Abstract

In this work, Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2 O 4 nanoparticles have been synthesized by coprecipitation, sol-gel and citrate-gel auto combustion wet chemical methods. The as-synthesized samples were sintered at 1073 K and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscope (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscope (FTIR), vibrational sample magnetometer (VSM), and DC electrical resistivity. Analysis of x-ray diffraction patterns confirm the formation of single-phase cubic spinel structure for all the sintered samples under study. IR measurements also support the formation of spinel phase of the synthesized samples. Saturation magnetization has been found to be increased after sintering. Results showed that Ni–Zn ferrite prepared through Citrate-gel auto combustion method has maximum saturation magnetization, stable permeability, and high electrical resistivity.
