Abstract
A detailed study of the properties of nanocomposites based on Cd3As2 and MnAs with different concentrations of the magnetic phase and the effect of synthesis methods on the size of the crystallites and magnetic particles formed was carried out. A noticeable difference was found in the electrical conductivity and magnetic properties of such composites. There was a direct correlation between magnetization and concentrations of magnetic phases and magnetic particle sizes. The SEM images showed the formation of networks of magnetic particles distributed inside the matrix, and the distance between the particles ranges between 0.1–1 μm. It was found that there is a direct relationship between magnetization and the Curie point and the coercive forces. The sample with the lowest magnetization showed a sharp drop in the coercive force to 16 Oe.
