Ni 0.26 Cu 0.22 Zn 0.52 Fe 2 O 4 ferrites doped with different Bi 2 O 3 contents (0–2.0 wt% in intervals of 0.5 wt%) were successfully prepared by conventional solid-state reaction method at 920 °C. The phase composition, microstructure, and magnetic properties, especially gyromagnetic properties of these samples were systematically investigated. First, X-ray diffraction patterns demonstrated that all samples exhibit a single spinel phase. Moreover, scanning electron microscopy image analysis revealed that Bi 2 O 3 can significantly promote grain growth and densification of NiCuZn ferrites. In terms of magnetism, the compact and uniform sample doped with 1.0 wt% Bi 2 O 3 possessed low coercivity (H C = ∼193.60 A/m) and high saturation magnetization (4π M S = ∼3959 Gs). More importantly, due to the grain growth and reduction of porosity, the ferromagnetic resonance linewidth (Δ H) of the samples decreased from 288.9 Oe to 218.8 Oe. These results suggested that Bi 2 O 3 is an effective sintering aid to enhance the gyromagnetic properties of ferrite materials used in microwave devices. • Microstructure of NiCuZn ferrite was improved by Bi 2 O 3 doping. Grain growth and uniformity were obviously promoted. • Magnetic properties, including 4π M s and H c , were optimized by Bi 2 O 3 doping. • Ferromagnetic resonance linewidth (Δ H) was decreased significantly by Bi 2 O 3 doping.
