Abstract

The magnetic and magnetostriction properties of Z-type cobalt-doped barium hexaferrite with perpendicular c-axis crystallographic texture are presented. The hexaferrite was utilized as a component in Co₂Z/lead magnesium niobate-lead titanate multiferroic heterostructures whose tunability of permeability with electric field in terms of ferromagnetic resonance shift was supported by experiments and theoretical calculation. A permeability change of 16% was measured by an induced magnetic field of 38 Oe under the application of 6 kV/cm of electric field. These findings lay the foundation for the application of Z-type hexaferrites in tunable rf and microwave devices valued for sending, receiving, and manipulating electromagnetic signals.
