Abstract
Bismuth substituted nickel ferrite (NiFe2−xBixO4 at x = 0.0–1.0) nanoparticles are synthesised by co-precipitation method. The crystal structure, grain size, morphology and magnetic properties are analysed by using XRD, FTIR, SEM, and VSM. XRD confirm the crystalline nature with single-phase cubic spinel structure. The average crystallite size calculated using Debye Scherrer and modified Scherrer formula is in the range of 20–65 nm. SEM image manifests that the particles are agglomerated and with non-uniformity shape. The presence of elemental composition such as Ni, Fe, Bi and O has been confirmed by EDX. In FTIR spectra, tetrahedral (A) and octahedral (B) sites are found in the range of 525–620 cm−1 and 460–465 cm−1, respectively. Their magnetic properties are scrutinized using VSM. At x = 0, the prepared nanoparticles are very useful for magnetic targeting carriers. The coercivity, saturation magnetization, remanence, squareness ratio, Bohr magneton and Curie temperature values decrease as the bismuth content increases. M–T curve reveals the superparamagnetic behaviour at room temperature.
