Abstract:
Al substituted M type Ca hexaferrite with composition CaAlxFe12-xO19 (x = 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8) were synthesized by sol gel auto combustion method. The prepared samples were characterized by XRD, SEM, FTIR and VSM. X ray diffraction study shows that the with increasing aluminum ion concentration lattice parameter a decreases from 5.87 to 5.83 while the lattice parameter c decreases from 22.15 Å to 22.00 Å are well within the range of M type of hexaferrite. The crystallite size of the particles decreases from 74.36nm to 62.12nm are suitable for magnetic recording. Morphology of the particles from SEM images was hexagonal platelet. The absorption band between 580 and 440cm-1 in FTIR confirm the formation of hexaferrite. The magnetic properties of the samples changes with Al ion substitution make the material suitable for low density longitudinal and perpendicular magnetic recording.

03:02Colors and Magnetism
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human...

Most monatomic ions behave as charged spheres, and their attraction for ions of opposite charge is the same in every direction. Consequently, stable structures for ionic compounds result (1) when ions of one charge are surrounded by as many ions as possible of the opposite...
