Abstract

Abstract We produced ZrO 2 ceramic tape decorated with magnetic nanoparticles through tape casting technique. The green and sintered magnetic tapes were characterized by XRD, SEM, EDS, magnetic measurements, and I–V curves. We investigated the changes in the structural, magnetic and electrical properties, after the sintering process, and discussed the connections between them. The magnetic properties, performed in a wide range of external magnetic field and temperature, show magnetite phase for the magnetic nanoparticles governing the magnetic and electric properties of the green tape. On the other hand, for the sintered tape, the increase in the hematite phase led to remarkable changes in the magnetic and electrical properties. The electrical characterization reflects the observed changes in the structural properties after the sintering process. Additionally, the main advantages of the ceramic tapes decorated with magnetic nanoparticles reside in the possibility of producing functional thin ceramic materials that are easily moldable for electronic devices applications.
