	abstract = {<p>The properties of nanocrystalline Ni(0.5)Zn(0.5)Fe(2)O(4) synthesized by an auto-combustion method have been investigated by magnetic measurements and Mossbauer spectroscopy. The as-synthesized single phase nanosized ferrite powder is annealed at different temperatures in the range 673-1,273 K to obtain nanoparticles of different sizes. The powders are characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, vibrating sample magnetometer, transmission electron microscopy and Mossbauer spectroscopy. The as-synthesized powder with average particle size of similar to 9 nm is superparamagnetic. Magnetic transition temperature increases up to 665 K for the nanosized powder as compared to the transition temperature of 548 K for the bulk ferrite. This has been confirmed as due to the abnormal cation distribution, as evidenced from room temperature Mossbauer spectroscopic studies.</p>},

	abstract = {<p>Metal/ferrite nanocomposites (M/MFe2O4; M = Co, Ni), consisting of nanoparticles of a metal and the corresponding metal ferrite, have been synthesized under in situ conditions by a simple and single step process. The metal/ferrite nanocomposites embedded in a polymer matrix have been prepared by a simple hot-pressing method. The performance parameters such as magnetization, coercivity, permeability and dielectric constant of the two- and three-phase nanocomposite systems are compared. The coercivity increases and the permeability decreases with increasing polymer content in the three-phase composite. Enhancement of the dielectric constant is observed at low frequencies.</p>},
