Cation Distribution of Mg0.6Zn0.4La2yFe2-2yO4Spinel Ferrite Nanocomposites

Abstract

: Nanocompositesof Lanthanum substituted Magnesium Zinc ferrites with general formula   Mg_0.6Zn_0.4La_2yFe_2-2yO₄(where y = 0.0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, 0.20 and 0.25) have been synthesized using co-precipitation method. Phase formation was investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique and confirms cubic spinel structure. Effect of lanthanum substitution on structural and cation distribution was studied using X-ray diffraction technique.
