AbstractNi0.5 xCdxZn0.5Fe2O4 ferrites (x = 0.00, 0.15, 0.30, and 0.45) have been synthesized by conven
tional ceramic method. The spinel phase purity and crystal lattice symmetry were estimated from Xray dif
fraction studies. An infrared spectroscopy study shows the presence of main two absorption bands indicating the pres
ence of tetrahedral and octahedral group complexes, respectively, within the spinel lattice. The main absorption bands
of spinel ferrite were identified in the IR absorption spectra recorded in the range 300700 cm1.

1. INTRODUCTION
Ferrites are incomparable materials because of
moderate magnetization, high permeability, reason
ably high permittivity, and low losses at frequencies
from dc to submillimeter wavelengths. These proper
ties of ferrites suit them for high frequency applica
tions [1]. Ferrites materials attained huge interest
because of their unique magnetic, electric, and dielec
tric properties. They are extensively used in a wide
range of applications from low to high permeability
devices, including electronics, ferrofluids, high den
sity information storage devices, and magnetic drug
delivery microwave devices [25]. Many works have
been carried out on the substitution of cadmium (Cd)
ion in spinel structure of ferrites [6, 7]. Ferrites have
been studied and processed by versatile techniques
such as coprecipitation method, aerosol method,
modified oxidation process, hydrothermal process,
and sucrose precursor solgel combustion forced
hydrolysis ballmilling [510].
In this manuscript we report on the effect of cad
mium doping on structural behavior of NiZn ferrites
(Ni0.5 xCdxZn0.5Fe2O4, x = 0.00, 0.15, 0.30, 0.45)
synthesized by lowcost solidstate method. Doping
with cadmium could be expected to change such
parameters of ferrites as lattice constant, average grain
size, strain, and IR spectra.
2. EXPERIMENTAL
Lowcost solid state ceramic method was used
to prepare the ferrites with the general formula
Ni0.5 xCdxZn0.5Fe2O4 (x = 0.00, 0.15, 0.30, and 0.45).
High purity nickel oxide, cadmium oxide, zinc oxide
and iron oxide were weighed accurately by using a

3. CONCLUSIONS
In this paper, we have compared the behavior of lat
tice parameter (a), micro strain () and texture coeffi
cient (TC) for Cd2+substituted Ni0.5 xCdxZn0.5Fe2O4
ferrites upon variation in Cd content x. Remarkable
changes in lattice parameter (from 8.3747A0 to 8.469
A0) with increasing x are due to a larger ionic radius of
Cd2+. The average crystallite size of the ferrite under
consideration was found to vary within the range 33
112 nm. Texture analysis reveals adequate grain
growth in different plane directions. The main absorp
tion bands were recorded in the range 300700 cm1.
The splitting of the principal bands observed for the
samples with x = 0.000.30 is attributed to the Jahn
Teller distribution generated by the noncubic Fe2+
units that give rise to deformation of the cubic lattice.
