Abstract
A series of solid solutions of composition ZnxCo3-xO4 with 0 ≤x ≤ 1, crystallising in spinel structure have been characterised by measurements of unit cell parameter, electrical conductivity and magnetic susceptibility. The results have been rationalised on the basis of cation distribution. A comparison with the solid solutions of composition NixCo3-xO4 is also made.
