Cation ordering in NiFe2–xCrx O4‐spinels studied by Mössbauer spectroscopy in external fields

Abstract: NiFe2–x Crx O4, 0 ≤ x ≤ 1.8, produced from appropriate oxides, has been studied using Mössbauer spectroscopy (MS) at low and ambient temperatures and in external fields up to 7 Tesla. X‐ray diffraction (XRD) shows all samples to be single phase cubic spinels, where a0 changes with change in x, as a concave curve, with a minimum at around x = 1. Analyses, based on Mössbauer spectra, show NiFe2–x Crx O4 to be a nearly perfect inverted spinel for x ≤ 0.6. However, for higher x ‐values the ordering is more complic… Show more

“…The lattice constants in the NiAl 2-x Ga x O 4 system were found to increase linearly with increasing Ga concentration, in agreement with Vegard's law [19]. In the NiFe 2-x Cr x O 4 system, the lattice constant decreases slightly up to x = 1, and then increases slightly when x > 1, which is consistent with other studies [20].…”

“…The bending of the Arrhenius plots for NiCr2O4 and NiFeCrO4 can be related to the resistance going from grain boundary to bulk domination (15), with NiFeCrO4 switching to a metallic-like conduction at T > 600°C. The overall decrease in activation energy follows the increase in degree of inversion of chromite spinels, Mg ≈ Zn < Ni < NiFe (32)(33)(34). The doped MnCr2O4 show all an increase in conductivity compared with the pure spinel.…”

“…Among spinel ferrites, nickel ferrites are of great interest due to their noteworthy properties such as large permeability at high frequency, high electrical resistivity, chemical stability, and cost-effectiveness [1][2][3][4]. NiFe 2 O 4 possess inverse spinel structure [5] in which Ni 2+ ions occupy half of the B sites, while half of the Fe 3+ ions rest on A sites, the other half on B sites.…”
