Role of cobalt cations in short range antiferromagnetic Co3O4 nanoparticles: a thermal treatment approach to affecting phonon and magnetic properties

Abstract: We report the phonon and magnetic properties of various well-stabilized Co3O4 nanoparticles. The net valence in cobalt (II)/(III) cation can be obtained by subtracting the Co2+ ions in tetrahedral interstices and Co3+ ions in the octahedral interstices, respectively, which will possess spatial inhomogeneity of its magnetic moment via Co2+ in tetrahedra and Co3+ in octahedral configurations in the normal spinel structure. Furthermore, the distribution of Co2+/Co3+ governed by various external (magnetic field an… Show more

“…Actually, Co 3 O 4 is prone to exhibit vacancies 33 and, in the case of bulk Co 3 O 4 , Co migration is vacancy-mediated (i.e., via Co 3+ vacancies). 34,35 For a more detailed structural characterization, three samples were investigated: an as-deposited film, a film treated at −200 V for 30 min (where the effects of voltage are maximized), and a sample treated at −50 V for 30 min and subsequently fully recovered (i.e., brought back to the paramagnetic state) by applying +100 V for 60 min. Full recovery from the sample treated at −200 V would require positive voltages higher than the ones available in our setup, hence the recovery was investigated in a sample treated at −50 V. Scanning electron microscopy ( Figure S3) and θ/2θ X-ray diffraction ( Figure S4 and Table S1) indicate that the ion migration mechanism is, at least partially, grain-boundarymediated (see the Supporting Information).…”

“…В отличие от образцов № 1 и 2 полевая зависимость намагниченности образца № 3 при 4 K изменяется линейно с приложенным полем с нулевой коэрцитивной силой и остаточной величиной намагниченности, что соответствует поведению объемного материала ниже температуры Нееля T N [30]. Отсутствие ферромагнетизма в образце № 3 свидетельствует о малом количестве некомпенсированных магнитных моментов в интерфейсах наночастиц.…”

“…Наблюдается расхождение линий ZFC и FC при температурах T ir r ∼ 70 и 60 K соответственно (таблица). Сходное температурно-зависимое поведение намагниченности было зарегистрировано в нескольких экспериментальных кривых ZFC−FC для наночастиц Co 3 O 4 [17][18][19][20][21][22]30]. Расхождение линий ZFC и FC может быть отнесено к спин-стекловидному поведению некомпенсированных спинов на поверхности нанокристаллов.…”
