Microwave synthesis of ferrite materials integrates the synthetic technology for information storage materials. Microwave route is adopted for the synthesis of nanosized NiFe2O4 using urea as a fuel. Nickel oxalates and iron oxalates were prepared by dissolving nickel and iron salt in oxalic acid solution. These two oxalates are irradiated with microwaves using urea as a fuel to get cubic NiFe2O4 particles. The structure of the prepared sample is studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD) which shows crystalline cubic structure, Morphology of the sample is viewed by Scanning electron micrograph (SEM) which shows spherical particles with compact and globular arrangement. MetalOxygen and metal-metal bonding is studied by infrared (IR) technique.
