Abstract

MgAlxCrxFe2−2xO4 (x = 0.1, 03 & 0.6) ferrites are synthesized by solid state reaction method. The Rietveld refinement of X-ray diffraction (XRD) data confirms the cubic spinel structure with Fd3m space group. The Fourier Transform Infrared Transmission Spectroscopy (FTIR) is employed to study elastic properties of present systems at 300K. The force constants for tetrahedral (A) and octahedral (B) sites of the spinel lattice are determined by infrared spectral and X-ray diffraction analysis. The elastic constants like bulk modulus, rigidity modulus, Young’s modulus, Poisson’s ratio and Debye temperature are determined. The vibrational frequency of both the interstitial sites increases as Al-Cr content increases hence the force constant and elastic moduli for all the samples are found to increase for the present ferrite system.
