Combining first-principles calculations with micromagnetic simulations, we investigate recently synthesized ultrathin perovskite bismuth ferrite(BFO) films. Our numerical results reveal that, at the monolayer limit, the ferroelectricity of BFO is missing because the octahedral distortions are constrained. However, the monolayer bismuth ferrite is a topological antiferromagnetic metal with tunable bimeron magnetic structure. The dual topologically non-trivial characteristics make monolayer bismuth ferrite a multifunctional building block in future spintronic devices.展开更多

The mechanism of formation of ZnO and Fe3O4/FeO by the decomposition of ZnFe2O4 was detailed using the equilibrium calculations and thermodynamics analysis by HSC chemistry software 6.0. In addition, the effects of decomposition temperature, the C/ZnFe2O4 ratio, the particle size and the microwave power were assessed on the kinetics of decomposition. Zn recovery as high as 97.93%could be achieved at a decomposition temperature of 750 °C with C/ZnFe2O4 ratio of 1:3, particle size of 61-74 μm and microwave power of 1200 W. The kinetics of decomposition was tested with different kinetic models and carbon gasification control mechanism was identified to be the appropriate mechanism. The activation energy for the carbon gasification reaction was estimated to be 38.21 kJ/mol.展开更多

All samples present a spinel structure. The lattice constant increases with the increase in the Zn content while the grain size decreases from 18 nm to 9 nm. Moreover, the saturation magnetzafion at 5 K and 293 K increases initially when x ≤ 0. 40 and subsequently decreases when x 〉 0. 40. At room temperature, Mossbauer spectra exhibit a change from a well-defined sextet spectrum to a doublet spectrum as the Zn content increases. The doublet spectrum begins to appear when x = 0. 6, while it begins when x = 0. 80 for the bulk materials. The results of magnetization and Curie temperature measurements indicate that the doublet spectrum is due to the surperparamagnetic state of the nanoparticles. Furthermore, the relationship between the hyperfine field variation and the cation distribution is discussed. The variation of magnetic properties is interpreted by the three-sublattice Yafet-Kittel (Y-K)model.展开更多

X-ray diffraction (XRD), a scanning electronic microscopy ( SEM ), a physical properties measurement system (PPMS-9), and a vector network analyzer were used to analyze their structure, surface morphology, magnetic and absorbing properties, respectively. The results show that the absorbing band of the composite absorbing material is widened and the absorbing strength is increased compared with the pure M-type barium ferrite. The sample with the content of doped graphene oxide of 3% has the minimum reflectivity at 10 to 18 GHz frequencies. Hence, the doped graphene oxide effectively improves the absorbing properties of M-type barium ferrite.展开更多

The structure, morphology, and the magnetic properties of the samples were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). A single spinel phase was obtained in the range of x = 0.00 - 0.04. The lattice parameters of the Gd-doped samples were larger than that of pure Li-Ni ferrite, and increased in the range of 0.00 ≤ x ≤ 0.04, then decreased up to x = 0.08, because of the formation of the secondary phase (Gd- FeO3). All samples were spheric particles with an average size of about 100 nm, but agglomerated to some extent. The hysteresis loops indicated that the saturation magnetization decreased gradually with increasing Gd content, while the variation of coercivity was related to the microstructure of the Gd-doped samples.展开更多

文摘With the booming development of electronic information science and 5G communication technology,electromagnetic radi-ation pollution poses a huge threat and damage to humanity.Developing novel and high-performance electromagnetic wave(EMW)ab-sorbers is an effective method to solve the above issue and has attracted the attention of many researchers.As a typical magnetic material,ferrite plays an important role in the design of high-performance EMW absorbers,and related research focuses on diversified synthesis methods,strong absorption performance,and refined microstructure development.Herein,we focus on the synthesis of ferrites and their composites and introduce recent advances in the high-temperature solid-phase method,sol-gel method,chemical coprecipitation method,and solvent thermal method in the preparation of high-performance EMW absorbers.This review aims to help researchers understand the advantages and disadvantages of ferrite-based EMW absorbers fabricated through these methods.It also provides important guidance and reference for researchers to design high-performance EMW absorption materials based on ferrite.

