Effect of High Zn Concentration on the Structural, Electrical, and Magnetic Properties of Zn-Doped Yttrium Iron Garnet Nanoparticles.

ABSTRACT: Current-induced magnetoelectric (ME) effect offers the potential for broadband, low-power tunable microwave devices. While yttrium iron garnet (YIG) is the most used ferrite due to its superior magnetic properties, its high-quality dielectric properties hinder its potential tuning with an electric current. To increase YIG's conductivity, we investigated Zn²⁺-doped YIG nanoparticles and nanocomposites (Y₃Fe_5-2x ³⁺Fe _x ⁴⁺Zn _x O₁₂) synthesized using the sol-gel method within a broad concentration range of dopants (0 < x < 1.0). Herein, for the first time, we report the effect of high-level Zn doping on the electrical conductivity and ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) of a YIG nanoco
