Synthesis, and measurement of structural and magnetic properties, of La sub(1-x)Cd sub(x)CoO sub(3) perovskite ceramic oxides

Perovskite-type Cd-doped LaCoO sub(3) materials were synthesized by a simple solution-based combustion process. The synthesized materials were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), diffuse reflectance (DR) in the UV-VIS, and magnetic property measuremen...

Description
Summary:	Perovskite-type Cd-doped LaCoO sub(3) materials were synthesized by a simple solution-based combustion process. The synthesized materials were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), diffuse reflectance (DR) in the UV-VIS, and magnetic property measurements. The parent LaCoO sub(3) compound showed spin-glass transition at low temperatures, and with progressive Cd doping, showed transition to paramagnetic ordering. The changes in magnetic properties of the materials are correlated to the changes in structural features resulting from the Rietveld structural refinement of the materials.
