Abstract

Cr3+-substituted spinel ZnFe2-xCrxO4 (x = 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4) ferrites were obtained via a hydrothermal method, and their structural and magnetic properties were studied. It was found that all the specimens exhibited a typical single-phase spinel structure and the interplanar crystal spacing was reduced with the increase of x due to the smaller radius of Cr3+ compared with Fe3+. The morphology of specimens was not affected obviously by Cr3+ substitution, while the saturation magnetization increased with increasing Cr3+ content x since the antiparallel arrangement of magnetic moment in B sites was destroyed.
