Abstract
Hydrolysis of a mixture of iron ethoxide and yttrium butoxide produced amorphous yttrium iron garnet (YIG) ultrafine particles with a mean diameter of 9 nm. The particles prepared by hot water vapor hydrolysis were less agglomerated than those prepared by plain hot water. DTA revealed that a broad phase transition temperature To from amorphous YIG to crystalline YIG ultrafine particles is 691°C with heat discharge of 118 kJ/mol which is attributed to the entropy decrease accompanying the crystallization, whereas magnetic experiments gave a value of To= 650°C. The particles calcined at 700°C were single‐crystalline ones while those calcined at higher temperatures (at least higher than 800°C) were multicrystalline ones.
