A general review is given on effects and controls of grain size, so far documented, concerning both soft and microwave ferrites, while referring to the findings of ceramists as well as to the representative models available for initial permeability spectra and for microwave parameters, such as ΔHk and ΔHeff. As an illustrative example, a briefing is given on narrow linewidth CaV-garnet families, finding an ever-increasing usage, with reduced loss resulting from the grain size being intentionally increased.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
