Abstract

The influences of Mg doping on the magnetic order structure and magnetoelectric (ME) effect were investigated in Y-type hexaferrite BaSrCo2-xMgxFe11.1Al0.9O22 (x = 0.00, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1.00) ceramics. The results revealed that the Mg doping could increase the magnetic phase transition temperature. The optimal magnetic-driven electric polarization could be obtained at x = 0.25 ceramic, exhibiting a maximum electric polarization of 16.22 μC/m2 and a ME coefficient of 203 ps/m at 100 K. The stability of reversible electric polarization was demonstrated via the measurement of continuous magnetic field cycles. Moreover, the ME phase diagram was established by measuring the magnetic dielectric properties. Finally, a possible Mg-tune magnetic structure was proposed to explain the enhanced ME effect.
