Synthesis and Characterization of CoBaO2.70 Nanoparticle with Ferromagnetic Properties

Abstract

In this research we report synthesis of new Barium- Cobalt precursor complex with 2,6- pyridine dicarboxylic acid (dipic).Thecomplex[Ba(H2O)6][Co(dipic)2[(1)has been characterized using spectral methods (FT-IR, UV–Vis),elemental analysis and Cyclic voltammetric (CV) method. Also in this study we report thermal decomposition of inorganic precursor complex of (1).Characterization of the binary oxide nanoparticlewas carried out usingFourier Transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM),Vibrating sample maghetometer (VSM)and energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX). The X-ray diffraction pattern at room temperature revealed that, highly pure and crystallized BaCoO2.70in orthorhombicstructure with a=4.2300 Å, b=4.3500 Å and c=11.3200 Å.
