Magnetic Properties Of Polycrystalline Spinel Oxides From Solid State Reaction, Camden Olds May 2023

Magnetic Properties Of Polycrystalline Spinel Oxides From Solid State Reaction, Camden Olds

Honors Theses

Spinel crystal materials of nickel, cobalt, and iron oxides have seen abundant research for their strong conductivity, ferromagnetic and ferroelectric properties, and their catalytic uses. These can be synthesized by a number of means. This project explores the use of the solid state synthesis method, which benefits from simplicity, of this family of materials, looking for interesting phase shift lines in the triangle between of varying compositions of these three metals.

Nickel cobaltite and other related spinels were synthesized from two different solid state approaches and characterized using XRD and SQUID magnetometry. The range 0.5-0.6 of molar ratios of nickel …

Stem Club, Rohan Tatineni, Kevin Prososki

Honors Expanded Learning Clubs

The goal of STEM club is to teach the students various basic scientific principles and relate them to experiments and the real world. In addition, the scientific method will be taught and be a main focus of the club along with the engineering design process.
