Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Disclosed herein are embodiments of composite hexagonal ferrite materials formed from a combination of Y phase and Z phase hexagonal ferrite materials. Advantageously, embodiments of the material can have a high resonant frequency as well as a high permeability. In some embodiments, the materials can be useful for magnetodielectric antennas.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A composite hexagonal ferrite material, the material comprising: a base y-phase hexagonal ferrite composition; and a doped-in z phase hexagonal ferrite material having a formula Sr 3-x-y Ba x Na y Co 2-y Sc y Fe 24 O 41 , 0<x<3, 0<y<1.5, forming a composite hexagonal ferrite material having a Q value of greater than 15 at 1 GHz. 2. The composite hexagonal ferrite material of claim 1 wherein the composite hexagonal ferrite material includes two phases. 3. The composite hexagonal ferrite material of claim 1 wherein the composite hexagonal ferrite material has a Q value of greater than 20 at 1 GHz. 4. The composite hexagonal ferrite material of claim 1 wherein the composite hexagonal ferrite material has a real permeability of between 3 and 7 at 1 GHz. 5. The composite hexagonal ferrite material of claim 1 wherein the composite hexagonal ferrite material has a real permeability of greater than 6 at 1 GHz. 6. The composite hexagonal ferrite material of claim 1 wherein the composite hexagonal ferrite material has an imaginary permeability of less than 1 at 1 GHz. 7. The composite hexagonal ferrite material of claim 1 wherein the composite hexagonal ferrite material has a quality factor of greater than 15 at 1 GHz. 8. The composite hexagonal ferrite material of claim 1 wherein the y-phase hexagonal ferrite composition includes Sr 1.6 Na 0.4 Sc 0.4 Co 1.6 Fe 12 O 22 . 9. A method of forming a composite hexagonal ferrite material, the method comprising combining a y-phase hexagonal composition at least partially with a z phase hexagonal ferrite material having a formula Sr 3-x-y Ba x Na y Co 2-y Sc y Fe 24 O 41 , 0<x<3, 0<y<1.5, thereby forming a composite hexagonal ferrite material having a Q value of greater than 15 at 1 GHz. 10. The method of claim 9 further including doping the composite hexagonal ferrite material with indium or zirconium to reduce strontium. 11. The method of claim 9 wherein the composite hexagonal ferrite material has a Q value of greater than about 20 at 1 GHz. 12. The method of claim 9 wherein the composite hexagonal ferrite material has a real permeability of between 3 and 7 at 1 GHz. 13. The method of claim 9 wherein the y-phase hexagonal ferrite composition includes Sr 1.6 Na 0.4 Sc 0.4 Co 1.6 Fe 12 O 22 . 14. An antenna formed from a composite hexagonal ferrite material, the antenna comprising: a base y-phase hexagonal ferrite composition; and a doped-in z phase hexagonal ferrite material having a formula Sr 3-x-y Ba x Na y Co 2-y Sc y Fe 24 O 41 , 0<x<3, 0<y<1.5, forming a composite hexagonal ferrite material having a Q value of greater than 15 at 1 GHz. 15. The antenna of claim 14 wherein the antenna is part of a wireless device. 16. The antenna of claim 14 wherein the antenna is part of a tablet. 17. The antenna of claim 14 wherein the antenna is usable at frequencies of 1 GHz and above. 18. The antenna of claim 14 wherein the composite hexagonal ferrite material has a Q value of greater than about 20 at 1 GHz. 19. The antenna of claim 14 wherein the composite hexagonal ferrite material has a real permeability of between 3 and 7 at 1 GHz. 20. The antenna of claim 14 wherein the y-phase hexagonal ferrite composition includes Sr 1.6 Na 0.4 Sc 0.4 Co 1.6 Fe 12 O 22 .
