  CoEr0.0.25Fe1.975O4, CoFe2O4/0.1GR, and CoEr0.0.25Fe1.975O4/0.1GR nanoparticles were synthesized by using citrate auto combustion technique. The structure, morphology, magnetic and thermo-electrical properties of obtained nanocomposites have been examined using the Xray diffraction technique, Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and vibrating sample magnetometer. Introducing graphene into the CoFe2O4 decreases the particle size and increases the magnetization of the system. The increase in the magnetic moment and hence the saturation magnetization can be attributed to the grafting of functional groups or adatoms to the graphene planes or to the edge bonds. The main mechanism of adatom chemisorption on .. Read More»
