Structural and magnetic properties of Co-Al substituted Ni ferrites synthesized by co-precipitation method

Controlled growth and careful characterizations of nanocrystalline Ni ferrites are demanding for high density recording media. Ferrites of the form Ni((1-x))CoxFe2-x AlxO4 (where x = 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6 and 0.8) are prepared by the co-precipitation method. The process is investigated with simultaneou...

description Controlled growth and careful characterizations of nanocrystalline Ni ferrites are demanding for high density recording media.

The process is investigated with simultaneous thermogravimetric-differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA). The FESEM images display the nanostructural features of the samples with Gaussian distribution and the XRD analysis confirm the formation of single spinet phase with mean particle size 15-19 nm.
