Abstract:

In this paper, we present a room temperature two-step electrochemical process for the deposition of large area ( sim

10 cm²) nanocrystalline ferrite thin films. As an example, the optimized conditions for the deposition of copper, nickel and cobalt ferrites on different conducting substrates and their physical properties are reviewed. The films are spinel in crystal structure and well adherent to the substrates. The electrical and magnetic properties of the films after annealing are comparable to the properties obtained with the films formed with other physical and chemical techniques.

Keywords: ferrite thin films; electrochemical synthesis; physical properties
