Improvement in microwave absorbance has been investigated by insertion of a periodic air cavity in rubber composites filled with magnetic powders. A mixture of $Co_2Z$ hexagonal ferrite and Fe powders were used as the absorbent fillers in silicone rubber matrix. The complex permeability and complex permittivity of the magnetic composites were measured by reflection/transmission technique. In the grid-type magnetic absorbers, the equivalent permeability (${\mu}_{eq}$) and permittivity (${\varepsilon}_{eq}$) are calculated as a function of air volume rate (K) on the basis of effective medium theory. Reduction in the material parameters (especially, dielectric permittivity and magnetic loss) has been estimated with the increase of K. Plotting the ${\mu}_{eq}$ and ${\varepsilon}_{eq}$ on the solution map of wave-impedance matching, wide bandwidth microwave absorbance has been predicted in the magnetic composites with an optimum value of K.

Sr substituted materials for some barium in M-type barium ferrite powder and Co-Ti substituted Sr-Ba hexagonal ferrite powder were prepared by citrate sol-gel method and 2 MOE sol-gel method these hexaferrite particles were reduced for 1hr in the hydrogen gas. The reduction temperatures were varied in the range of 250 $^{\circ}C$ to 500 $^{\circ}C$. X-ray diffraction patterns were measured using diffractometer with Cu $K_{\Alhpa}$ radiation. Mossbauer absorption spectra were measured with a constant acceleration spectrometer. We have focused on studying the origin of increasing $M_s$ by M$\"{o}$ssbauer spectroscopy. Ferrite particles which were sintered at 105$0^{\circ}C$ were found to be typical magnetoplumbite structure and single phase. XRD patterns with varying the reduction temperatures in $Sr_{0.5}Ba_{0.5}Fe_{10}O_{19}$ indicates ferrites particles become composite hexaferrites containing $\alpha$-Fe at T_{red}=350 \;$^{\circ}C$$. On the otherhand, it was found that $Co^{2+}$ ions and $Ti^{4+}$ ions in $Sr_{0.7}Ba_{0.3}Fe_{10}CoTiO_{19}$ prevent from changing $Fe^{3+}$ ions to $\alpha$-Fe during the $H_2$ reduction. Comparing Mossbauer results with XRD results, we have determined most of $\alpha$-Fe are reduced from $4f_{vi}$ sites and 12k sites of $Fe^{3+}$ ions. These $\alpha$-Fe phase bring the induced anisotropy and increase saturation magnetization $M_s$.TEX>.

Y-type hexagonal ferrites$(Ba_{2}Me_{2}Fe_{12}O_{22}:Me=transition metal)$ have promising electromagnetic properties in GHz range. Co and Zn are good candidates for the transition metal. To understand their role on the properties, it is thus necessary to study the ion(s) distribution in that complex Y-type hexagonal ferrite structure. The authors report Mossbauer spectroscopic results from very reliable samples, which has been extensively characterized by chemical analysis, Rietveld analysis of X-ray diffraction patterns, and magnetic property measurements. Analyzing two samples, $Co_{2}Y$ and $Co_{1.6}Zn_{0.4}Y$, conclusions are made as follow: (1) Co ions prefer the tetrahedral interstitial sites in the S-block $(6c_{IV})$ and the octahedral sites $(18h_{VI})$ at the interface of S- and T-block. (2) Partial substitution of Co with Zn (within the experimental range) does not disturb the Fe distribution.

In this study, the magnetic(static and high-frequency) and microwave absorbing properties have been investigated in Ru-Co substituted M-hexaferrites($BaFe_{12-2x}Ru_xCo_xO_{19}$). The powders and sintered specimens were prepared by conventional ceramic processing technique. With the calcined powders, the composite specimens were prepared using the silicone rubber as a matrix material. The substitution ratio of Ru-Co to obtain in-plane magnetic anisotropy, thus having the minimum coercivity, is much smaller (about x=0.3) than the previously reported Ti-Co substituted specimen. Owing to this low substitution, the specimen has a large value of saturation magnetization($M_s$=65 emu/g). Ferromagnetic resonance behavior and microwave absorbing frequency band is strongly influnced by the coercvity which can be controlled by Ru-Co substitution ratio. It is found that the M-hexaferrites with planar magnetic anisotropy by doping Ru-Co in both sintered and composite form have superior microwave absorbing properties in GHz frequency range.

M-type hexagonal BaF $e_{12-2x}$ $Co_{x}$ $Ti_{x}$ $O_{19}$ (0$\leq$x$\leq$1.0) ferrite powders prepared by a sol-gel method. The crystallographic and magnetic properties were characterized with a x-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetry (TG), differential thermal analysis (DIA), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and Mossbauer spectroscopy. The result of XRD measurements show that the a and c lattice parameters increase with increasing x from $\alpha$=5.882 and c=23.215 $\AA$ for $\chi$=0.0, to $\alpha$=5.895 and c=23.295 $\AA$ for $\chi$=1.0. From the Mossbauer results, the $Co^{2+}$- $Ti^{4+}$ site occupancies have been affected the changes in the magnetization and in the coercivity. The Curie temperature linearly decreases with increasing $Co^{2+}$- $Ti^{4+}$ concentration x.

