Structural and magnetic properties of yttrium iron garnet (YIG) and yttrium aluminum iron garnet (YAlG) nanoferrite via sol-gel synthesis

The structural and magnetic properties of yttrium iron garnet (YIG) and yttrium aluminum iron garnet (Y3AlxFe5−xO12, YAIG) (x = 0.2, 0.6, 1, 1.4, 1.8, and 2.2) nanoparticles were investigated. The samples were prepared via auto combustion sol-gel technique, using citric acid as chelating agent and f...
