Abstract
- The magnetic properties of nanocrystalline cobalt ferrite could be tuned with substituting small amount of non-magnetic rare earth cation at Fe site in cobalt ferrite. The variation in magnetic parameter of samples could also be obtained by measuring its anhysteretic magnetization curve without tailoring its chemical composition. The magnetic parameters such as coercivity, remanent magnetization and saturation magnetization critically depend upon different values of external magnetic fields. In the present study, the anhysteretic magnetization curve of the samples CoFe2-xLaxO4 (x=0.025, 0.05, 0.075 and 0.1) has been recorded and response of coercivity to different maximum values of applied field has been investigated. It has been observed that the response of coercivity to different maximum values of applied field shows non-linear behavior. The analysis of the response of coercivity to different values of applied field in low field regime has been carried out with the help of Rayleigh laws. The analysis of the plot yields significant information about magnetic anisotropy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
