摘要

Sm³ ion-doped Mg-Cd nanoferrites chemical formula Mg 0.8Cd 0.2Sm xFe2-xO4 (MCSF), where x varies from 0.000 to 0.025 in increments of 0.005. The synthesis of materials using the Citrate Gel-Auto Combustion (CGAC) technique. Powder X-ray diffraction (P-XRD) analysis indicated that the crystalline size and lattice constant increase with a higher concentration of Sm³⁺ ions. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM) revealed that the particle size ranged from 13.6 to 26.6 nm. The field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) studies showed that the grain size increased from 19.4 to 46.6 nm. Energy Dispersive X-ray Analysis (EDAX) confirmed the presence of magnesium (Mg), cadmium (Cd), samarium (Sm), iron (Fe), and oxygen (O) in the samples, with no detectable impurities. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) spectra confirmed the presence of the cubic spinel structure and identified various functional groups, including two stretching bonds of metal nitrates. Magnetic analysis using a Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM) demonstrated hysteresis at 300 K, indicating that the synthesized samples exhibited ferromagnetic behavior. The squareness ratio varied from 0.100 to 0.211, along with a coercivity range from 66.44 to 106.99 Oe. These materials have potential applications in magnetic recording devices and magnetic sensors.
