Preparation and investigation of bismuth substituted yttrium iron garnet (Bi-YIG) Nano powders via citrate-nitrat auto combustion method

In this work, we have prepared BixY3-xFe5O12 nano-particles(x=0,1) with crystallite sizes in the range of 30 to 40 nm by citrate-nitrat auto combustion method and subsequent heat treatments. Oxidant / fuel ratios were adjusted in 0.83. Synthesis temperature; phase composition, bismuth content, crystalline structures morphological properties is studied in detail by using X-ray diffraction (XRD),FT IR spectroscopy, differential thermal analysis (TG-DSC)
