Abstract
Effect of Ag on the electromagnetic properties of low temperature sintered NiCuZn ferrite has been studied with special reference to the micro- and nano-structure. It is shown that As accelerates the densification of NiCuZn ferrite and promotes the dissociation of Cu from the ferrite, which causes discontinuous grain growth. Silver addition to NiCuZn ferrite brings about not only distortion of lattice near the grain boudaries but also the compression of sintered body.
