Fabrication of Spinel Ferrite Film by Chemical Method: Its Structural Investigation

C. L. Jambhale

Abstract :

The nickel zinc ferrite (NZF), NixZn(1–x) Fe2O4, films were faicated using modified chemical deposition method (M–CDM ) on to glass substrate by optimizing the preparative parameters such as deposition temperature, pH, concentrations of precursor solution, deposition cycles etc. The structural details of the NZF films were evaluated from different characterization techniques. XRD pattern shows that the NZF films were oriented towards the (311) plane confirming the spinel phase. The FTIR shows absorption peaks around 600 cm–1 which are typical for cubic spinel structure. The porous morphology is confirmed by SEM study. The TGA was carried out to confirm the stable oxide formation which takes place at 600 oC. The decrease in the static water contact angle indicates the increase in the porosity of the films. Possible applications of the NZF thin film is projected.
