Synergistic tailoring of structural, optical, dielectric, and magnetic responses in Ce/Ni- and Nd/Ni-co-doped M-type BaFe12O19 nano-compositions
M-type BaFe12O19 is a technologically important ferrite owing to its large uniaxial anisotropy, chemical robustness, and relevance to magnetic and high-frequency devices. Here, pristine BaFe12O19 (BF), Ba0.97Ce0.03Fe11.97Ni0.03O19 (CNBF), and Ba0.97Nd0.03Fe11.97Ni0.03O19 (NNBF) nanocompositions were synthesized by a so...
