POLYCRYSTALLINE Ni, Zn AND Ni-Zn FERRITE TARGETS FOR PLASMA LASER DEPOSITION TECHNIQUE

Abstract

[[abstract]]Ni, Zn and Ni-Zn ferrites targets to by used in pulsed laser deposition of thin ferrite films were prepared by a conventional ceramic technique. The properties of the ferrites were evaluated from XRD, SEM and EDX data. The electrical and magnetical characteristics of the investigated specimens are interpreted in terms of the role played by the sintering condition on the microstructure and on stoichiometry