文摘High-entropy design is attracting growing interest as it offers unique structures and unprecedented application potential for ma-terials.In this article,a novel high-entropy ferrite(CoNi)_(x/2)(CuZnAl)_((1-x)/3)Fe_(2)O_(4)(x=0.25,0.34,0.40,0.50)with a single spinel phase of space group Fd3m was successfully developed by the solid-state reaction method.By tuning the Co-Ni content,the magnetic properties of the material,especially the coercivity,changed regularly,and the microwave absorption properties were improved.In particular,the ef-fective absorption bandwidth of the material increased from 4.8 to 7.2 GHz,and the matched thickness decreased from 3.9 to 2.3 mm,while the minimum reflection loss remained below-20 dB.This study provides a practical method for modifying the properties of fer-rites used to absorb electromagnetic waves.

文摘W-type barium-nickel ferrite(BaNi_(2)Fe_(16)O_(27))is a highly promising material for electromagnetic wave(EMW)absorption be-cause of its magnetic loss capability for EMW,low cost,large-scale production potential,high-temperature resistance,and excellent chemical stability.However,the poor dielectric loss of magnetic ferrites hampers their utilization,hindering enhancement in their EMW-absorption performance.Developing efficient strategies that improve the EMW-absorption performance of ferrite is highly desired but re-mains challenging.Here,an efficient strategy substituting Ba^(2+)with rare earth La^(3+)in W-type ferrite was proposed for the preparation of novel La-substituted ferrites(Ba_(1-x)LaxNi_(2)Fe_(15.4)O_(27)).The influences of La^(3+)substitution on ferrites’EMW-absorption performance and the dissipative mechanism toward EMW were systematically explored and discussed.La^(3+)efficiently induced lattice defects,enhanced defect-induced polarization,and slightly reduced the ferrites’bandgap,enhancing the dielectric properties of the ferrites.La^(3+)also enhanced the ferromagnetic resonance loss and strengthened magnetic properties.These effects considerably improved the EMW-absorption perform-ance of Ba_(1-x)LaxNi_(2)Fe_(15.4)O_(27)compared with pure W-type ferrites.When x=0.2,the best EMW-absorption performance was achieved with a minimum reflection loss of-55.6 dB and effective absorption bandwidth(EAB)of 3.44 GHz.

文摘The competition between dimensionality and ordering in multiferroic materials is of great interest for both fundamental physics and potential applications. Combining first-principles calculations with micromagnetic simulations, we investigate recently synthesized ultrathin perovskite bismuth ferrite(BFO) films. Our numerical results reveal that, at the monolayer limit, the ferroelectricity of BFO is missing because the octahedral distortions are constrained. However, the monolayer bismuth ferrite is a topological antiferromagnetic metal with tunable bimeron magnetic structure. The dual topologically non-trivial characteristics make monolayer bismuth ferrite a multifunctional building block in future spintronic devices.
文摘Copper-zinc-nickel(Cu-Zn-Ni)ferrite nanoparticles are used for wastewater treatment technology.However,low degradation efficiency and stability are two main issues that make them unsuitable for actual production needs.In this paper,the citrate-nitrate auto-combustion method was applied for the formation of Cu_(0.5)Zn_(0.25)Ni_(0.25)La_(x)Fe_(2-x)O_(4);(0≤x≤0.1;step 0.02)(CZNL)nanoferrites.Although the substitution process entails the replacement of a small ion with a larger one,the lattice constant and crystallite size does not exhibit a consistent incremental pattern.This behavior is justified and discussed.The size of all the CZNL ferrite nanoparticles is in the range of 8-12 nm,and the lattice constant is in the range of 8.6230 to 8.4865 nm.The morphological analysis conducted using field emission-scanning electron microscopy(FE-SEM)reveals that the CZNL exhibits agglomerated spherical morphology.The energy dispersive X-ray spectrameter(EDAX)analysis was employed to confirm the elemental composition of CZNL nanoferrites.Since the process entails the substitution of Fe^(3+)magnetic ions with nonmagnetic ions La^(3+),the magnetic parameters of CZNL nanoferrites show a general decreasing trend as predicted.At 20 K,saturation magnetization Ms shows an overall drop in its values from 59.302 emu/g at x=0.0-41.295 emu/g at x=0.1,the smallest value of 37.87 emu/g is recorded at x=0.06.the highest coercivity(H_(c)=125.9 Oe)and remanence(M_(r)=13.32 emu/g)are recorded for x=0.08 and x=0.04 nanoferrite,respectvely.The band gap of all the CZNL nanoferrites was determined using the Kubelka-Munk function and Tauc plot for direct permitted transitions.La doping modifies the band gap(within 1.86-1.75 eV),increases light absorption,induces efficient e/h separation and charge migration to Cu_(0.5)Zn_(0.25)Ni_(0.25)La_(x)Fe_(2-x)O_(4)surfaces.The nanoferrite Cu_(0.5)Zn_(0.25)Ni_(0.25)La_(0.06)Fe_(1.94)O_(4)achieves a degradation efficiency of 97.3%for methylene blue(MB)dye removal after just 60 min.After five recycling processes,the nanocatalyst Cu_(0.5)Zn_(0.25)Ni_(0.25)La_(0.06)Fe_(1.94)O_(4)is degraded by 95.83%,resulting in a negligible1.51%decrease in photocatalytic activity efficiency.The new Cu_(0.5)Zn_(0.25)Ni_(0.25)La_(0.06)Fe_(1.94)O_(4)has exceptional photocatalytic activity and remarkable stability,making it a promising candidate for applications in wastewater treatment.

