Abstract
Yttrium iron garnet (YIG) nano-powders were successfully synthesized by microwave-induced combustion process. The as-prepared YIG powders were annealed at different temperature and investigated by XRD, SEM, and VSM. The as-received YIG powder shows the formation of garnet structure with saturation magnetization (M s) of 12 emu/g, whereas upon annealing at 825 °C for 2 h, the saturation magnetization increases to 27 emu/g. The as-received yttrium iron garnet powders annealed at several temperatures revealed that the particle size ranged from 65 to 90 nm. Moreover, the linewidth of magnetic resonance peak (ΔH), complex permeability, and loss tangent of sintered YIG ceramic are also examined in this study.
