Enhancement of magnetization and optical properties of CuFe2O4/ZnFe2O4 core/shell nanostructure
Résumé
nanostructure composite was prepared by hydrothermal method. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, transmission electron microscope imaging, energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), and Fourier transform infrared techniques were used to prove the phase formation, morphology, elemental analysis, and cation distribution of core/shell structure, respectively. Furthermore, measurement of the optical properties proved the decrease of photoluminescence (PL) efficiency. The magnetic measurements showed an enhancement of the magnetization by about 63% relative to pure Cu ferrite, and the magnetization curve exhibited superparamagnetic behavior. These results were explained in terms of the depression of the magnetic dead layer thickness in the core/shell structure. The results unleash the promising applications of the prepared samples as transformer cores in the high frequency range and as a photocatalytic agent for water purification and hydrogen production.
