Impedance characterization of hydrothermally synthesized nickel zinc ferrite nanoparticles for electronic application

摘要: This study comprehensively investigates the structural, morphological, dielectric, and conductivity properties of Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 nanoparticles synthesized through a hydrothermal method, focusing on their suitability for technological applications. The nanoparticles exhibited a cubic structure with an average grain size of approximately 19 nm. The dielectric properties were analyzed with respect to frequency and temperature, showcasing behaviors consistent with Maxwell-Wagner and Koop's theories. The dielectric plane plots, corresponding to the impedance circuit in the Smith Chart, were found to align with the Davidson-Cole relaxation model. Moreover, the conductivity properties adhered to the Jonscher Power law, resembling conductive properties akin to semiconductors in accordance with the band theory. Notably, the s parameter, indicative of the DC conduction mechanism, displayed temperature …
