Magnetite nanoparticles have been synthesized by a co-precipitation method under magnetic fields (0~1 T) at room temperature. The as-prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and their microstructure analysis were evaluated on a Mössbauer spectrum. It was found that the Fe 3 O 4 samples produced under a magnetic field of 1 T had a much higher saturation magnetization (15.3 emu/g) than those produced under 0.6 T (7.56 emu/g) and 0 T magnetic fields (6.59 emu/g). This interesting result implies that magnetic fields can affect the growth of Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles and further change the microstructure and crystallinity of Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles. It is expected that this process could also be a promising technique to improve the magnetic properties of other magnetic materials.

By combining the unique microstructure of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with the good magnetism of CoFe 2 O 4 ferrites, CoFe 2 O 4/CNTs nanocomposites were prepared by the solvothermal method for the application of targeting therapy and tumor hyperthermia. X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermal gravity analysis (TGA), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) were introduced to study the influence of the solvothermal temperature, time and the CNTs content on the microstructure and magnetic properties of CoFe 2 O 4/CNTs nanocomposites. The diameter of CoFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles coating on the surface of CNTs and the saturation magnetization (Ms) increased with the solvothermal temperature. CoFe 2 O 4/CNTs nanocomposites prepared at 180°C, 200°C and 220°C exhibited superparamagnetism at room temperature, while the samples prepared at 240°C and 260°C presented ferromagnetism. And the solvothermal time and CNTs content slightly affected the microstructure and magnetic properties, Ms and coercivity (Hc) increased slightly with the increasing solvothermal time and the decreasing CNTs content.

Non toxicity, bio compatibility and nanometer sizes regime which is comparable to the size of a cell, makes nanocrystalline Co ferrites particles very proficient. In the present research Zn doped cobalt ferrites were prepared by the chemical co-precipitation method and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) at room temperature for structural analysis. X-ray diffraction patterns confirmed the FCC spinel structure of synthesized particles. Crystallite sizes were calculated from the most intense peak (311) using the Debye-Scherrer formula. The obtained crystallite sizes were in nanometer range for all the samples synthesized at reaction temperature of 70°C. Then samples were sintered at 550°C for 2 hours, characterized again by X-ray diffraction at room temperature. The crystallite sizes and lattice constants for all the samples were calculated again from the data obtained by XRD. DC electrical resistivity and AC electrical transport properties were analyzed. The magnetic properties such as coercivity (Hc) and remanence (Mr) of Co1-xZnxFe2O4for x = 0.0, 0.2, 0.4 were measured at room temperature by vibrating sample magnetometer. Coercivity and remanence were found maximum with minimum value of Zn in Co1-xZnxFe2O4.Observed structural and conduction properties of synthesized nanomaterials were correlated.

Nanosized LaFeO3material was prepared by 3 methods: high energy milling, citrate gel, and coprecipitation. The X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) show that the orthorhombic LaFeO3phase was well formed at a low sintering temperature of 500°C in the citrate-gel and co-precipitation methods. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) observations indicate that the particle size of the LaFeO3powder varies from 10 nm to 50 nm depending on the preparation method. The magnetic properties through magnetization versus temperatureM(T)and magnetization verses magnetic fieldM(H)characteristics show that the nano-LaFeO3exhibits a weak ferromagnetic behavior in the room temperature, and theM(H)curves are well fitted by Langevin functions.

Nanocrystalline Fe-Co alloy powders, which were prepared by high-energy mechanical milling, were nitrided under the mixing gas of NH3/H2 in the temperature range from 380°C to 510°C. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to analyze the grain size and reaction during the processing. The magnetic properties of the nitrided powders were measured by Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM). The results show that with the appearance of Fe4N phase after nitride treatment, and the grain-size of FeCo phase decreases with the increase of nitridation temperature between 380°C to 450°C.The saturation magnetization of nitrided alloy powder treated at 480°C is about 18% higher than that of the initial Fe-Co alloy powder, accompanied by the reduction of the coercivity. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) was used, attempting to further analyze the effect of Fe4N phase on microstructure and magnetic properties of the powder mixtures.

Gallic acid-modified magnetites were synthesized by one and two-step reactions via the newly developed sonochemical co-precipitation method. The two-step reaction included the formation of magnetite powder and mixing the magnetite powder with gallic acid solution, while the one-step reaction did not go through the formation magnetite powder. The obtained gallic acid-modified magnetites were characterized by the Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, the X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and the Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). More over, the magnetic properties were studied by using a Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM). The characterization results showed that there were differences in crystalinity, surface morphology and magnetic properties of products that were formed by one and two-step reactions.

A facile method was successfully developed to prepare Ternary oxynitride of iron and gallium. Initially mixed oxyhydroxides of Iron and gallium were prepared by co-precipitation method. Then this was nitrided using urea and agar in presence of ammonia at 900°C, which gave mixed cation oxynitride . This mixed oxynitride was characterized using XRD, XPS and SEM. The X-ray diffraction pattern of the Fex’GaxOyNz phase was refined within the cubic spinel structure (space group Fd-3m), using the fullprof program. On assuming 3+ oxidation state for half of iron and whole of gallium, the chemical composition of the oxynitride spinel determined by the X-ray analysis is Fe2GaN2O2. The refinement using these parameters resulted in a good fit to the observed diffraction data, with a crystallographic R factor of 5.92. This ternary oxynitride of iron and gallium is a novel material which can give unique optical and magnetic properties.