文摘Al_(2)O_(3)and MgO serve as the primary gangue components in sintered ores,and they are critical for the formation of CaO-Fe_(2)O_(3)-xAl_(2)O_(3)(wt%,C-F-xA)and CaO-Fe_(2)O_(3)-xM gO(wt%,C-F-xM)systems,respectively.In this study,a nonisothermal crystallization thermodynamics behavior of C-F-xA and C-F-xM systems was examined using differential scanning calorimetry,and a phase identification and microstructure analysis for C-F-xA and C-F-xM systems were carried out by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy.Results showed that in C-F-2A and C-F-2M systems,the increased cooling rates promoted the precipitation of CaFe_(2)O_(4)(CF)but inhibited the formation of Ca_(2)Fe_(2)O_(5)(C2F).In addition,C-F-2A system exhibited a lower theoretical initial crystallization temperature(1566 K)compared to the C-F system(1578 K).This temperature further decreases to 1554 K and 1528 K in the C-F-4A and C-F-8A systems,respectively.However,in C-F-xM system,the increased MgO content raised the crystallization temperature.This is because that the enhanced precipitation of MF(a spinel phase mainly comprised Fe_(3)O_(4)and MgFe_(2)O_(4))and C2F phases suppressed the CF precipitation reaction.In kinetic calculations,the Ozawa method revealed the apparent activation energies of the C-F-2A and C-F-2M systems.Malek's method revealed that the crystallization process in C-F-2A system initially followed a logarithmic law(lnαor lnα2),later transitioning to a reaction order law((1-α)-1or(1-α)^(-1/2),n=2/3)or the lnα2function of the exponential law.In C-F-2M system,it consistently followed the sequencef(α)=(1-α)^(2)(αis the crystallization conversion rate;n is the Avrami constant;?(α)is the differential equations for the model function of C_(2)F and CF crystallization processes).

文摘Structural manipulation plays a crucial role in material design,exerting a significant influence on various aspects of material performance.However,the impact of material microstructure on electromagnetic waves absorption properties has not been thoroughly investigated.In this study,based on ferrites,we controlled the micros tructural morphology by doping with light rare earth element Nd,and then formed heterogeneous structures through composite polypyrrole to enhance its performance.The structural changes in neodymium-doped ferrites and their corresponding variations in performance were systematically analyzed.The results indicate that Nd^(3+)ions doping has a pronounced effect on the microstructure of ferrites,significantly improving their dielectric loss capability for electromagnetic waves.The sample with optimal performance,Sr_(0.75)Nd_(0.25)Co_(2)Fe_(16)O_(27)@PPy,has a value of minimum reflection loss that can reach-63.11 dB,and the effective absorption bandwidth achieves 6.40 GHz at2.27 mm.This study provides instructive thinking for the structural manipulation of MA materials.

