Abstract
In the present work, polycrystalline Y-type Ba0.5Sr1.5Co2−xZnxFe12O22 (X = 0, 0.5, 1 & 2) hexa-ferrites prepared by the sol-gel auto combustion method are investigated by x-ray diffraction (XRD), 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy (MS) and magnetization measurements. XRD data confirms the single-phase formation for x = 0 and 0.5; however, with further increase in Zn concentration secondary phases are observed. The in-field Mössbauer data measured at low temperature (5K) indicates that there is a re-distribution of Fe3+ ions in the studied samples, with the substituted Zn2+ preferentially going to 6CIV, 6CIV ∗ sites.
