The fringe magnetic field, induced by magnetoelectric coupling in a bilayer Fe-Ga/Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3_PbTiO3 (PMN-PT) multifunctional composite, was investigated. The induced external field is characterized as having a butterfly hysteresis loop when tuned by an applied electric field. A tuning coefficient of the electrically induced fringe magnetic field is derived from the piezoelectric and magnetostrictive properties of the composite. A measured maximum tuning coefficient, 4.5 Oe/(kV cm−1), is found to agree well with theoretical prediction. This work establishes a foundation in the design of transducers based on the magnetoelectric effect.

A systematic study of electric-field-tuned ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) of a ferroelectric/ferromagnetic/semiconductor multiferroic heterostructure, consisting of a Co₂MnSb epitaxial film grown on a GaAs substrate bonded to a lead zinc niobate-lead titanate crystal, is reported. The films, grown by pulsed laser deposition, were studied for their crystallographic structure, magnetocrystalline anisotropy, and magnetostrictive and ferromagnetic resonance properties. Ferromagnetic resonance measurements were carried out at X-band frequency under the application of electric fields with external magnetic fields applied along the [110], [100], [1Ī0] and [001] directions of the Heusler film. Magnetic anisotropy fields were derived from the angular dependence of FMR measurements, yielding …

BaFe₁₂O₁₉ hexaferrite thick films having high hysteresis loop squareness (Mr/Ms) and low ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) linewidths were processed through the use of a screen printing technique coupled with hot-press sintering. Scanning electron microscopy and x-ray diffraction measurements exhibit strong crystallographic c-axis alignment of crystals perpendicular to the film plane. Static magnetic resonance and FMR measurements were performed to determine the effect of the preparation technique on magnetic hysteresis and microwave properties. Hot pressing during sintering produced dense thick films having high squareness (> 0.95) and reduced coercivity (∽1900 Oe). Of greater importance was the measurement of a minimum peak-to-peak FMR …

The tuning of Néel temperature by greater than 100 K in nanoparticle Mn-ferrite was demonstrated by a growth-rate-induced cation inversion. Mn-ferrite nanoparticles, having diameters from 4 to 50 nm, were synthesized via coprecipitation synthesis. The Neel temperature (TN) increased inversely to the cation inversion parameter,δ (i.e., defined as (Mn1-δFeδ)tet[MnδFe2-δ]octO₄). Concomitantly, TN increased with increased particle growth rate and particle size. These results unambiguously establish cation inversion as the dominant mechanism in modifying the superexchange leading to enhanced TN. The ability to tailor TN enables greater flexibility in applying nanoparticle ferrites in emerging technologies.

We perform extensive finite difference time domain simulations of ferrite based negative index of refraction composites. A wire grid is employed to provide negative permittivity. The ferrite and wire grid interact to provide both negative and positive index of refraction transmission peaks in the vicinity of the ferrite resonance. Notwithstanding the extreme anisotropy in the index of refraction of the composite, negative refraction is seen at the composite air interface allowing the construction of a focusing concave lens with a magnetically tunable focal length.

Scandium (Sc) doped, single phase BaFe₁₂₋ₓScₓO₁₉ (x=0.3 and 0.8) were prepared at large scale (10 g) by a modified chemical coprecipitation technique. The scanning electron micrograph analysis shows the formation of nearly uniform hexagonal platelets with an average size of < 1 μm. The sizes of the platelets were controlled by sintering temperature. The screen printed, in-plane oriented films were annealed at different temperatures to produce a dense and thick ferrite film. The hysteresis loops for x=0.3 show a squareness ratio of 0.9 and the saturation magnetic moment of 3700 G and the coercivity of 250 Oe. The saturation magnetic moment …

The dispersion characteristics of microstrip lines on magnetically anisotropic substrates are studied utilizing the Galerkin's method in the spectral domain. Specifically, we calculate the differential phase shifts of devices consisting of Z-type (Zn₂Z) and Y-type (Zn₂Y) ferrites as a function of applied magnetic field. Our theoretical formulism is effective in modeling highly magnetically anisotropic materials, which are becoming increasingly important for the next generation of microwave devices. Such a theoretical treatment of anisotropic ferrite magnetic materials is presently unavailable in commercial numerical simulation tools.

