Structural, Optical, and Magnetic Properties of Zn-Doped CoFe2O4 Nanoparticles

Abstract: The effect of Zn-doping in CoFe2O4 nanoparticles (NPs) through chemical co-precipitation route was investigated in term of structural, optical, and magnetic properties. Both XRD and FTIR analyses confirm the formation of cubic spinel phase, where the crystallite size changes with Zn content from 46 to 77 nm. The Scherrer method, Williamson-Hall (W-H) analysis, and size-strain plot method (SSPM) were used to study of crystallite sizes. The TEM results were in good agreement with the results of the SSP method. S… Show more

“…Cobalt ferrite is not completely inverse spinel structure and this also affects the theoretical calculations, resulting in mismatch in observed and calculated values. The presence of total vacancy concentration in a material can be theoretically estimated with the help of vacancy parameter (β 0 ), given byβ0=ath3-a3/ath3the decrease in vacancy parameter ( β 0 ) confirmed the decrement of anion and cation vacancies . The cationic vacancies obtained from Rietveld refinement also decrease with increase in Cu 2+ ions concentration in cobalt ferrite nanoparticles.…”

“…In recent years, new opportunities have been disclosed and numerous directions have been developed for research on these materials by manipulating their physical properties. The long-established applications of the ferrites (in thin film, bulk or nano form) are in transformer applications, solar hydrogen production, multi-layer chip inductors, high density magnetic recording, telecommunications, microwave devices, as contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), sensors, catalysts etc [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]. Moreover, the new application of spinel ferrites has been listed as photocatalysts for photocatalytic degradation of dyes [9][10][11][12].…”

“…To date, wet chemistry has allowed the production of such mixed Co ferrite NPs, yet only substituted by either Zn or Gd, but not simultaneously. A rapid overview of the relevant literature shows that chemically made (Co 1 − x Zn x )Fe 2 O 4 nanocrystalline solid solutions exhibit a maximal magnetization at x ranging between 0.4 and 0.5 (Sharifi and Shokrollahi, ; Tahar et al, ; Ghasemian et al, ; Tatarchuk et al, ). In the case of Co(Fe 1 − x Ln x )O 4 nanocrystalline solid solutions, the highest magnetization was obtained for Ln = Gd and x ~ 0.1, the solubility limit of Ln cations being of the same order (Tahar et al, ; Kumar et al, ).…”
