Magnetic properties of CoO nanoparticles

Abstract: Abstract. The magnetic circular X-ray dichroism (MCXD) of CoO nanoparticles was measured at low temperatures and in high magnetic fields. The particles show a superparamagnetic behaviour at room temperature, and a large orbital contribution to the magnetic moment at low temperatures was observed. This enhancement of orbital magnetism is largely determined by the contribution of the surface atoms. The larger spin-orbit coupling of the electrons of the surface atoms of the particle can cause a change in magnetic… Show more

“…27 The sizable contribution of the orbital moment to the magnetic moment is a distinct trend of nanoparticle systems. 35 They have reported that the enhancement of orbital magnetism is largely determined by the contribution of surface atoms and the larger spin-orbit coupling of the electrons at surface atoms in the nanoparticle can affect the magnetic ordering in the nanoparticles. 35 Figure 7͑a͒ shows the Fe 2p-3d XMCD spectra of the ZnO:Fe nanoparticles measured at various magnetic fields.…”

“…How the oxidation influences the magnetic properties is of crucial interest from a fundamental as well as applied point of view and has been studied intensively over the past decade. For example, enhanced orbital-to-spin magnetic moments were found for deposited, oxide covered Co nanoparticles due to uncompensated moments at the Co/CoO interface [7][8][9]. A large effective additional anisotropy was reported for similar Co core, CoO shell nanoparticles if embedded into an antiferromagnetic CoO matrix [10].…”

“…Such magnetism was really observed and attracted the attention of the researchers due to possible its practical use. During the last decades the results on NiO 3,4,5,6,7 , MnO 8 , Cr 2 O 3 4 , CoO 9,10,11 , Fe 2 O 3 4 , CuO 12 and ferritin 13,14,15 have been published. Large magnetic moments were found and phenomena peculiar, especially for antiferromagnets were observed, such as superparamagnetism and exchange bias.…”
