A novel concept of enhancing the magnetostrictive strain of sintered cobalt ferrite by making self-composites from nanosized and bulk powders with different particle sizes of the same material as components is reported. The self-composites give higher magnetostriction coefficient and strain derivative when compared to the sintered products obtained from the individual powders. The individual components give a maximum magnetostriction up to similar to 310 ppm, whereas up to similar to 370 ppm is obtained for a two-component system consisting of powders of two different sizes. On the other hand, a three-component self-composite made from starting powders of 3 nm, 40 nm and &amp;gt;1 mu m give very high magnetostriction of similar to 400 ppm at 800 kA/m, suitable for making devices.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5.008</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mohaideen, Kamal Khaja</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Joy, Pattayil Alias</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">High magnetostriction coefficient of Mn substituted cobalt ferrite sintered from nanocrystalline powders and after magnetic field annealing</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Current Applied Physics</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cobalt ferrite</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Magnetic field annealing</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Magnetostriction</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mn substitution</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nanocrystalline</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">OCT</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PO BOX 211, 1000 AE AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">13</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1697-1701</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Magnetostriction characteristics of Mn substituted cobalt ferrite, CoFe2-xMnxO4 (0 &amp;lt;= x &amp;lt;= 0.3), sintered from nanocrystalline powders of average particle size of similar to 4 nm have been studied. Larger value of magnetostriction at lower magnetic field is achieved after substitution of Mn for Fe. The maximum value of magnetostriction coefficient is not much affected and the slope of the magnetostriction is increased with increasing Mn content. Higher maximum value of magnetostriction coefficient (lambda) of 234 ppm comparable to that of the unsubstituted composition with larger strain derivative (d lambda/dH) is obtained for x = 0.2 in CoFe2-xMnxO4. The magnetostriction coefficient is increased to 262 ppm with further enhancement in the strain derivative after annealing the sintered compact at 300 degrees C in a magnetic field of 400 kA/m for 30 min.

Nanoparticles of cobalt ferrite with different sizes in the range 3-80 nm are synthesized by an autocombustion method using metal nitrates and glycine. It has been observed that the initial particle size of the starting powders has a strong influence on the magnetostrictive behavior of sintered cobalt ferrite. Highest magnetostrictive strain and strain derivative are obtained for sintered ferrite derived from nanoparticles of size &amp;lt; 5 nm. The results show that higher magnetostriction coefficient for sintered cobalt ferrite can be achieved by compacting nanocrystalline particles of very small size. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V.

It is observed that the magnetostriction coefficient as well as the slope of the magnetostriction as a function of field depends on the microstructure of the sintered product. There is a direct correlation between the magnetostriction characteristics and density as well as porosity of the sintered products. Intragranular pores are found to be strongly influencing the magnetostriction characteristics. Similarly, correlation is found between the magnetostriction parameters and the Curie temperature, indicating the role of cation distribution which affects the magnetic anisotropy. Sintering the compacts made from nanocrystalline powders at 1450 degrees C for a very short duration is found to give high values of magnetostriction coefficient. However, higher values of magnetostriction at low magnetic fields are obtained for samples sintered at lower temperatures for longer duration and having relatively lower density.
