Abstract

Tetragonal nickel chromite (NiCr2O4) nanoparticles were synthesized using the wet chemical method and investigated their structural and magnetic properties at different annealing temperatures. Structural properties of as-prepared were determined using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infra-red (FTIR) spectroscopy, and Raman spectroscopy technique. XRD results demonstrated that NiCr2O4 nanoparticles annealed at 800 and 900 °C led to the multi-phase compound formation of rhombohedral chromium oxide (Cr2O3) and tetragonal NiCr2O4 phase. However, a complete transformation of multi-phase to single NiCr2O4 tetragonal phase was achieved at 1000 °C. Raman and FTIR spectra also confirmed the formation of a single nickel chromite phase at an annealing temperature of 1000 °C. Some weak traces of characteristics modes of Cr2O3 phase were demonstrated at the lower annealing temperature. Magnetic properties of NiCr2O4 nanoparticles at different annealing temperatures were determined using a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). Multi-phase compound nanoparticles exhibited a mixed antiferromagnetic and paramagnetic behavior, whereas single-phase compound was ascribed to paramagnetic ones only.
