Synthesis, Optical and Electrical Properties of ZnFe2O4 Nanocomposites
ZnFe2O4 nanocomposites have been prepared by a simple co‐precipitation method. The prepared samples were characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Powder X‐ray Diffraction (XRD), Energy Disperse X‐ray Analysis (EDX), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and UV‐visible absorption spectra...

| description | ZnFe2O4 nanocomposites have been prepared by
a simple co‐precipitation method. The prepared samples
were characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy
(SEM), Powder X‐ray Diffraction (XRD), Energy Disperse
X‐ray Analysis (EDX), Transmission electron microscopy
(TEM) and UV‐visible absorption spectral techniques.
Conductivity measurements show a transition from
ferrimagnetism to paramagnetism. The enhancement in
fluorescence spectra shows that there is an electronic
transition to an exciting level. In UV‐Vis spectra, the
peak observed at 647nm indicates ZnFe2O4
nanocomposites are a photoactive compound. The above
results suggest that these nanomaterial |
