Exchange Bias, Memory and Freezing Effects in NiFe2O4 Nanoparticles

Exchange Bias, Memory and Freezing Effects in NiFe2O4 Nanoparticles

Single-phase NiFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles embedded in SiO 2 matrix have been synthesized by sol-gel method. Average particle size lies in the range 8–12 nm. Magnetic measurements are taken by SQUID-magnetometer with a maximum applied field of ±7 T and temperature down to 4.2 K. An exchange bias effect i...

Zusammenfassung:Single-phase NiFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles embedded in SiO 2 matrix have been synthesized by sol-gel method. Average particle size lies in the range 8–12 nm. Magnetic measurements are taken by SQUID-magnetometer with a maximum applied field of ±7 T and temperature down to 4.2 K. An exchange bias effect in nanoparticles is due to the existence of strong core-shell interactions and it vanishes as the particle size decreases (
