Abstract
In this study the result obtained from different characterizations for the MgFe2O4 nanoparticles by solid state reaction of inorganic precursor’s technique. Structural properties are carried out by using X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique and then formation of spinel MgFe2O4 structure is confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The XRD of the powder sample was done at room temperature which gives the lattice parameter of the sample. The cations distribution is also confirmed by IR spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy. An FTIR spectrum of the calcined samples at 800c, gives the two strong absorption bands (ѵ1 and ѵ2) which are the characteristic bands of the spinel MgFe2O4. The ѵ1 is high band due to the stretching vibrations of the Mg and O bonds in tetrahedral site while the low band ѵ2 is appeared due to the bending vibration of the Mg-O bonds in octahedral site, these bands are appeared due to the different bond lengths in each sites. The local deformation takes place due to the presence of Fe2+ cations at octahedral site, known as Jahn-Teller effect.The morphology of the nanoparticles is observed by ZEISS field emission scanning electron microscopy at BIT Meshra.
