In this study, the synthesis and characterization of a dysprosium-doped samarium iron oxide nano powder/polydimethylsiloxane (Dy-SmFeO/PDMS) nano-composite are described. The sol-gel citrate method was employed for the synthesis, yielding highly polycrystalline nano powders with a polymorphic distribution, as revealed by X-ray diffraction and Rietveld analysis. Raman spectroscopy was utilized to investigate the chemistry of the nano powders. Notably, the readings obtained using a vibrating sample magnetometer highlighted the intriguing ferromagnetic-to-antiferromagnetic coupling behavior of the samples. The field-emission scanning electron microscopy analysis indicated that the orthorhombic crystal surfaces were uniformly encapsulated by PDMS. Furthermore, a dynamic mechanical analysis was conducted under the influence of a magnetic field (1000 mT) revealed the excellent mechanical stability of the composite. This research highlights the potential of the Dy-SmFeO/PDMS composite as a promising magnetic material with desirable properties, opening up possibilities for various applications in fields such as micro-magnetic devices, sensors, spin valves, and actuators. |
