Abstract
The Z-type Sr3Co2Fe24O41 hexaferrite constitutes a family of relatively new materials, which offers potential technological applications in the spintronics industry due to its magnetoelectric properties at room temperature. In this work, synthesis of the Sr3Co2Fe24O41 material following both citrate and Pechini methods is reported. X-ray diffraction patterns evidence that the obtained samples crystallize in hexagonal structures, belonging to the P63/mmc (#194) space group. Micrographs of scanning electron microscopy reveal the hexagonal characteristic of grains in the homogeneous and strongly densified surface. Measurements of magnetization as a function of applied fields show the ferromagnetic hysteretic behavior of material. Low-temperature curves of susceptibility (50 K < T < 350 K) exhibit irreversibility behavior, which is characteristic of disorder effects. An anomaly takes place at T = 230 K due to the occurrence of a crossover from a conical anisotropy (T < 230 K) to planar anisotropy (230 K > T > TC). A drastic change in the thermogravimetric curve at T = 683 K is attributed to the loss of magnetic force caused by the transition between ferromagnetic and paramagnetic states.
