【 摘 要 】

Noncollinear spin systems with magnetically induced ferroelectricity from changes in spiral magnetic ordering have attracted significant interest in recent research due to their remarkable magnetoelectric effects with promising applications. Single phase multiferroics are of great interest for these new multifunctional devices, being Y-type hexaferrites good candidates, and among them the ZnY compounds due to their ordered magnetic behaviour over room temperature. Polycrystalline Y type hexaferrites with composition Ba0.5Sr1.5Zn2Fe12O22 (BSZFO) were sintered in 1050 degrees C-1250 degrees C temperature range. Transverse susceptibility measurements carried out on these BSZFO samples in the temperature range 80-350 K with DC fields up to +/- 5000 Oe reveal different behaviour depending on the sintering temperature. Sample sintered at 1250 degrees C is qualitatively different, suggesting a mixed Y and Z phase like CoY hexaferrites. Sintering at lower temperatures produce single phase Y-type, but the transverse susceptibility behaviour of the sample sintered at 1150 degrees C is shifted at temperatures 15 K higher. Regarding the DC field sweeps the observed behaviour is a peak that shifts to lower values with increasing temperature, and the samples corresponding to single Y phase exhibit several maxima and minima in the 250 K-330 K range at low DC applied field as a result of the magnetic field induced spin transitions in this compound.
