Microstructural and electromagnetic properties of YIG ferrites, (Y, Ca)-(Fe, V, In, Al)-O for Isolator/Circulator were investigated with the sintering temperature. YIG ferrites of $Y_{2.1}Ca_{0.9}Fe_{4.4}V_{0.5}In_{0.05}Al_{0.05}O_{12}$ were fabricated by sintering at $1300^{\circ}C$, $1330^{\circ}C$, $1350^{\circ}C$, $1370^{\circ}C$. Crystallographic and microstructural properties were measured using XRD and SEM. Saturation magnetization$(4{\pi}M_s)$ were measured using VSM, and FMR(Ferromagnetic Resonance) experiment was conducted to measure ferromagnetic resonance line width$({\Delta}H)$. Microwave characteristics of YIG ferrites were measured using a Network Analyzer. The YIG ferrite of $Y_{2.1}Ca_{0.9}Fe_{4.4}V_{0.5}In_{0.05}Al_{0.05}O_{12}$, sintered at $1350^{\circ}C$, showed higher density, saturation magnetization and lower ferromagnetic resonance line width than those sintered at any other temperature.

In this study, we investigated the variation of microstructural and electromagnetic properties of YIG ferrites for Isolator/Circulator application with the sintering temperature and Zr addition. The composition of the ferrites was Y$_{2.1}$Ca$_{0.9}$Fe$_{4.4-x}$V$_{0.5}$In$_{0.05}$Al$_{0.05}$Zr$_{x}$O$_{12}$ with x=0, 0.05, 0.1 and 0.2. The YIG ferrites were prepared by the conventional ceramic sintering process. The Zr-substituted YIG ferrite, Y$_{2.1}$ Ca$_{0.9}$Fe$_{4.4-x}$V$_{0.5}$In$_{0.05}$Al$_{0.05}$ Zr$_{x}$O$_{12}$ showed the highest saturation magnetization (1097 gauss) at x=0.1. The microwave properties were shown as isolation of 18.60 dB and insertion loss of 0.45 dB at x=0.2. Additionally, Zr-substitution was effective in decreasing ferromagnetic resonance linewidth with Zr content.

YIG(Yttrium Iron Garnet) is one of the most widely used ferrites for microwave telecommunication. It used as a passive devices such as isolators and circulators. In order to reduce the insertion losses of these passive devices, it is very important to reduce magnetic loss of the ferrites. In general, the magnetic losses of ferrites is closely related to the microstructure of the ceramics. In the sintering of YIG, pores are easily trapped in grains and grain boundaries. These pores cause to increase magnetic losses of the sinterted bodies. In this paper, the effect of the $SiO_2$ addition on the microstructure was discussed. Increasing the $SiO_2$ addition, the grain size was reduced, which means that added acts as a grain-growth inhibitor. During the sintering, $SiO_2$ settled down on the grain boundaries, and drag the grain growth. Therefore, there is enough time for pores to move out. The relative density of YIG sintered at $1350^{\circ}C$ with 1 mol% $SiO_2$ addition was 99.6%. $\Delta$H of these samples was under 50 Oe.

Yittrium Iron Garnet(YIG) has been used as an important material in the circulator/isolator which is used in RF communication system, mobile phone, adn satellite broadcasting, etc. In this study, we investigated the microstructural and magnetic properties of YIG ferrites with the sintering temperature and additives. We fabricated the YIG ferrites substituted with Ca, In, V by the traditional ceramic sintering method at 1250$\^{C}$, 1275$\^{C}$, 1300$\^{C}$ and 1325$\^{C}$. Powders were granulated by using a spray dryer. Crystallographic and microstructural properties were measured by using XRD and SEM. Magnetic properties were measured by using a VSM for saturation magnetization (4$\pi$M$\_$s/) and FMR (Ferromagnetic Resonance) experiment for ferromagnetic resonance line width (△H). The YIG ferrite, Y$\_$1.6/Ca$\_$1.4/Fe$_4$V$\_$0.7/In$\_$0.3/O$\_$12/, sintered at 1300$\^{C}$, showed higher saturation magnetization and lower ferromagnetic resonance line width than any other sintering temperatures.

The generation of the intermodulation noises in microwave isolators has been studied in relation to the characteristics of YIG ferrites designed for this application. We have investigated the influences of porosity and crystalline anisotropy related to the magnetic loss, which causes the generation of intermodulation signals. The power dependence of the intermodulation power level is stressed as the crystalline anisotropy decreases. These results are consistent with the nonlinear effects of a single normal mode before the excitation of the spin-waves. It also appears that this power level is proportional to the magnitude of dc bias magnetic field.
