Microwave electromagnetic and absorbing properties of Dy~(3+) doped MnZn ferrites

Dy3+ doped Mn-Zn ferrites Mn0.3Zn0.7Fe2-xDyxO4(x=0,0.01,0.02,0.03,0.04)were prepared by the conventional solid-state reaction.The crystal structure,surface morphology and electromagnetic properties of the calcined samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis(XRD),scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and network analyzer(Agilent 8722ET).All the XRD patterns showed the single phase of the spinel-type ferrite without other intermediate when x≤0.03.The average crystallite size was about 44?56 nm.The mi...
