“…3 for samples Ni x Mn 0.8−x Mg 0.2 Fe 2 O 4 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.40) recorded in the range of 200-800 cm −1 . As usual for spinel ferrites, the band 1 from 633 to 692 cm −1 arises due to the tetrahedral metal-oxygen bond (Fe 3+ -O 2− ) tetra and 2 from 582 to 584 cm −1 is due to the octahedral metal-oxygen (Fe 3+ -O 2− ) octa and these two bands are characteristic for Ni-Mn ferrite as reported elsewhere [11][12][13][14]. Also, it has been reported that [15], Fe 3+ -O 2− distance for A-site (0.189 nm) is smaller than that of B-site (0.199 nm).…”
