A study of nanosized magnesium ferrite particles with high magnetic moment

Structural, magnetic and gas sensing properties of nanosized copper ferrite powder synthesized by sol gel combustion technique

“…There are several reports in the literature on the presence of impurity phases when CuFe 2 O 4 is synthesised in the nanocrys talline powder form [16 19]. The precipitation and disappearance of α Fe 2 O 3 in MgFe 2 O 4 was reported earlier [15]. However there is report on the formation of single phase copper ferrite in the case of RF sputtered thin films (with nanocrystalline grains) deposited using a bulk copper ferrite target [9].…”

“…Copper ferrite powder was synthesized by the sol gel com bustion technique discussed elsewhere [15]. The obtained powder sample was ball milled using yttria stabilized zirconium balls for 24 hours.…”

Effect of quenching on the magnetic properties of Mg-ferrite thin films

“…Since, the only Fe . 13 The presence of canting of the spins, if any, is ignored in this calculation.…”

“…The inversion parameter obtained for our quenched Mg-ferrite thin film is smaller than the lowest value (x=0.78) obtained by Sumangala et al for quenched magnesium ferrite nanoparticles. 13 Folen et al had shown that the decrease in the cation distribution parameter x (i.e. increase in M S ) led to a higher anisotropy (|K 1 | ) in bulk Mg-ferrite.…”

Cation Distribution Assisted Tuning of Magnetization in Nanosized Magnesium Ferrite

“…Improving magnetization of nanosized MgFe 2 O 4 , therefore, still remains a challenge. Numerous studies have been carried out on varying cation distribution by using chemical preparation methods combined with heat treatment in order to enhance magnetization of MgFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles . In a highlighted work, Franco et al showed an enhancement of the saturation magnetization M s of about 50 % (compared to the bulk counterpart) in 44 nm‐MgFe 2 O 4 prepared by using combustion reaction method.…”
