In the present study, nanoferrite of composition Mn0.4Zn0.6In0.5Fe1.5O4 has been synthesized by co-precipitation method. Decomposition of residue at a temperature as low as 200 degrees C gives the ferrite powder. The ferrite has been, finally, sintered at 500 degrees C. The structural studies have been made by using X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), which confirm the formation of single spinel phase and nanostructure. The dc resistivity is studied as a function of temperature and values found are more than twice those for the samples prepared by the other chemical methods. It is found that the resistivity decreases with increase in temperature. The initial permeability value is found to be higher as compared to the other chemical routes. The initial permeability value is found to increase with increase in temperature. At a certain temperature called Curie temperature, it attains a maximum value, after which the initial permeability decreases sharply. Even at nanolevel, appreciable value of initial permeability is obtained and low magnetic losses make these ferrites especially suitable for high-frequency applications. The particle size is calculated using Scherrer's equation for Lorentzian peak, which comes out between 35 and 49nm. Possible mechanisms contributing to these processes have been discussed.
