The compiled record

The paper's own sentences, arranged. Each label is drawn from a closed vocabulary; the number beside it is the probability the classifier gave that label. Numbers in the tables are the authors', checked by code. No sentence in this record was written by a model.

The abstract, sentence by sentence

arXiv listing abstract v1. Results and the main claim are underlined; .

We fabricated NiFe2O thin films on MgAl2O4 (001) substrates by reactive dc magnetron co-sputtering in a pure oxygen atmosphere at different substrate temperatures. The film properties were investigated by various techniques with a focus on their structure, surface topography, magnetic characteristics, and transport properties. Structural analysis revealed a good crystallization with epitaxial growth and low roughness and a similar quality as in films grown by pulsed laser deposition. Electrical conductivity measurements showed high room temperature resistivity (12 Ohmm), but low activation energy, indicating an extrinsic transport mechanism. A band gap of about 1.55 eV was found by optical spectroscopy. Detailed x-ray spectroscopy studies confirmed the samples to be ferrimagnetic with fully compensated Fe moments. By comparison with multiplet calculations of the spectra we found that the cation valencies are to a large extent Ni2+ and Fe3+.
