Abstract

Fe and Fe{sub 3}O{sub 4} nanowires have been synthesized by thermal decomposition of Fe(CO){sub 5}, followed by heat treatments. The Fe wires are formed through the aggregation of nanoparticles generated by decomposition of Fe(CO){sub 5}. A core-shell structure with an iron oxide shell and Fe core is observed for the as-prepared Fe wires. Annealing in air leads to the formation of Fe{sub 2}O{sub 3}/Fe{sub 3}O{sub 4} wires, which after heat treatment in a N{sub 2}/alcohol atmosphere form Fe{sub 3}O{sub 4} wires with a sharp Verwey [Nature (London) 144, 327 (1939)] transition at 125 K. The Fe{sub 3}O{sub 4} wires have coercivities of 261 and 735 Oe along the wire axis at RT and 5 K, respectively. The large increase of coercivity at 5 K as compared to RT is due to the increase of anisotropy resulting from the Verwey transition.

Long Fe{sub 3}O{sub 4} nanowires decorated by CdTe quantum dots: Synthesis and magnetic-optical properties

Journal Article Lan Xianmei ; Cao Xuebo ; Qian Wenhu ; ... - Journal of Solid State Chemistry

This work describes the synthesis and magnetic-optical properties of Fe{sub 3}O{sub 4} nanowires decorated by CdTe quantum dots. The composite nanowires with a length of 1 {mu}m and an average diameter of 23{+-}3 nm were prepared in a high yield through the preferential growth of Fe{sub 3}O{sub 4} on CdTe quantum dots using ethylenediamine as template. Their growth mechanism was discussed based on the results of control experiments. Studies on the optical and magnetic properties of the composite nanowires reveal that they assume not only yellow-green emission feature but also room temperature ferromagnetism. - Graphical abstract: The long and flexiblemore »« less
Magnetic properties of quadruple perovskite solid solutions Ca{sub 1–x}Y{sub x}Cu{sub 3}Fe{sub 4}O{sub 12} and Y{sub 1–y}Ce{sub x}Cu{sub 3}Fe{sub 4}O{sub 12}

Journal Article Murakami, Makoto ; Mori, Shigeo ; Yamada, Ikuya, E-mail: i-yamada@21c.osakafu-u.ac.jp - AIP Conference Proceedings

Magnetic properties of the quadruple perovskite solid solutions Ca{sub 1–x}Y{sub x}Cu{sub 3}Fe{sub 4}O{sub 12} and Y{sub 1–y}Ce{sub y}Cu{sub 3}Fe{sub 4}O{sub 12} are investigated. Ca{sub 1–x}Y{sub x}Cu{sub 3}Fe{sub 4}O{sub 12} shows continuous increase in the ferromagnetic transition temperature as x increases. Y{sub 1–y}Ce{sub y}Cu{sub 3}Fe{sub 4}O{sub 12} exhibits a ferromagnetic-antiferromagnetic transition in the vicinity of y = 0.5. These observations demonstrate the electron doping effect on magnetic properties of charge-disproportionated ACu{sub 3}Fe{sub 4}O{sub 12} phases.

Epitaxial growth and magnetic properties of Fe{sub 3}O{sub 4} films on TiN buffered Si(001), Si(110), and Si(111) substrates

Journal Article Xiang Hua ; Shi Fengyuan ; Voyles, Paul M. ; ... - Applied Physics Letters

Epitaxial Fe{sub 3}O{sub 4} thin films were grown on TiN buffered Si(001), Si(110), and Si(111) substrates by dc reactive sputtering deposition. Both Fe{sub 3}O{sub 4} films and TiN buffer are fully epitaxial when grown at substrate temperatures above 150 deg. C, with textured single phase Fe{sub 3}O{sub 4} resulting from room temperature growth. The initial sputtered Fe{sub 3}O{sub 4} formed nuclei islands and then coalesced to epitaxial columnar grains with increasing film thickness. The magnetization decreases and the coercive field increases with decreasing film thickness. There is no in-plane magnetic anisotropy of epitaxial Fe{sub 3}O{sub 4}(001) on Si(001) but Fe{submore »« less

Growth temperature effect on the structural and magnetic properties of Fe{sub 3}O{sub 4} films grown by the self-template method

Journal Article Takahashi, R., E-mail: rtaka@issp.u-tokyo.ac.jp ; Misumi, H. ; Lippmaa, M. - Journal of Applied Physics

We have investigated the effect of growth temperature on the structure, surface morphology, and magnetic properties of Fe{sub 3}O{sub 4} thin films grown on SrTiO{sub 3}(001) substrates by a self-template method. To eliminate the intermixing of (001) and (111) orientations that usually occurs in spinel films grown on perovskite substrates, a thin self-template layer of (001)-oriented Fe{sub 3}O{sub 4} was deposited on a SrTiO{sub 3}(001) substrate at 400 °C prior to the main film growth at temperatures of up to 1100 °C. Increasing the growth temperature from 400 °C to 1100 °C resulted in greatly improved crystallinity of the Fe{sub 3}O{sub 4} thin films,more »« less
