Nickel ferrite NiFe2O4 nanoparticles have been prepared by sol-gel auto combustion. Two groups of samples were obtained from as-burnt and calcined powders by using various cooling conditions. The X-Ray diffraction (XRD) analyses confirm the single phase spinel structure for all samples. The grain sizes investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were found within the range of 70-100 nm. DC resistivities for different group of samples are strongly affected by cooling rate, showing the way how to control NiF2O4 electrical properties.

Ni-Zn ferrite nanoparticles with Cr doping, having the general formula Ni0.5Zn0.5CrxFe2-xO4(x = 0.1, 0.3, 0.5) were prepared by simplified sol-gel method and sintered at 750±5°C. The structural and magnetic properties of the samples sintered at 750±5°C were studied. From X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns, it was confirmed that the samples have single phase spinel structure. The crystallite size was calculated from the most intense peak (3 1 1) using the Debye Scherrer formula and was found to be in the range of 29-34 nm. The scanning electron microscope images showed that the particle size of the samples were in the range 60-120nm. Quantum design PPMS model 6700 was used to study magnetic properties of these samples. The effect of Cr doping on the magnetic properties was explained on the basis of cations distribution in the crystal structure.

Ni0.6-xZn0.4MgxFe2O4were synthesized by sol-gel auto-combustion method with Zn(NO3.) 2 •6H2O. , Ni(NO3.) )2•6H2O. , Mg(NO3.) )2•6H2O. , Fe(NO3.) )3•9H2O. , COOO2. and NH3•H2O. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysises show that the sample is single phase and the doping of magnesium makes no difference to nickel-zinc ferrite’s crystal structure; nickel-zinc ferrite has formed after auto-combustion. Scanning electron microscope analysises show that after sintered the sample’s size is more even and the doping of magnesium makes the size smaller and more even too.

Nano Ni-Zn ferrite with composition Ni 0.6 Zn 0.4 Fe2O4 is prepared by using sol-gel auto-combustion method with citric acid as a fuel. The structural properties of synthesized nano-ferrite is characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique while the electrical properties have been studied using two probe method. The X-ray diffraction study confirms that, there is a formation of single-phase cubic spinel with most intense peak at [311] having lattice constant of 8.3585 A0 and the average particle size is found to be 45.63 nm. In addition to this, the electrical resistivity of Ni-Zn Ferrite decreases with increase in temperature which exhibits semiconductor nature.

Abstract Y3+ substituted strontium hexaferrites having chemical composition SrYxFe12-xO19 (x= 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5) were successfully synthesized by sol-gel auto-combustion method. The structural and morphological studies of prepared samples were investigated by using X-ray diffraction technique, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. The X-ray diffraction pattern confirmed the single-phase hexagonal structure of yttrium substituted strontium ferrite and the lattice parameters a and c increased with the substitution of Y3+ ions. The crystallite size also varied with x content from 60 to 80 nm. The morphology was studied by FE-SEM, and the grain size of nanoparticles ranged from 44 to 130 nm. The magnetic properties were investigated by using vibrating sample magnetometer. The value of saturation magnetization decreased from 49.60 to 35.40 emu/g. The dielectric constant decreased non-linearly whereas the electrical dc resistivity increased with the yttrium concentration in strontium hexaferrite.

AbstractThis study presents a preparation of SrFe12O19– SrTiO3 nanocomposite synthesis via the green auto-combustion method. At first, SrFe12O19 nanoparticles were synthesized as a core and then, SrTiO3 nanoparticles were prepared as a shell for it to manufacture SrFe12O19–SrTiO3 nanocomposite. A novel sol-gel auto-combustion green synthesis method has been used with lemon juice as a capping agent. The prepared SrFe12O19–SrTiO3 nanocomposites were characterized by using several techniques to characterize their structural, morphological and magnetic properties. The crystal structures of the nanocomposite were investigated via X-ray diffraction (XRD). The morphology of SrFe12O19– SrTiO3 nanocomposite was studied by using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The elemental composition of the materials was analyzed by an energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX). Magnetic properties and hysteresis loop of nanopowder were characterized via vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) in the room temperature. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) spectra of the samples showed the molecular bands of nanoparticles. Also, the photocatalytic behavior of nanocomposites has been checked by the degradation of azo dyes under irradiation of ultraviolet light.

A ceramics sample of LiTaO3 was prepared using a sol-gel method. The sample is annealed at 750 °C for 48 hours. X-ray diffraction analysis indicate the formation of single phase, rhombohedral structure. An ac impedance study was used to analyse the conductivity of LiTaO3 at room temperature and at various temperatures.

In this study, we present the process of synthesis FexNi1-xMn2O4 (x = 0; 0.1; 0.3; 0.5; 0.7; 0.9; 1) by method sol-gel. Scanning electron microscope results shows that the particle size is about 50 nm. The X-ray diffraction diagram shows that the samples are single phase, changing structure clearly as the x ratio increases from 0 to 1. The lattice constant, the bond length also changes with x-value as shown on the Raman scattering spectrum. The results of the vibrating sample magnetometer show that the magnetism of the material FexNi1-xMn2O4 changes with the value of x and reaches a maximum in the range x from 0.5 to 0.7.

AbstractWe have synthesized Gd-doped ceria polycrystalline samples (5, 10, 15 %mol), having relative densities exceeding 95% and grain sizes between 30 and 160 nm after axial hot pressing (750 °C, 250 MPa). The samples were prepared by sintering nanopowders obtained by sol-gel chemistry methods having a very narrow size distribution centered at about 16 nm. SEM and X-ray diffraction were performed to characterize the sample microstructures and to assess their structures. We report ionic conductivity measurements using impedance spectroscopy. It is important to investigate the properties of these systems with sub-micrometric grains and as a function of their composition. Therefore, samples having micrometric and nanometric grain sizes (and different Gd content) were studied. Evidence of Gd segregation near the grain boundaries is given and the impact on the ionic conductivity, as a function of the grain size and Gd composition, is discussed and compared to microcrystalline samples.
