Synthesis of Y3Fe5O12 via Thermal Decomposition of Polynuclear Coordination Compounds

Article Preview

Abstract:

The possibility of obtaining yttrium iron garnet (Y3Fe5O12, YIG) through thermal decomposition of two coordination compounds with malate and gluconate anions as ligands, (NH4)6[Y3Fe5(C4O5H4)6(C4O5H3)6]·12H2O and (NH4)6[Y3Fe5(C6O7H10)6(C6O7H9)6]·8H2O. A mixture of simple oxides, namely Y2O3 and α-Fe2O3, orthorhombic ferrite YFeO3 and small amounts Y3Fe5O12, is generated from the thermolysis of malate compound, while a clean Y3Fe5O12 is obtained from gluconate compound.
