0.5M 0.37Cu 0.13Fe 2O 4 (M?=?Ni, Zn and Mg) ferrite nanoparticle systems]]>

摘要

Ferrite nanoparticles of the composition Co0.5M0.37Cu0.13Fe2O4(M?=?Ni, Zn, and Mg) have been synthesized using sol-gel auto combustion method. Structural properties are investigated using powder X-ray diffraction technique and the results showed a pure spinel crystal structures of the synthesized materials with lattice parameters in the range of 8.3331–8.4793??. Crystallite sizes are calculated using the Scherrer’s formula and the results are found to be in the range of 62.22–82.41?nm. The surface texture and morphological nature of the samples are studied by scanning electron microscopy which depicted clear crystalline nature of the materials. Characteristic vibrational states prevailing in the samples are studied using room temperature Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. A two-probe DC electrical resistivity measurement of the samples showed a high resistive nature. Room temperature vibrating sample magnetometer measurements revealed the magnetic properties of the samples.
