Mu. Islam et al., EMPIRICAL ESTIMATES OF PHYSICAL PARAMETERS FROM ELECTRICAL-RESISTIVITY MEASUREMENTS ON FERRITES, Modern physics letters B, 10(7), 1996, pp. 299-303
Measurements on the electrical resistivity of Mn1-xZnxFe2O4 ferrites w
ith 0 < x < 0.15 in the temperature range 300 K < T < 450 K, have been
carried out. Analysis of the normalised electrical resistivity of the
se ferrites shows deviations from linearity both at low and high tempe
ratures. There exists a deviation in the electrical resistivity at 300
It at high zinc concentration which may be due to hopping of electron
s between Fe+2 and Fe+3 ions at octahedral sites.
