Popis: | The crystal structure and magnetic properties of Cu x Co1– x Fe2O4 samples synthesized by a solid-phase reaction method at various annealing temperatures ( ${T}_{\mathrm {a}} =1073$ –1223 K) were investigated. Tetragonal distortion due to the Jahn–Teller effect of Cu2+ ions was observed in the ${x} =0.8$ sample synthesized at ${T} _{\mathrm {a}} =1223$ K. As the magnetic anisotropy constant is enhanced by such distortion, the Cu concentration dependence of the coercivity value ${H} _{\mathrm {c}}$ exhibits a maximum. A decrease in ${T} _{\mathrm {a}}$ caused the enhancement of tetragonal distortion and the reduction of crystallite size. As a result, the largest value of ${H} _{\mathrm {c}} = 2100$ Oe was obtained for the ${x} =0.8$ sample synthesized at ${T} _{\mathrm {a}} =1073$ K. It is clear that the control of both the Cu concentration and annealing temperatures during synthesis is important to obtain large coercivity in Cu x Co1– x Fe2O4. |
