“…The resulting ferrites show a smaller tetragonal distortion since a great proportion of the cupric ions are located on tetrahedral sites. Finally, Cu-ferrite powders can be stabilized in either tetragonal or cubic phase even at room temperature depending on nature and conditions of preparation process [7,12,15,18,[52][53][54][55][56][57]. This study revealed that the CuFe 2 O 4 crystallites can be stabilized in cubic phase with the G/N ratio in the range of 0.67-2 and also stabilized in mixture of cubic and tetrahedral phases above this limit.…”
