A specific absorption rate of fractal-like assemblies of iron oxide nanoparticles in alternating magnetic field has been calculated using stochastic Landau-Lifshitz equation which simultaneously takes into account both the presence of thermal fluctuations of the nanoparticle magnetic moments, and strong magneto-dipole interaction between the nanoparticles of the clusters. No appreciable difference in the magnetic properties of various types of fractal clusters has been revealed. It is also found that the specific absorption rate of dilute assemblies of fractal clusters shows only weak dependence on the number of the nanoparticles within the clusters.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
