Abstract
The effect of temperature variation on the magnetoelasticproperties of the CoAlxFe2−xO4 system (for x=0.0, 0.2, 05, and 0.7) has been studied. Substitution of Al3+ for Fe3+ was found to lower the Curie temperature of the samples and to change the lattice parameter. The magnitude of peak to peak magnetostriction, strain sensitivity, magnetomechanical hysteresis, and relative contributions of λ111 and λ100 to the resultant magnetostriction were found to vary with temperature. The results show the possibility of tailoring the magnetoelasticproperties of highly magnetostrictive cobalt ferrite at temperatures of interest by cation substitution.
