- ItemElectrical and magnetic properties of NiTiO3 nanoparticles synthesized by the sol-gel synthesis method and microwave sintering(Amsterdam : Elsevier B.V., 2019) Pavithra, C.; Madhuri, W.In this paper, we focused on microwave sintered NiTiO3 nanoparticles synthesized via sol-gel method. The crystal structure was determined by the X-ray diffraction. Vibrational bands related to Ni-O and Ti-O bands were confirmed using the Fourier transform infrared spectrum. These NiTiO3 ceramics obeyed semiconductor behavior of Arrhenius type. The activation energy was found to be 0.04 μeV. The M-H curve exhibited superparamagnetic behavior at room temperature.
- ItemDC conductivity and Seebeck coefficient of nonstoichiometric MgCuZn ferrites(Warsaw : De Gruyter Open, 2017-2-8) Madhuri, W.; Kiran, S. Roopas; Reddy, M. Penchal; Reddy, N. Ramamanohar; Kumar, K.V. SivaNonstoichiometric series of Mg0.5-xCuxZn0.5Fe1.9O4-δ where x = 0.0, 0.1, 0.15, 0.2 and 0.25 has been synthesized by conventional solid state reaction route. The single phase spinel structure of the double sintered ferrites was confirmed by X-ray diffraction patterns (XRD). The ferrite series was studied in terms of DC electrical conductivity and thermoelectric power in the temperature ranging from room temperature to 300 °C and 400 °C, respectively. It was observed that DC electrical conductivity and Seebeck coefficient α decreased with the increase in x. DC electrical conductivity was found to decrease by about 4 orders. All the compositions showed a negative Seebeck coefficient exhibiting n-type semiconducting nature. From the above experimental results, activation energy and mobility of all the samples were estimated. Small polaron hopping conduction mechanism was suggested for the series of ferrites. Owing to their low conductivity the nonstoichiometric MgCuZn ferrites are the best materials for transformer core and high definition television deflection yokes. © 2017 Wroclaw University of Science and Technology.
