Abstract
Samples of BaFe12O19 M-type barium hexaferrite with partial iron substitution by zirconium ions (concentration up to 10 at.%) have been synthesized and investigated. Studies of crystal features, phase composition, and magnetic properties were carried out using X-ray diffraction, Mössbauer spectroscopy, and VSM respectively. The presence of limited heterovalent isomorphism by the 2Fe3+ → Zr4+ + Fe2+ mechanism was shown. The limit of heterovalent isomorphic substitution by zirconium ions in barium hexaferrite (x = 0.6) was established. It was noted that additional sextets in the Mössbauer spectra of barium hexaferrite can be formed during the localization of Zr4+ ions predominantly in the 12k and 4f2 positions due to the frustration of the magnetic structure. The correlation between the chemical composition (concentration of zirconium ions), impurity phase formation, the peculiarities of the distribution of substituents over oxygen coordination, and the magnetic properties was established.