文摘The intrinsic high magnetocrystalline anisotropy equivalent field can help the hexaferrites break through Snoek’s limit and increase the resonance frequency.This is advantageous for microwave absorption applications in the mid to low-frequency range of gigahertz.In this study,we prepared Z-type Ba_(3)Co_(1.6−x)Zn_(x)Cu_(0.4)Fe_(24)O_(41)hexaferrites using the sol-gel auto-combustion method.By changing the ratio of Co and Zn ions,the magnetocrystalline anisotropy of ferrite is further ma-nipulated,resulting in significant changes in their magnetic resonance frequency and intensity.Ba_(3)Zn_(1.6)Cu_(0.4)Fe_(24)O_(41)with high-frequency resonance achieved the lowest reflectivity of−72.18 dB at 15.56 GHz,while Ba_(3)Co_(1.5)Zn_(0.1)Cu_(0.4)Fe_(24)O_(41)with stronger loss obtained the widest bandwidth of 4.93 GHz(6.14-11.07).Additionally,we investigated surface wave suppression properties previously overlooked.Ba_(3)Co_(1.5)Zn_(0.1)Cu_(0.4)Fe_(24)O_(41)can achieve a larger attenuation at low frequency under low thickness,which has an excellent effect on reducing backscattering.This work provides a useful reference for the preparation and application of high-performance magnetic-loss materials.

文摘The Ni-ZnFe_(2)O_(4)(NixZn_(1-x)Fe_(2)O_(4),x=0.4-0.7)spinel was synthesized using Zn2+extracted from electric arc furnace dust(EAFD),nickel chloride hexahydrate,and Fe^(3+)extracted from iron scale as raw materials.The zinc was selectively extracted from EAFD using CaO roasting followed by NH_(4)Cl solution leaching.The ferric ion was leached from iron scale using HCl solution as acid lixiviant.The experimental results demonstrate a high level of efficiency in the extraction of zinc,with a rate of 97.5%,and the leaching rate of ferric ion is 96.89%.The composition of the leaching solution is primary zinc and iron with low calcium,which is beneficial to the preparation of spinel ferrite.The influence of Ni content(x)and calcination temperature on the synthesis and magnetic properties of NixZn_(1-x)Fe_(2)O_(4)compounds was investigated by X-ray diffraction,scanning electron microscopy,and vibrating sample magnetometry.The results revealed that both Ni content and calcination temperature significantly affect the synthesis and magnetic properties of spinel NixZn_(1-x)Fe_(2)O_(4).Under the conditions of Ni content set at x=0.6,calcination temperature of 1100℃,and a duration of 2 h,a spinel NixZn_(1-x)Fe_(2)O_(4)with high saturation magnetization(Ms=65.7 A m2 kg-1)and low coercivity(Hc=0.056 A m^(-1))was obtained.

文摘In this study,Cu_(0.25)Ni_(0.5)Zn_(0.25)Fe_(2-x)Nd_(x)O_(4)(0.000≤x≤0.100,andΔx=0.025)spinel ferrites were synthesized using the auto-combustion method to investigate the influence of neodymium(Nd^(3+))substitution on their structural,optical,dielectric,and magnetic properties.X-ray diffraction result confirms the formation of a face-centered cubic spinel structure,with the average crystallite size decreasing from 39 to 15 nm as Nd^(3+)concentration increases.Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy reveals characteristic absorption bands,affirming the spinel structure.Dielectric measurements over a broad frequency range show a higher dielectric constant and lower dielectric loss,indicating potential suitability for energy-efficient electronic applications.Magnetic analysis using a vibrating sample magnetometer demonstrates soft magnetic behavior,with saturation magnetization decreasing from82.69 to 66.80 emu/g and a tunable ratio(0.0221-0.0068)of remnant magnetization to saturation magnetization depending on Nd^(3+)content.In situ ultrasonic studies provides phase transition temperature(Curie temperature,T_(c))values ranging from 516 to 489 K,highlighting thermal stability and magnetic phase transition behavior.Furthermore,reflection loss measurements in the X-band frequency range(8-12 GHz)confirm the excellent electromagnetic interference shielding and radar absorption capabilities of Cu_(0.25)Ni_(0.5)Zn_(0.25)Fe_(2-x)Nd_(x)O_(4)spinel ferrites.These findings underscore the potential of Nd^(3+)-doped Cu-Ni-Zn spinel ferrites for advanced technological applications,including electronic devices,thermal sensors,and electromagnetic wave absorbers.

