Abstract
A series of (Tb–Mn) doped Sr2Co(2−x)MnxTbyFe(12−y)O22 (x=0.0–1, Y=0.0–0.1) Y-type hexaferrite were synthesized by the microemulsion method. The effect of doping of manganese at the tetrahedral site, and terbium at octahedral site, has been studied. It was observed that changes in magnetic properties such as saturation magnetization, coercivity, remanence and magnetic moment due to the cationic stoichiometry and their occupancy in the specific sites. The energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence analysis was used to confirm the concentration of the elements. Scanning electron micrograph of the samples showed that grains are of plate like shape which is quite encouraging for their use in microwave devices and in perpendicular recording media (PRM) due to their high value of coercivity, 3200Oe comparable to M-type and W-type hexaferrites hard magnetic materials.
