Abstract

ABSTRACT The dielectric response of M-hexaferrite nanoceramics is complex since it is determined by crystal structure and microstructure. We studied the dielectric behavior of Nd3+ modified Sr2 + Fe12O19 nanoceramics with ferric ions, responsible for magnetic properties, substituted by Sc3+ and Al3+. To compare the effect of different ionic radii we discussed the dielectric response of Sr0.95Nd0.05Fe12-xScxO19 and Sr0.95Nd0.05Fe12-xAlxO19 at the doping level of x = 1.08. The dielectric response was found to consist of four contributions: (i) Low-temperature dispersion of dielectric polarization created by doping-induced spin-canting. The polarization, described by the inverse Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya model, is in nanoceramics limited by the shape and size of the crystallites. (ii) Changes in relaxation modes of polar vacancies due to interaction with electric dipole moments modified by deformation of oxygen octahedra. (iii) Dielectric dispersion in room temperature range related to space charge relaxation in grain boundaries. (iv) High-temperature electric conductivity of the grain interiors.
