This paper investigates the effects of cadmium doping on the structural and magnetic properties of cobalt ferrite nanoparticles. The results show that cadmium doping reduces the magnetization and coercivity field.
The magnetization of CoFe2O4 nanoparticles is often less than the bulk value of 3.6 mu B (86 emu/g), corresponding to an inverse distribution of cations in the spinel structure. This paper investigated the Cd doping on cobalt ferrite nanoparticles' structural and magnetic properties. Cobalt ferrite nanoparticles doped with cad-mium (Co1-xCdxFe2O4, x = 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5) were prepared by using hydrothermal method. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed cubic spinel structure, and the crystallite size is estimated at around 56-59 nm. Micrographs obtained by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed an average particle size of about 60 nm, which is in agreement with the XRD analysis. The absorption band nu(1) for samples obtained from the infrared spectrum (FTIR) varies from 586 up to 570 Cm-1 by Cd doping, indicating Cd's replacement on the tetrahedral site. Magnetization values of 71 and 81 emu/g are obtained for x = 0 and x = 0.1 samples, respectively. But the magnetization decreased as the amount of Cd doping further increased due to the decreasing superexchange interaction between tetrahedral and octahedral sites. The rearrangement of Fe3+ and Co2+ cations on tetrahedral and octahedral sites and spin disorder at the surface of nanoparticles can reduce the magnetization below the bulk value. The coercivity field (Hc) value of 1.1 kOe is obtained for the x = 0, and the Hc values decrease with Cd doping. This is due to the decreasing magnetocrystalline anisotropy by substituting cobalt with cadmium.
