En este trabajo se presenta el proceso de obtención de polvos cerámicos de hexaferrita de estroncio, SrFe12O19, por los métodos de síntesis Pechini y Combustión, variando parámetros como precursores de hierro, pH de solución y tratamiento térmico. La caracterización estructural de las muestras obtenidas se hizo mediante difracción de rayos X (DRX), que permitió asegurar la presencia de SrFe12O19 como fase única, y la caracterización morfológica se realizó con la técnica de microscopía electrónica (barrido y transmisión), determinando una estructura hexagonal y rango de tamaño de 200 a 300 nm.

In this work is reported the process of obtaining ceramic powders of strontium hexaferrite, SrFe12O19 by the methods of synthesis, Pechini and combustion, varying parameters such as iron precursors, pH of solution and heat treatment. X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy techniques were applied to evaluate the microstructure, composition and crystallite size of the SrFe12O19 samples, determining hexagonal structure size in the range of 200 to 300nm.

Using ab-initio calculation, we have computed different electronic parameters associated with the transport coefficients of graphite Bernal. Software CRYSTAL¹ was used with a Pople standard STO- 21G* basis set. Different hamiltonians were tested, choosing a restricted Hartree-Fock one, because it generated the best qualitative results. All graphites studied present a valence bandwidth near 0.60 a.u., in agreement with the literature. In hexagonal Bernal graphite the splitting of the valence P band was accentuated, and E F = -0.00140 a.u. The surface Fermi is located around the HKH edge of the first Brillouin zone. In general such surfaces present a central electron orbit of maximal size in the plane, which diminish in size when the z component of the <IMG SRC="http:/img/fbpe/mr/v5n2/11049s6.gif">vector moves in KH direction. Integrating on the surface Fermi calculates the time relaxation parallel and the time relaxation perpendicular and finally we evaluate the parallel and perpendicular resistivity.
