Abstract: Manganese co-doped magnesium-cobalt ferrite nanoparticles (Mg0.4Co0.4Mn0.2Fe2O4) are synthesized by co-precipitation method and are annealed at 130, 600 and 900 °C. The synthesized nanoparticles are characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, FT-IR spectral analysis, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) analysis, Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM ) analysis and Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM ) analysis. The crystallite size is found to be 17 and 19.6 nm for the samples annealed at 600 and 900 °C respectively. The crystallite size and lattice constant increases as the samples are annealed at higher temperatures. FT-IR analysis confirms the characteristic absorption bands at 590 and 546 cm−1 for tetrahedral sites and 416 cm−1 for octahedral sites. SEM analysis shows uniformly distributed spherical shaped nanoparticles. The microstructure and particle size are analyzed by TEM analysis. The saturation magnetization, remanent magnetization and coercivity increases due to the inclusion of manganese and as the annealing temperature increases. These samples can be used for gas sensing applications.
