Abstract
Magnetic properties of ultrafine ZnFe2O4 particles obtained from mechanosyn thesis of the precursor oxides are presented. The ordering temperature of a s-milled sample is T-N approximate to 115(10) K, and extends over a Delta T approximate to 60 K range. This behavior can be explained by oxygen vacanc ies and local disorder at Fe sites resulting from the milling process. Magn etic coupling between ordered and disordered phases is discussed.
