Effect of B-site Co substitution on the structure and magnetic properties of nanocrystalline neodymium orthoferrite synthesized by auto-combustion

Samples of cobalt-doped neodymium orthoferrite compounds, NdCoxFe1−xO3 (0.0 ≤ x ≤ 0.5) were synthesized via glycine auto-combustion between 250 and 300°C and calcined at 500°C for 2 h. X-ray diffraction showed that all compounds had an orthorhombic perovskite structure with space group Pbnm. Increas...
