Powerful electromagnetic (EM) transmitter is required for the transmission of EM signal underneath the seabed. New aluminum transmitter with yttrium iron garnet (Y3Fe5O12) based magnetic feeders was used in a scale tank to increase the magnitude of the magnetic field. Yttrium iron garnet samples were prepared using self combustion technique at different sintering temperatures of 750°C, 950°C and 1150°C. Characterizations of Y3Fe5O12 samples were done by using XRD, RAMAN, FESEM and Impedence network analyser. X-ray diffraction results revealed that yttrium iron garnet phase with good crystallinity appeared at sintering temperature of 1150°C. Nanoparticles size ranging from 60 to 110 nm was investigated. Raman results also confirmed garnet structure of yttrium iron garnet at sintering temperature of 1150°C. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) was used to image the morphology of the Y3Fe5O12 nanoparticles. Magnetic properties of Y3Fe5O12 magnetic feeders illustrates that Y3Fe5O12 has high Initial permeability (58.054), high Q-factor (59.842) and low loss factor (0.0003) at sintering temperature of 1150°C. Y3Fe5O12 magnetic feeders with high Q factor were chosen for new aluminum EM transmitter. Experiments with a scale factor of 2000 were carried out in scaled tank. It was found that Al transmitter with Y3Fe5O12 magnetic feeders increased magnitude of magnetic field strength up to 180. © (2013) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland. date: 2013 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84875740500&doi=10.4028%2fwww.scientific.net%2fAMR.667.10&partnerID=40&md5=daac4a977e325c85deec3c1a6f6db307 id_number: 10.4028/www.scientific.net/AMR.667.10 full_text_status: none publication: Advanced Materials Research volume: 667 place_of_pub: Shah Alam, Selangor pagerange: 10-23 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9783037856307 issn: 10226680 citation: Akhtar, M.N. and Yahya, N. and Nasir, N.
