Magnetic Properties of Zinc Doped Ferrites

A series of samples of the system Co$\text{}_{1-x}$Zn$\text{}_{x}$Fe$\text{}_{2}$O$\text{}_{4}$ (x = 0.0, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5 and 0.8) have been prepared by the usual ceramic technique. X-ray analysis shows that they are cubic spinel (single phase). The lattice parameter a and the bulk density D are measured for the samples. The substitution experiments replacing Co$\text{}^{2+}$ by Zn$\text{}^{2+}$ furnish new significant fact concerning the magnetic behaviour of ferrites. The magnetic strength of the magnetic ions on the Band A-sites can be varried relative to each other by the substitution of Zn$\text{}^{2+}$. The increase of density of the composition increases the magnetic interaction of the dipole moment at the B-sites.
