Abstract

Ni added Zn0.75−xNi x Mg0.15Cu0.1Fe2O4 (with x = 0.00–0.75) nanoparticles with Scherrer’s grain diameter (D) < 56.73 nm were prepared via sol-gel auto-combustion technique. The morphological and quantitative analysis of structural, magnetic properties was performed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), magnetic measurements, scanning electron microscope (SEM), and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX). Lattice parameter (a) of Zn-Ni-Mg-Cu ferrite shows non-monotonic variation with Ni content. With Ni addition no changes are observed in the concentration of Mg2+ ions at tetrahedral A and octahedral B site. The calculated oxygen parameter (\( {u}^{\overline{4}3m} \)) values are greater than the ideal value (0.375) for Zn0.75−xNi x Mg0.15Cu0.1Fe2O4 nano-ferrite revealing distortion in spinel structure. SEM images for x = 0.00 reveal the formation of non-connected spherical pores with pore size of 555.70 nm, 768.37 nm, and 1.30 μm. EDAX validates existence of all the elements (Zn, Ni, Mg, Cu, Fe, O) in the sample. Non-zero Y-K angles for Zn0.75−xNi x Mg0.15Cu0.1Fe2O4 ferrite suggest presence of non-collinear spin structure on B site. Coercivity (H c) ranges between 8.95 and 136.39 Oe and increases linearly with nickel addition. Saturation magnetization (M s) increases from 23.47 to 69.78 Am2/kg for lower Ni content (0.00 ≤ x ≤ 0.45), and for higher Ni content (x > 0.45), M s reduces from 69.78 to 36.11 Am2/kg, ascribed to cationic diffusion from A to B or from B to A site in Zn0.75−xNi x Mg0.15Cu0.1Fe2O4 nano-ferrite. The nature of the surface defects in the Ni-doped Zn-Mg-Cu ferrites has been described on the basis of antistructural modeling.