Hexagonal barium ferrite ($BaFe_{12}O_{19}$) nano-particles have been successfully synthesised using selfassembly method. Diethyleneamine (DEA) surfactant was used to fabricate the micelle structure of Ba-DEA complex under various DEA concentrations. $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ powders were synthesized with addition Fe ions to Ba-DEA complex and then heat treated at temperature range of 800-1000${\circ}C$. The molar ratio of Ba/DEA and heat-treatment temperature significantly affected the magnetic properties and morphology of $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ powders. $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ powders synthesized with Ba/DEA molar ratio of 1 and heat-treated at 1000${\circ}C$ for 1 hour showed the coercive forces (iHc) of 4.84 kOe with average crystal size of about 200 nm.

Hexagonal Ba-ferrites are widely suggested as materials for small antennas. In this paper, the sintering behavior and magneto-electric properties of $Ba_3Co_{2-2x}Mn_{2x}Fe_{24}O_{41}$ ($0.1{\leq}x{\leq}0.5$) ceramics were investigated for small antenna application. All samples of $Ba_3Co_{2-2x}Mn_{2x}Fe_{24}O_{41}$ ceramics were prepared by the solid-state reaction method and sintered at $1250^{\circ}C$. From the XRD patterns of the sintered $Ba_3Co_{2-2x}Mn_{2x}Fe_{24}O_{41}$ceramics, the Z-type phases were found to be the main phases. The real part of permittivity and permeability of the $Ba_3Co_{2-2x}Mn_{2x}Fe_{24}O_{41}$ceramics decreased with frequency. On the other hand, loss tangents of permittivity and permeability tended to behave opposite to real part of permittivity and permeability. The real part of permeability was affected by Mn additions. The real part of permittivity, the loss tangent of permittivity and the real part of permeability, the loss tangent of permeability of $Ba_3Co_{0.2}Mn_{0.8}Fe_{24}O_{41}$ ceramics were 19.774, 0.176 and 15.183, 0.073, respectively, at 510 MHz. In order to investigate the effect of magneto-dielectric ceramics on antenna, PIFA (Planar Inverted F Antenna) was simulated with CST (Computer Simulation Technology). The operating frequency of antenna was decreased without considerable change of bandwidth by using the $Ba_3Co_{0.2}Mn_{0.8}Fe_{24}O_{41}$ ceramics as the carrier.

High magnetic field effects on the microstructure and magnetic properties of $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ hexaferrites synthesized hydrothermal method have been investigated. The obtained results indicate that the lattice constant decreases gradually as the magnetic field strength increases, which may be attributed to the lattice distortion resulted from the high magnetic field. Polycrystalline $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ samples prepared under magnetic field strength at zero and 5 T are single phase. It is found that application of external magnetic field during synthesis can induce orientated growth of the hexaferrite crystals along the easy magnetic axis. The magnetic properties can be effectively regulated by an application of high magnetic fields. It is observed that the $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ prepared under a 5 T magnetic field exhibits a higher room-temperature saturation magnetization (66.3 emu/g) than that of the sample (43.6 emu/g) obtained without magnetic field. The results can be explained as the enhanced crystalline, improvement of $Fe^{3+}$ ions occupancy and the oriented growth induced by the external magnetic field. The growing orientation of particles gives rise to increased coercivity due to the enhancement in shape anisotropy. It is expected that an application of magnetic field during the formation of magnetic nanoparticles could be a promising technique to modify magnetic properties with excellent performance.

In this study, hexagonal ferrite powder with chemical formula SrZn_2-xCo_xFe₁₆O₂₇ was synthesized by a solid-state reaction method and its electromagnetic (EM) wave absorption characteristics were evaluated in the frequency range of 0.1-18 GHz with absorber thickness range of 0 - 10 mm. Reflection loss (RL) affecting electromagnetic wave absorption performance was calculated based on the transmission line theory using measured complex permeabilities and permittivities. RL spectra were also directly measured for some samples. They were well matched with calculated results. High-frequency complex permeability characteristics were changed gradually according to the amount of Co substitution (x). The EM wave absorption frequency band could be tuned accordingly. Hexaferrite samples with x = 1.0, 1.25, and 1.5 exhibited remarkable maximum electromagnetic wave absorption performances with minimum RL (RL_min) lowered than -50 dB. They also showed a very broad frequency band (Δf > 10 GHz) in which more than 90% of the EM wave energy absorption occurred (RL ≤ -10 dB).
