonal-platelet like structure. As the La content increase, the static magnetic properties were increased, the real part of complex permittivity was increased while the imaginary part was decreased. Moreover, the real part of complex magnetic permeability was decreased and the imaginary part was increased. The reasons of the obtained results were discussed on basis of electromagnetic theory.
