Effects of annealing temperature on the magnetic properties of highly crystalline biphase iron oxide nanorods
Abstract
We report on the effects of annealing temperatures ranging from 225 °C to 325 °C on the magnetic properties of high aspect ratio iron oxide nanorods consisting of a ferrimagnetic Fe 3 O 4 phase and an antiferromagnetic α-Fe 2 O 3 phase in an as-prepared state. Annealing at the aforementioned temperatures under a constant flow of O 2 for 3 h leads to an increment of the volume fraction of the antiferromagnetic α-Fe 2 O 3 phase and concomitant enhancement of the crystallinity of the ferrimagnetic Fe 3 O 4 phase. These opposing effects compete with each other, resulting in a decrease in global magnetization with increasing the annealing temperature. The desirable magnetic properties are achieved for the sample annealed at 250 °C. For all samples investigated, we observed an increase in low field magnetization at low temperatures after the sample is field cooled in the presence of a 1T magnetic field, which we attribute to the ordering of macro-spins of the weakly ordered antiferromagnetic α-Fe 2 O 3 phase in the presence of the cooling field. Our study will pave the way for determining the optimal conditions to enhance the magnetic characteristics in iron oxide nanorods, which willmore »
