Özet

Single-phase M-type hexagonal ferrites, SrBixFe12-xO19 (0.0 <= x <= 1.0), were prepared by a co-precipitation assisted ceramic route. The influence of the Bi3+ substitution on the crystallization of ferrite phase has been examined using powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Mossbauer spectroscopy. The XRD data show that the nanoparticles crystallize in the single hexagonal magnetoplumbite phase with the crystallite size varying between 65 and 82 nm. A systematic change in the lattice constants, a=b and c, was observed because of the ionic radius of Bi3+ (1.17 angstrom) being larger than that of Fe3+ ion (0.64 angstrom). SEM analysis indicated the hexagonal shape morphology of products. From Fe-57 Mossbauer spectroscopy data, the variation in line width, isomer shift, quadrupole splitting and hyperfine magnetic field values on Bi substitutions have been determined.
