Research on nickel ferrite nanostructures has drawn a great interest because of its inherent chemical,
physical and electronic properties. In this study, we have synthesized rhombohedronelike nickel ferrite
nanostructure by a rapid microwave assisted combustion method using ethylenediamminetetraacetic
acid as a chelating agent. X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectrometer, transmission elec-tron microscope and energy dispersive X-ray microanalyser were used to characterize the prepared
sample. The magnetic behaviour was analysed by means offield dependent magnetization measurement
which indicates that the prepared sample exhibits a soft ferromagnetic nature with sat...
