Title: Evolution With Temperature of the Magnetic Anisotropy of Ba Ferrite Particles
Abstract: The magnetic anisotropy of pure and Co/Ti-doped Ba ferrite particles is analyzed through the evaluation of the dependence on temperature of the constants of magnetocrystalline and shape anisotropy, which both are present in the platelet-like Ba ferrite particles with hexagonal structure. In undoped Ba ferrite, the magnetocrystalline anisotropy constant is predominant on the conflicting shape anisotropy constant at all temperatures, which indicates that the magnetic anisotropy is uniaxial, with preferred direction for the magnetization along the c axis of the hexagonal particles. In doped particles, where the magnetocrystalline anisotropy is weakened by the ionic substitutions, while at high temperatures the magnetic anisotropy is substantially uniaxial with c as axis of easy magnetization, when the temperature decreases, the shape anisotropy constant becomes larger than the magnetocrystalline anisotropy constant, and consequently, the magnetic anisotropy is not uniaxial, but it presents multiple preferred directions for the magnetization
