Abstract
The utilization of hexagonal structures in nano ferrites has been employed for absorption because of their dielectric, attenuation characteristics, and reflection losses. Electromagnetic pollution is one of the significant issues in cleaning the environment. Electronic devices produce pollution and are hazardous to human health. Therefore, ferrite materials have been used for absorption purposes. In this study, the impact of chromium substitution on the structural and dielectric specifications of the Barium-strontium-based W-type hexagonal ferrites has been investigated and used for microwave absorption application. The sol-gel auto-ignition process prepared w-type hexagonal ferrites with Ba0.5Sr0.5Mg2CrxFe16-xO27 (x = 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, and 0.4). According to XRD examination, the formation of single-phase W-type hexagonal ferrites was proven. The synthesized composition is confirmed to be nanocrystalline because the calculated crystallite size value is in the nanometer range. FTIR analysis confirmed the structure of W-type hexagonal ferrite. Raman spectroscopic study examined the vibrational and rotational modes of molecules. Survey spectra of XPS, which include Ba, Sr, Mg, Fe, Cr, and O, confirmed the presence of all constituent elements. SEM analysis confirmed that the sample contains grains with a hexagonal platelet shape. The results showed that increasing chromium concentration reduced the dielectric permittivity, tan loss, and ac conductivity. At x = 0.4, the reflection loss value is very low. The recorded value is −79.62 dB, corresponding to a frequency of 5.92 GHz, with a thickness of 1.75 mm. Because of this, W-type hexagonal ferrites are suitable for a wide range of electronic applications, including microwave absorbers, high-density recording media, and multilayer chip inductors. These applications have made it possible to functionalize these materials in order to enhance device performance and lower the size, weight, and cost of devices while also fostering the development of new technologies that have significantly improved the quality of our daily lives.
