Microcrystalline parameters of Cu-Zn ferrites using X-ray line profile analysis

Abstract

Cu-Zn ferrites are synthesized by double sintering ceramic method. X-ray analysis of Cu-Zn ferrite shows the single phase spinel structure. The structural and microstructural parameters have been computed using X-ray diffraction data. Using CheckCell program, the Bragg reflections have been indexed. The estimated microstructural parameters have been correlated with the reported physical parameters. In the present paper, an analytical asymmetric function like exponential distribution function was used to describe the paracrystalline statistics of column length distribution in Cu-Zn ferrites and a good convergence was observed with this function.
