Abstract :
The structural and dielectric properties of magnesium substituted nickel ferrite having the general formula of Ni1-xMgxFe2O4 (x = 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0) has been studied as function of Mg ion concentration. The samples were prepared by sol-gel auto-combustion method The powder X-ray diffraction patterns confirm single phase cubic structure. The variation of lattice constant ´a´ increases with Mg content x, the average particle size of these ferrites as determined from Scherrer´s relation and TEM is in the range of few ten nanometer. The dielectric constant decreases with increase in frequency and Mg content x. The dispersion of dielectric constant was discussed in the light of Koop´s theory.
