Mr. Salem et al., THERMOPHYSICAL STUDIES ON THE SUBSTITUTION OF AL3+ IN GALLIUM IRON GARNETS, Journal of Materials Science, 29(11), 1994, pp. 2939-2943
Gallium iron garnet and its Al3+-substituted derivatives have been pre
pared and sintered under oxygen pressure. On these materials, measurem
ents were taken of infrared spectra, X-ray diffraction analysis, diffe
rential thermal analysis and the temperature dependence of d.c. electr
ical conductivity. The results obtained are explained, interpreted, co
mpared and discussed in detail on the basis of structural conformation
and the conduction mechanism prevailing.
