Abstract
Ni0.3Cu0.3Zn0.4Fe1.8Cr0.2O4 (NCZF) ferrite nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared by sol-gel auto-combustion route. As obtained NCZF powder NPs from sol-get auto combustion route were divided into four parts equally. A non-calcinated part of NCZF NPs was considered as SS1 sample, whereas the three separated parts of NCZF NPs were calcinated at 400°C, 600°C and 800°C, accordingly and were considered as SS2, SS3 and SS4 samples, respectively. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of as-prepared samples were used to evaluate the microstructure parameters. The obtained crystallite sizes were found to be 25, 26.5, 23.4 and 28.1 nm for SS1, SS2, SS3, and SS4 samples, respectively. Transmission electron microscopy images of samples exhibit the spherical shape particles. Average particle size was found to be 6.18, 8.24, 12.7, and 17.14 nm from particles size distributions of SS1, SS2, SS3 and SS4 samples, respectively. The saturation magnetization MS(45.96, 49.84, 48.84 and 50.01 (emu/g), coercivityHC(41.40, 43.00, 44.06, and 43.69 Oe), and remanant magnetization Mr(2.00, 1.85, 1.88 and 1.92 emu/g) were determined from M-H analysis of as-prepared samples. Surface analysis of SS2, SS3 and SS4 samples were examined by X-ray photoemission spectroscopy. Dielectric properties and real value of electric modulus of SS4 sample were reduced drastically as-compared to SS2 sample. Frequency dependent conductivity and impedance of SS4 sample was enhanced as-compared to SS2. Outstanding structural, dielectric and electric, and magnetic properties of NCZF NPs can be used for the multi-layer chip inductor applications.
