Abstract

This work is focusing on synthesizing the cobalt nanoferrite materials substituted by copper forming Co0.6Ni0.4-xCuxFe2O4 with x = 0.0, 0.1, and 0.3 using the sol-gel auto-combustion method. The phase analysis of XRD showed the spinel structure with the lattice parameter in the range 8.36-8.39 Å. FESEM image showed the grain size initially decreasing and then increasing with Cu concentration. The FTIR curve's two absorption bands in the specified range of frequency assured the spinel nano ferrite structure. The values of remanent ratios obtained from VSM showed their isotropic nature forming single domain ferrimagnetic particles.
