摘 要:Mixed Copper substituted Nickel nano-ferrites having the chemical formula Ni1-xCuxFe2O4 (where x = 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 0.9 and 1.0) were synthesized by citrate gel technique. The crystal structure characterization and morphology were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). An elemental composition of the samples were studied by energy dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS). Lattice parameter, X-ray density, Volume of the Unit Cell and The values of the hopping length for octahedral (dB) and tetrahedral (dA) sites were calculated. The observed results can be explained on the basis of composition.
