Abstract: Structural, Morphological and Optical properties of rare earth La3+ material doped in Cobalt-Zinc nanoferrites are studied, Co0.5Zn0.5 LaxFe2-xO4 (where x=0.025, 0.050, 0.075, 0.100, 0.125) reaction nanocrystalline ferrites were synthesized by sol-gel auto combustion method. The XRD charecterisation gives the particle size and it was calculated from XRD by Scherrers formula. The X-ray diffraction pattern of all the samples provide the information about the particle size of synthesised samples were found to be decreases with the increase in La3+concentration. The SEM and TEM of synthesised samples confirms that formation of nanopartocles. The SEM micrograph shows the uniform particle distribution. The hexagonal nature of particles observed from the TEM micrograph. . The optical properties of synthesised samples were investigated from UV visible spectra. The FTIR spectra are also studied and absorption bond is observed at 600 cm-1.

Keywords: sol-gel auto combustion method, Co-Zn ferrite, SEM, TEM, XRD, FTIR,
