This article presents the annealing effect on the structural, elastic, thermodynamic, optical, magnetic, and electric properties of Ni0.6Zn0.4Fe1.5Al0.5O4 (NZFAO) nanoparticles (NPs).

Nanoparticles of Li0.5ZnFe1.5O4 (LiZn2Fe3O8) with the spinel structure were prepared by a sol–gel auto-combustion method at two different annealing temperatures.

In this study, a Cu1.5Mn1.5O4 spinel was successfully synthesized by a sol–gel method at 500 °C for 5 h and characterized by different techniques.

The incorporation of Nd3+ in the Ni–Zn–Al ferrite spinel causes an improvement in magnetic parameters. Spectroscopic properties were discussed based on FTIR and Raman measurements and proved the purity and good crystallization of the samples.
