Single-Domain Hard Ferromagnetic M-SrFe Nanoparticles for Magnetic Data Storage

Abstract:

Single-domain M-type Strontium Ferrite nanoparticles are prepared by the co-precipitation method. The crystallite size of the M-SrFe Nps is 58.1 nm, as determined by the XRD pattern. The SEM micrographs reveal the hexagonal morphology. M-SrFe Nps is depicted in EDS analysis. According to VSM characterization, the sample is a hard magnetic material with high coercivity. With its outstanding magnetic characteristics, hexaferrite is typically employed in permanent magnetic materials and recording devices. The band gap energy is determined to be 1.95 eV from the UV-DRS reflectance data using the Kubelka-Munk plot. The absorbed wavelength with the highest intensity peak in PL analysis is 629.9 nm. The TG-DTA investigations support the remarkable thermal stability of M-SrFe Nps. The resistivity of the sample, 0.312 Ωm is calculated using the four-probe method.
