AbstractThe phase composition, the structure of cores and shells, dependences shell thickness on fabrication technique were determined by Mössbauer spectroscopy for core/shell Fe_3O_4/γ-Fe_2O_3 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) with Fe_3O_4 a fixed size (8 nm) γ-Fe_2O_3 shells varying (1, 3, or 5 nm). A layer MNP surface state differing from that in bulk was found. It also found spin-glass probably exists between core shell. The studied MNPs have promising applications various fields (e.g., biomedicine).
