After (InGdx)O powder with a wide x range of 0 to 10 at.% was chemically produced, (InGdx)O thin films were evaporated under ultra-vacuum using an electron beam apparatus. We investigated the influence of the Gd doping concentration on the magnetic, optical, electrical, and structural properties of the resultant InO deposits.

X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements revealed the crystallization of the entire ferrites either in the tetragonal structure, such as in the case of CuFeO, or cubic spinels such as in other studied ferrites. The Fourier transform infrared spectral study revealed the characteristic vibration bands of ferrites.
