Abstract

Ni1-xZnxFe2O4 (0.0⩽x⩽1.0) nanoparticles have been prepared by the polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) sol-gel method. The lattice parameter of Ni-Zn ferrite nanoparticles is larger than that of the bulk material. The variation of saturation magnetization (Ms) as a function of x has been studied. The Mössbauer spectra of the samples at room temperature showed the presence of ultrafine particles, exhibiting superparamagnetic relaxation. At higher annealing temperature, the portion of the ferromagnetic ultrafine particles increased.