文摘In this research work,sol-gel technique was employed to prepare the strontium based spinel ferrite nanoparticles(SrFe_(2)O_(4))with different ratios of terbium(Tb).Different characterization techniques were used to investigate the structural,morphological,dielectric and magnetic properties of the prepared samples.X-ray diffraction(XRD)result suggests that face-centered cube spinel nanocrystalline structure is formed.Crystallite size of the SrFe_(2)O_(4)decreases with rising of Tb ratio.The morphology,shape and size of the SrFe_(2)O_(4)were examined by scanning electron microscopy(SEM)analysis and results reveal inhomogeneous distributions of the nanostructures with high agglomeration.The electrical resistivity of the SrFe_(2)O_(4)increases with rising of Tb ratio,which is confirmed from the cyclic voltammetry.It is observed that dielectric constant of all the samples decreases with the increasing frequency range.It is determined that the dielectric constants of the spinel ferrites are frequency dependent and decrease with increasing the frequency of applied electric field.The magnetic behavior of SrFe_(2)O_(4)with different ratios of Tb was studied and it is found that the saturation magnetization values of samples decrease with increase in the substitution of Tb^(3+)at octahedral sites for Fe^(3+).This decrease in the values of M_(s) is also attributed to spin at surface of nanoparticles.

文摘The kinetics of carbon reduction of ZnFe2O4 in the temperature range of 550-950 °C was investigated in a microwave tank-type reactor. The mechanism of formation of ZnO and Fe3O4/FeO by the decomposition of ZnFe2O4 was detailed using the equilibrium calculations and thermodynamics analysis by HSC chemistry software 6.0. In addition, the effects of decomposition temperature, the C/ZnFe2O4 ratio, the particle size and the microwave power were assessed on the kinetics of decomposition. Zn recovery as high as 97.93%could be achieved at a decomposition temperature of 750 °C with C/ZnFe2O4 ratio of 1:3, particle size of 61-74 μm and microwave power of 1200 W. The kinetics of decomposition was tested with different kinetic models and carbon gasification control mechanism was identified to be the appropriate mechanism. The activation energy for the carbon gasification reaction was estimated to be 38.21 kJ/mol.

文摘A series of ZnxFe3-xO4(x = 0, 0. 15, 0. 30, 0o 40, 0. 48, 0. 60, 0. 70 ) nanoparticles prepared by hydrothermal method are studied by use of transmission electron microscope, X-ray diffraction, vibrating sample magnetometer, superconducting quantum interference device magnetometer and Mossbauer spectrometer. All samples present a spinel structure. The lattice constant increases with the increase in the Zn content while the grain size decreases from 18 nm to 9 nm. Moreover, the saturation magnetzafion at 5 K and 293 K increases initially when x ≤ 0. 40 and subsequently decreases when x 〉 0. 40. At room temperature, Mossbauer spectra exhibit a change from a well-defined sextet spectrum to a doublet spectrum as the Zn content increases. The doublet spectrum begins to appear when x = 0. 6, while it begins when x = 0. 80 for the bulk materials. The results of magnetization and Curie temperature measurements indicate that the doublet spectrum is due to the surperparamagnetic state of the nanoparticles. Furthermore, the relationship between the hyperfine field variation and the cation distribution is discussed. The variation of magnetic properties is interpreted by the three-sublattice Yafet-Kittel (Y-K)model.

