Role of dysprosium in enhancing the humidity sensing performance in manganese zinc ferrites for sensor applications

In the present scenario, ferrites are widely used for humidity sensor applications. Aiming this, we have prepared Dy3+-doped Mn–Zn ferrites by solution combustion method combining urea and glucose as burning agent. And obtained powder was characterized by several physicochemical techniques. The phase purity was confirmed by using the techniques such as X-ray powder diffraction and infrared spectroscopy. FTIR spectra show 2 prominent absorption...
