Magnetic properties of Cr3+ substituted Li–Sb ferrites

The magnetic properties, such as initial permeability and hysteresis loop properties of the chromium substituted Li–Sb ferrite system have been investigated. The SEM micrographs reveal the microstructure of the samples. The initial permeability is observed to decrease with the increase of chromium concentration. Frequency variation of permeability indicates that for all samples the resonance peak due to domain wall oscillations is at a frequency above 15 MHz. The hysteresis loop parameters have been calculated from the hysteresis loop studies. The magnetic parameters are observed to decrease with higher level of substitution.
