Effect of Co-Ti Substitution on Magnetic Properties of Nanocrystalline BaFe12O19
<p>The synthesis of nanocrystalline BaFe<sub>12-2x</sub>Co<sub>x</sub>Ti<sub>x</sub>O<sub>19</sub> with variations of x (x = 0, 1, 2, and 3) have been investigated. The formation of polycrystalline samples that the cationic of Co<sup>2+</sup> and Ti<sup>4+</sup> in Co-Ti substituted Fe in BaFe<sub>12</sub>O<sub>19</sub> ferrites structure were prepared by solid state reaction method. The crystal structure, microstructure, and magnetic properties were characterized using powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and permagraph meter, respectively. The results show that the nanocrystalline BaFe<sub>12-2x</sub>Co<sub>x</sub>Ti<sub>x</sub>O<sub>19</sub> has single phase with polycrystalline structure, the grain size decrease by doping, the coercivity (Hc) and saturation magnetization (Ms) decrease with increasing Co-Ti substitutions. </p>
