Abstract

ABSTRACTMg0.2Mn0.8NdxFe2-xO4 (x = 0.000, 0.025, 0.050, 0.075 and 0.010) nano crystalline is synthesized via hydrothermal technique. Single cubic spinel phase is confirmed by XRD and the formation of Mg0.2Mn0.8NdxFe2-xO4 is verified by EDS. The average size of the nanoferrites is examined by TEM image. Nd3+ substituted Mg-Mn nanoferrites exhibit the low saturation magnetization (Ms) and high coercivity (Hc). The ferrite composites present that the resistivity and the magnetic loss are less than 2.8×107 Ω·cm and 0.75 in the range of 2-18 GHz, respectively. The optimized Mg0.2Mn0.8NdxFe2-xO4 (x=0.050) showed the minimum reflection loss of -39.80 dB at 1.4 GHz and effective absorption bandwidth (lower than -10 dB) of 7.58 GHz with a thickness of only 3 mm. The high coercivity, resistivity and excellent wave absorption performance indicate that the addition of Nd3+ contributes to the synthesis of the excellent soft magnetic materials and wave absorbing materials.
