Abstract

M-type substituted strontium hexaferrite nanostructures were synthesized by pechini sol-gel route. The ferrites were investigated by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and performing network analyzer (PNA). In accordance with diffraction patterns, no extra peak was observed for the pure samples. VSM and PNA results showed that the saturation magnetization increased and the dielectric constant decreased with increasing calcination temperature. According to results, the synthesized nanoparticles are suitable for use in high frequency absorbers.
