【 摘 要 】

Zinc-Nickel Ferrite (Zn(1−x)NixFe2O4) nanoparticles were synthesized by solution combustion method using urea as a fuel and varying the cation concentration (x = 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1). The effects of cation concentration, on the crystallite size, morphology, absorption properties have been studied. The X-ray diffraction and FTIR results confirm the formation of single-phase spinel structure of Zinc-Nickel Ferrite nanoparticles. FESEM and TEM study reveals the formation of uniform spherical shape distribution of Zn(1−x)NixFe2O4 nanoparticles. The bandgap values were calculated for the prepared samples using UV–Visible spectrophotometer.