文摘In order to improve the absorbing properties of M- type barium ferrite absorbing materials, M-type barium ferrite/graphene oxide composites with different graphene oxide contents were synthesized by the sol-gel autocombustion method. X-ray diffraction (XRD), a scanning electronic microscopy ( SEM ), a physical properties measurement system (PPMS-9), and a vector network analyzer were used to analyze their structure, surface morphology, magnetic and absorbing properties, respectively. The results show that the absorbing band of the composite absorbing material is widened and the absorbing strength is increased compared with the pure M-type barium ferrite. The sample with the content of doped graphene oxide of 3% has the minimum reflectivity at 10 to 18 GHz frequencies. Hence, the doped graphene oxide effectively improves the absorbing properties of M-type barium ferrite.

文摘To improve the performance of Ni-Zn ferrites for power field use,the influence of MnO2 additive on the properties of Ni-Zn ferrites was investigated by the conventional powder metallurgy.The results show that MnO2 does not form a visible second phase in the doping mass fraction range of(0-2.0%).The average grain size,sintering density and real permeability gradually decrease with the increase of the MnO2 content.And the DC resistivity continuously increases with the increase of MnO2 content.The saturation magnetization(magnetic moment in unit mass) first increases slightly when mass fraction of MnO2 is less than 0.4% MnO2,and then gradually decreases with increasing the MnO2 mass fraction due to the exchange interaction of the cations.When the excitation frequency is less than 1 MHz,the power loss(Pcv) continuously increases with increasing the MnO2 content due to the decrease of average grain size.However,when the excitation frequency exceeds 1 MHz,eddy current loss gradually becomes the predominant contribution to Pcv.And the sample with a higher resistivity favors a lower Pcv,except for the sample with 2.0% MnO2.The sample without additive has the best Pcv when worked at frequencies less than 1 MHz;and the sample with 1.6% MnO2 additive has the best Pcv when worked at frequencies higher than 1 MHz.

文摘The development of graphene-based composites with low density,robust absorption,wide bandwidth and thin thickness remained a great challenge in the field of electromagnetic(EM)absorption.In this work,nitrogen-doped reduced graphene oxide/hollow cobalt ferrite(NRGO/hollow CoFe_(2)O_(4))composite aerogels were constructed by a solvothermal and hydrothermal two-step route.Results demonstrated that the as-fabricated composite aerogels had the ultralow density and a unique three-dimensional(3D)network structure,and lots of hollow CoFe_(2)O_(4)microspheres were almost homogeneously distributed on the wrinkled surfaces of lamellar NRGO.Moreover,superior EM absorbing capacity could be achieved by modulating the ferrite structure,addition amounts of hollow CoFe_(2)O_(4)and thicknesses.It was noteworthy that the NRGO/hollow CoFe_(2)O_(4)composite aerogel with the addition amount of ferrite of 15.0 mg pos-sessed the minimum reflection loss of-44.7 dB and maximum absorption bandwidth of 5.2 GHz(from 12.6 to 17.8 GHz)at a very thin thickness of 1.8 mm and filling ratio of 15.0 wt.%.Furthermore,the possible EM attenuation mechanism had been proposed.The results of this work would be helpful for developing RGO-based 3D composites as lightweight,thin and highly efficient EM wave absorbers.

文摘A series of Gd-doped Li-Ni ferrites with the formula of LiNi0.5GdxFe2-xO4 where x = 0.00 - 0.08 in steps of 0.02, were prepared by thermolysis of oxalate precursors obtained by rheological phase reaction. The structure, morphology, and the magnetic properties of the samples were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). A single spinel phase was obtained in the range of x = 0.00 - 0.04. The lattice parameters of the Gd-doped samples were larger than that of pure Li-Ni ferrite, and increased in the range of 0.00 ≤ x ≤ 0.04, then decreased up to x = 0.08, because of the formation of the secondary phase (Gd- FeO3). All samples were spheric particles with an average size of about 100 nm, but agglomerated to some extent. The hysteresis loops indicated that the saturation magnetization decreased gradually with increasing Gd content, while the variation of coercivity was related to the microstructure of the Gd-doped samples.
