Structural and optical properties of Mn0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 nano ferrites: Effect of sintering temperature

Mn-Zn ferrite powder (Mn0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4) has been prepared by the co-precipitation method and subsequently sintered at three different temperatures i.e. 973 K, 1173 K, 1373 K. A red shift has been confirmed from UV-visible absorption spectra and photoluminescence spectra have been reported with an increase in sintering temperature.120
