Magnetic and microwave absorbing properties of PrFeO3 ceramic prepared by different methods
To investigate the magnetic and microwave absorption properties of PrFeO 3 ceramic, the traditional solid-state reaction and sol–gel methods were used. The results show that only an orthorhombic crystal structure was detected by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. Interestingly, heat treatment can greatly improve the coercivity of PrFeO 3 ceramic and thus change the magnetic properties from antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic. The high correlation between the magnetization parameters and bonding characteristics indicated that signifificant contracting of the Fe 3+ O c 2− bonds and decrease in Fe 3+ O d 2− Fe 3+ linkage angles were the main origins of the strong ferromagnetism in the PrFeO 3 ceramic. The PrFeO 3 sample prepared by sol–gel method has good reflection loss. When the simulated thickness is 2 mm, the reflection loss reaches −36.87 dB at 15.92 GHz. The preparation process of the sol–gel method is simple and can be used to synthesize single phase at low temperature, but it is only suitable for the synthesis and performance testing of single phase. The solid-state reation method can be used to determine the phase relationship and phase properties, but it requires high temperature and long annealing time. The experimental results show that the sol–gel method is more suitable for the study of material properties. These results demonstrate the potential application of PrFeO 3 ceramics in magnetic materials and microwave absorbing field.
