Abstract

Nanocrystalline samples of the Ni–Mg ferrite with the general chemical formula Ni0.5Mg0.5CrxFe2�xO4(0rxr1.0, in the step of0.2) have been synthesized by the citrate-gel auto combustion route. The synthesized samples were characterized by means of XRD,EDAX, FT-IR, UV–visible, dielectric, ac impedance spectroscopy, and AFM, SEM, TEM and FC/ZFC measurements. X-ray powderdiffraction of all the samples were carried out at room temperature to check the formation of the required products and structuralrelated properties. The elemental analysis as obtained from the EDAX measurement is in close agreement with the expected compositionfrom the stoichiometry of the reactant solutions. IR studies confirm two main absorption bands in the frequency range of 400–800 cm�1, arising due to the tetrahedral (A) and octahedral [B] stretching vibrations. Impedance spectroscopy techniques have beenused to study the effect of grain and grain boundary on the electrical properties of the prepared samples. The samples were zero fieldcooled (ZFC) to 100 K. Typical blocking temperature effects were observed below the temperature of about 129 K. The obtained resultshave been discussed so as to bring out the role of chromium substitution on the structural, dielectric and magnetic properties of Ni–Mgferrites.
