Study on the electromagnetic behavior evaluation of Y3+ doped cobalt nanocrystals synthesized via co-precipitation route

Yttrium doped CoFe2O4 nanocrystalline (48-34 nm) ferrites were synthesized by co-precipitation technique. About two fold increase in coercivity was observed for CoFe2O4+x Y2O3 (x=5 wt%) nanocrystalline ferrites.
