Abstract

Abstract: The spinel ZnFe2 O4 specimens were obtained via a hydrothermal and a ceramic method, respectively, and their structural and magnetic properties were comparatively studied. It was found that all the specimens exhibited a single-phase and mixed spinel structure. The magnetism of specimens synthesized via the hydrothermal method is obviously better than that of specimen prepared via the ceramic method. This can be ascribed to the different occupancy of Fe ions resulted from the loss of Zn during the hydrothermal process.
