Abstract

Nano Zn1-xCuxMn2O4 (with x=0.15, 0.25, 0.35, 0.45, and 0.55) ceramics were prepared by co-precipitation method. Formation of tetragonal structure was confirmed by using X-ray diffraction with determination of lattice parameters, crystallite size, dislocation density, and micro strain. The grains sizes and morphology of the samples were unserstood by SEM images. An absorption band of FTIR spectrum employed to supports the formation of structures. VSM studies were done to estimate saturation magnetization (Ms), coercivity (Oe), retentivity (Mr) and magnetic moment (ηB) of the samples. A comparative contemplate carried out with the help of W-H analysis and SSP analysis. A detailed study of influence of copper doping on structural and magnetic properties of synthesized materials is reported.
