Abstract

Abstract A series of Cu 1- x Zn x Fe 2 O 4 ferrite (with x  = 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6) compositions were synthesized using the standard solid-state reaction technique. X-ray diffraction was used to study the structure of the above investigated samples. The theoretical and experimental lattice parameters ( a th and a exp ) were calculated for each composition. A significant decrease in density and subsequent increase in porosity were observed with increasing Zn content. Curie temperature, T C , has been determined from the temperature dependence of permeability and found to decrease with increasing Zn content. The anomaly observed in the temperature dependence of permeability was attributed to the existence of two structural phases: cubic phase and tetragonal phase. Low-field hysteresis measurements have been performed using a B - H loop trace from which hysteresis parameters have been determined. Coercivity and hysteresis loss were estimated with different Zn contents.
