The structural, optical, dielectric, and magnetic properties of double perovskite La2FeReO6+δ (LFRO) powders synthesized by solid-state reaction method under CO reduced atmosphere are reported on in this paper. Reitveld refinements on the XRD data revealed that the LFRO powders crystallized in an orthogonal structure (Pbnm space group) with column-like morphology. The molar ratios of La, Fe, and Re elements were close to 2:1:1. XPS spectra verified the mixed chemical states of Fe and Re ions, and two oxygen species in the LFRO powders. The LFRO ceramics exhibited a relaxor-like dielectric behavior, and the associated activation energy was 0.05 eV. Possible origins of the dielectric relaxation behavior are discussed based on the hopping of electrons among the hetero-valence ions at B-site, oxygen ion hopping through the vacant oxygen sites, and the jumping of electrons trapped in the shallower level created by oxygen vacancy. The LFRO powders display room temperature ferromagnetism with Curie temperature of 746 K. A Griffiths-like phase was observed in the LFRO powders with a Griffiths temperature of 758 K. The direct optical band gap of the LFRO powders was 2.30 eV, deduced from their absorption spectra, as confirmed by their green photoluminescence spectra with a strong peak around 556 nm.

Spinel ferrite Ni[Formula: see text]Mn[Formula: see text]Zn[Formula: see text]Fe2O4 was prepared by a conventional ceramic process followed by sintering at three different temperatures (1050[Formula: see text]C, 1100[Formula: see text]C and 1150[Formula: see text]C). X-ray diffraction (XRD) investigations stated the single-phase cubic spinel structure and the FTIR spectra revealed two prominent bands within the wavenumber region from 600 cm[Formula: see text] to 400 cm[Formula: see text]. Surface morphology showed highly crystalline grain development with sizes ranging from 0.27 [Formula: see text]m to 0.88 [Formula: see text]m. The magnetic hysteresis curve at ambient temperature revealed a significant effect of sintering temperature on both coercivity ([Formula: see text] and saturation magnetization ([Formula: see text]. Temperature caused a decrease in DC electrical resistivity, while the electron transport increased, suggesting the semiconducting nature of all samples and that they well followed the Arrhenius law from which their activation energies were determined. The values of Curie temperature ([Formula: see text] and activation energy were influenced by the sintering temperature. Frequency-dependent dielectric behavior (100 Hz–1 MHz) was also analyzed, which may be interpreted by the Maxwell–Wagner-type polarization. The UV–vis–NIR reflectance curve was analyzed to calculate the bandgap of ferrites, which showed a decreasing trend with increasing sintering temperature.
