The magnetic properties of ultra-small (3 nm) CoFe(2)O(4) nanoparticles have been investigated by DC magnetization measurements as a function temperature and field. main features the behaviour are blocking non-interacting particle moments (zero-field-cooled T(max) approximately 40 K), rapid increase saturation (up to values higher than for bulk material) at low T an in anisotropy below 30 K due appearance exchange bias. is determined random freezing surface spins. Localized spin-canting...
The spin-flop transition of acicular hematite nanoparticles different size synthesized by chemical route and annealed at temperatures has been investigated as a function temperature. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) measurements show that particles have an ellipsoidal shape, with major axis $330\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}50\mathrm{nm}$ minor $70\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}10\mathrm{nm}.$ TEM x-ray diffraction experiments are made crystallites, which grow on increasing the annealing...

Magnetic interactions in silica coated spherical nanoporous assemblies of CoFe2O4 nanoparticles have been investigated by low temperature field dependent remanent magnetization (MDCD and MIRM) relaxation measurements. The synthesis procedure leads to the formation aggregates about 50–60 nm diameter composed hexagonal shaped nanocrystals with shared edges. negative deviation from non-interacting case Henkel plot indicates predominance dipole–dipole favouring demagnetized state, although...
The thermal decomposition of acetylacetonate precursors is one the most employed syntheses to prepare high quality colloidal magnetic nanoparticles. In this paper, an advanced version synthetic approach was developed cobalt ferrite nanoparticles, introducing for first time a rigorous control on commonly neglected reaction parameter, that is, residual oxygen content in environment. A new concept derived from statistical analysis S(T)EM images, i.e., so-called aspects maps, introduced: tool...
The magnetic properties of ultra-small (~2 nm) δ-(Fe(0.67)Mn(0.33))OOH nanoparticles prepared by a microemulsion technique have been investigated magnetization and ac susceptibility measurements at variable frequency. results provide evidence two different regimes whose onset is identified maxima in the zero-field-cooled susceptibility: large one, centered ~150 K (T(mh)), narrow one ~30 (T(ml)). temperatures exhibit frequency dependence: T(mh) follows Vogel-Fulcher law τ =...
In this work, we studied the dynamic and static magnetic properties of ZnO-core/CoFe2O4-shell CoO-core/CoFe2O4-shell nanoparticles. Both systems are formed by a core ∼4 nm diameter encapsulated in shell ∼2 thickness.

Magnetic remanence studies revealed presence weak dipolar interparticle interactions, where Hint approximately −0.1 kOe for ZnO/CoFe2O4 −0.9 CoO/CoFe2O4, playing...
ZnO-core/CoFe2O4-shell nanoparticles of 7.4 nm average size have been synthesized and their magnetic properties compared to those CoO-core/CoFe2O4-shell with similar morphology. The coercive field values are much lower than for CoO/CoFe2O4 (e.g., at 5 K: Hc = 7.8 kOe ZnO/CoFe2O4; 27.8 CoO/CoFe2O4). nature the is explained by a phenomenological model free energy non-magnetic core, or an antiferromagnetic encapsulated hard ferrimagnetic shell.
Carbonated hydroxyapatite (CHA)-coated titanium can find wide applications as bone substitute implant in and dental surgery orthopedics, promoting osseointegration with a host ensuring biocompatibility bioactivity.

Nowadays, a wide number of applications based on magnetic materials rely the properties arising at interface between different layers in complex heterostructures engineered nanoscale. In ferromagnetic/heavy metal multilayers, such as [Co/Pt]N and [Co/Pd]N systems, proximity effect was demonstrated to be asymmetric, thus inducing moment Pt (Pd) layer that is typically higher top Co/Pt(Pd) interface. this work, advanced spectroscopic imaging techniques were combined with theoretical approaches...
