Investigation of magnetic and structural properties on Cobalt doped Barium Ferrite via Co-precipitation Method

Abstract

In this paper, it is planned to synthesize the cobalt doped barium ferrite using co-precipitation technique at different ratios. This is done in order to avoid the magnetic loss and increasing the permeability of this material. The different ratio (0-8%) of cobalt doped barium ferrite samples are exposed to sintering process under the temperature 1200°C for 6 hrs and the X-ray powder diffraction analysis is carried out. The analysis designates that the measured values agree to the standard parameters (a=b=5.864 Å, and c=23.099 Å), approving that the samples belong to the system is hexagonal. By using beam of X-rays, XPS spectrums are obtained, and the binding energy of the sample is measured. The vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) measures the magnetic saturation, magnetic remanance and coercivity of a sample. The magnetic saturation, magnetic remanence and coercivity values are found and tabulated.
