Magnetic nanoflowers are densely packed aggregates of superferromagnetically coupled iron oxide nanocrystallites, which excel during magnetic hyperthermia experiments. Here, we investigate the nature of the moment coupling within a powder…
Using a novel protocol for mixing oppositely charged colloids and macromolecules, magnetic clusters and rods are fabricated using 10 nm-iron oxide nanoparticles and polymers. Here, we show that as the dispersions undergo the so-called…
Controlled assembly of single-crystal, colloidal maghemite nanoparticles is facilitated via a high-temperature polyol-based pathway. Structural characterization shows that size-tunable nanoclusters of 50 and 86 nm diameters (D), with high…
A model is developed with the aim of analyzing interacting superparamagnets. Model is built from magnetic dipolar interaction and demagnetizing mean field concepts. A useful expression for effective demagnetizing factors is achieved, which…
We determine the effective dipolar interaction between single domain two-dimensional ferromagnetic particles (islands or dots), taking into account their finite size. The first correction term decays as 1/D^5, where D is the distance…
Non-polar magnetic nanoparticles agglomerate upon cooling. This process is followed by in-situ small angle X-ray scattering to assess structural properties of the emerging agglomerates. On the length scale of a few particle diameters, no…
We report electronic and magnetic structure of arsenic-doped manganese clusters from density-functional theory using generalized gradient approximation for the exchange-correlation energy. We find that arsenic stabilizes manganese clusters,…
We present a joint experimental and theoretical characterization of the magnetic properties of coordination clusters with an antiferromagnetic core of four magnetic ions. Two different compounds are analyzed, with Co and Mn ions in the…
Ensembles of gold nanoparticles present a magnetic behavior which is at odds with the weakly diamagnetic response of bulk gold. In particular, an unusual ferromagnetic order has been unveiled by several experiments. Here we investigate if…
For superparamagnetic nanoparticles (SMNPs), it is often claimed that the rapid thermal fluctuations of their magnetic moments negates the magnetic dipolar attraction, hence preventing aggregation in liquid suspension. However we find that…
A specific absorption rate of a dilute assembly of various random clusters of iron oxide nanoparticles in alternating magnetic field has been calculated using Landau- Lifshitz stochastic equation. This approach simultaneously takes into…
Few examples of magnetic systems displaying a transition to pure dipolar magnetic order are known to date, and single-molecule magnets can provide an interesting example. The molecular cluster spins and thus their dipolar interaction energy…
Using spin polarized density functional theory (DFT) based calculations, combined with ab-initio molecular dynamics simulation, we carry out a systematic investigation of the bimetallic Ni$_{13-n}$Ag$_n$ nano clusters, for all compositions.…
We examine binary mixtures of superparamagnetic colloidal particles confined to a two-dimensional water-air interface both by real-space experiments and Monte-Carlo computer simulations at high coupling strength. In the simulations, the…
We have studied the properties of clusters of colloidal magnetic particles generated from a 2D aggregation model with dipolar interparticle interactions. Particles diffuse off-lattice, experiencing dipolar interactions with the already…
We model the stabilization of clusters and lattices of cuboidal particles with long-ranged magnetic dipolar and short-ranged surface interactions. Two realistic systems were considered: one with magnetization orientated in the [001]…
We have determined the temperature evolution of the spin and orbital moments in the zero magnetization ferromagnet Sm$_{1-x}$Gd$_x$Al$_2$ (x = 0.024) by combining polarized and unpolarized single crystal neutron diffraction data. The…
The magnetic, transport, and structural properties of (Ga,Cr)As are reported. Zincblende Ga$_{1-x}$Cr$_{x}$As was grown by low-temperature molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). At low concentrations, x$\sim$0.1, the materials exhibit unusual…
Effects of alloying on the electronic and magnetic properties of Mn$_{x}$Co$_{y}$ ($x+y$=$n$=2-5; $x$=0-$n$) and Mn$_2$Co$_{11}$ nanoalloy clusters are investigated using the density functional theory (DFT). Unlike the bulk alloy, the…
Thin films of silver containing 0.3 - 1.5 at % Fe have been prepared by vapor co-deposition. Depending on substrate temperature and iron concentration we could systematically follow the formation of nanometer size clusters of iron from…