Barium hexaferrites (BaFe₁₂O₁₉) are especially useful for microwave/millimeter devices. Due to large ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) loss (linewidths > 2 kOe), traditional compacts of polycrystalline Ba ferrites indeed hinder the utilization of the materials for practical devices. The present experiment demonstrates that the quasi-single-crystal Ba ferrite disks can be fabricated by a single solid-state reaction technique without liquid phase participation, combining with a processing of alignment for the ferrite seed crystals. The ferrite bulks show a pure hexagonal Ba ferrite phase, an expected 4πMs of 4.48 kG, and coercivity of 10∽20 Oe along the c axis, similar to the results of a …

A tunable negative refractive index metamaterial and miniature phase shifter have been designed and fabricated in a microstrip configuration for applications in radio frequency integrated circuits. The metamaterial consists of plasmonic copper wires and yttrium iron garnet slabs having a low insertion loss of 5 dB at the center of the transmission band. The yttrium iron garnet material enables the magnetic field tuning of the negative refractive index in a dynamic frequency band from 7.0 to 11.0 GHz. The insertion phase can be tuned by 45 degrees continuously by varying the bias field from 3.8 to 4.6 kOe at 9.0 …

FeCo alloy nanoparticles have been prepared by using a two step modified polyol process using Fe(II) chloride and Co acetate tetrahydrate as Fe and Co metal precursors. Tetraethyl silicate, aluminum isopropoxide, and zirconium(IV) acetyl acetonate were used to make amorphous SiO₂, Al₂O₃, and ZrO₂ coatings, respectively. X-ray diffraction studies showed that there are no crystalline peaks corresponding SiO₂, Al₂O₃, and ZrO₂ because the oxide coatings of the FeCo core are amorphous in nature. The scanning electron micrograph analysis depicted the cubic nature of the particles with mean particle size of about 45 nm. The maximum saturation magnetization of 205 emu/g …

Ferromagnetic air-stable SmCo nanoparticles have been produced directly using a one-step chemical synthesis method. X-ray diffraction studies confirmed the formation of hexagonal SmCo5 as a dominant phase. High resolution transmission electron microscopy confirms the presence of uniform, anisotropic bladelike nanoparticles approximately 10 nm in width and 100 nm in length. Values of the intrinsic coercivity and the magnetization in the as-synthesized particles are 6.1 kOe and 40 emu/g at room temperature and 8.5 kOe and 44 emu/g at 10 K, respectively. This direct synthesis process is environmentally friendly and is readily scalable to large volume synthesis to meet the needs …

High ferromagnetic resonance frequencies and low linewidths in BaO(Fe₂O₃)₆ thin films are achieved by obtaining a low-dispersion of crystallite easy c axes normal to the film. X-ray diffraction and magnetic force microscopy are used to characterize texture and magnetic domain structure for a BaO(Fe₂O₃)₆ film deposited on (0001) SiC with a MgO (111) template layer. Strong c-axis texture normal to the film is observed resulting in strong uniaxial anisotropy. The consequent vector magnetization processes due to a combination of domain wall motion and magnetization rotation are characterized by two dimensional vector coil vibrating sample magnetometry (VVSM).

Next generation magnetic microwave devices require ferrite films to be thick (>300 μm), self-biased (high remanent magnetization), and low loss in the microwave and millimeter wave bands. Here we examine recent advances in the processing of thick Ba-hexaferrite (M-type) films using pulsed laser deposition (PLD), liquid-phase epitaxy, and screen printing. These techniques are compared and contrasted as to their suitability for microwave materials processing and industrial production. Recent advances include the PLD growth of BaM on wide-band-gap semiconductor substrates and the development of thick, self-biased, low-loss BaM films by screen printing.
