Abstract
We have studied the magnetic aftereffects in the Ni x Fe3−x−ΔO4 system, for 0≦x≦1 and 10−5≦Δ≦2×10−1, between 80 and 500 K. The samples were obtained by sintering at 1400°C in an appropriate gas atmosphere. The measurements are based on the deviation from equilibrium that is produced in a Maxwell-Wien bridge when the self-induction of a coil with ferrite core varies because of the phenomenon of magnetic aftereffects. The numerical analysis of the results shows the presence of relaxation processes at 300 K (III), 330 K (IIa), and above 500 K (I). The Processes III and IIa are related to the concentration of nickel,x, and of vacancy, Δ. It is seen that the IIa peak can be attributed to a process of diffusion of Ni ions in the spinel lattice by means of vacancies on octahedral sites.
