Abstract
This research paper focuses on the synthesis and characterization of Cu-doped Mg-Co ferrites with varying compositions (Mg0.6-xCo0.4CuxFe2O4, where x = 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3) using a sol-id-state reaction method. This paper also investigates the structural, morphological, magnetic, and electrical characteristics of synthesized Mg0.6-xCo0.4CuxFe2O4, where x = 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique confirms the ferrites spinel structure in the Fd-3m space group, with average crystallite sizes ranging from 57.29 to 48.57 nm. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy verifies chemical and structural changes, while scanning electron microsco-py (SEM) reveals cubic crystal growth with an average grain size of 1 to 1.5 μm. DC electrical re-sistivity decreases with increasing temperature and Cu2+ substitution, ranging from 1.4 x 10^6 Ω-cm to 6.7 x 10^5 Ω-cm. The study suggests a correlation between resistivity and Cu2+ concen-tration. Magnetic behavior, studied using a Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM), shows de-pendence on dopant concentration, with coercivity ranging from 157 Oe to 256 Oe. The results indicate potential applications in magnetic storage devices, antennas, transformers, and high-frequency electronics.
