Composition dependence of discontinuous magnetization in Li-Ti ferrites

Abstract
The potential difference VB and the frequency FB of Barkhausen jumps were measured in Li0.5+0.5xTixFe2.5-1.5xO4 (where xB decreases with increasing Ti content. For each composition VB shows a maximum value (VB max) corresponding to a certain value of the magnetizing current (Im). VB max and Im decrease with increasing Ti content. The sample with x=0.1 causes the eddy currents to decrease by about 67% relative to a sample with x=0.0. The sintering temperature has a considerable effect on VB.
