ABSTRACT

In the present investigation, the samples with chemical composition BaAl2Fe12O22 have been synthesized using perfect stoichiometric proportions of nitrates by chemical co-precipitation technique. The pellets of 15 mm diameter were prepared and sintered at 1100? for 6 and 4 hrs and at 1000? for 6 hrs separately. The characteristic studies have been done using XRD, SEM, electrical and magnetic properties. XRD studies of the samples showed hexagonal Y-type structure with unit cell dimensions 'a' and 'c' varies from a = 5� to 6� and c = 43� to 47� pertaining to space group P63/mmc (No. 194). The variation in the values of lattice parameter has to be recorded with increase in Mn-Zn conc. The magnetic properties of prepared Y-type Ca-hexaferrite powder were investigated by VSM studies at 15,000 Gauss magnetic field. The transition temperature and activation energies have been investigated from electrical behavior of the samples.
