Preparation of magnetic nanoparticles by hydrothermal method
Repko, Anton ; Nižňanský, Daniel (advisor) ; Buršík, Josef (referee) ; del Puerto Morales, Maria (referee)
Hydrothermal method of nanoparticle preparation, involving oleic acid, has received certain attention in the last years. However, the published works lack systematic approach to the subject, and the mechanism was not thoroughly investigated, so as to achieve a predictable outcome of the synthesis. The present work investigated the influence of composition of organic and water phase on the synthesis of cobalt ferrite (cobalt(II)-iron(III) oxide) and magnetite nanoparticles, and the mechanism of nanoparticle formation was proposed. Organic phase was based on pentanol, octanol or toluene, containing the precursor - metal oleate. Besides hydrophobic particles, it was even possible to directly prepare hydrophilic oleate-coated particles by using water phase with sodium oleate. Synthetic procedure was then simplified by a separate preparation of cobalt-iron oleate, which led also to a product of narrower size distribution and better phase purity. Size control in the range of 6-11 nm and a batch yield of ca. 500 mg was achieved. Attention was given also to the surface modification of the particles, thus imparting them hydrophilicity. Small di- or tricarboxylic acids were utilized, as well as carboxylmethyl dextran and titanium dioxide. Titanium dioxide required additional protection with...

Structure and magnetism of transition metal-based nanoparticles
Mantlíková, Alice
The aim of the work is characterization of structure and magnetic properties of various CoFe2O4/SiO2 nanocomposites. Emphasis was put on the corelation of the magnetic properties with particle size (samples with different annealing temperature) and with strenght of the interparticle interactions (samples with different Fe/Si ratio or without silica matrix). Structure properties of all samples were determinated by powder x-ray diffraction, scanning and transmission electron microscopy. Magnetic properties were determinated by standard (temperature dependence of magnetization, magnetization isotherms) and advanced (a.c. susceptibility, memory effects) magnetic measurements. A sharp increase of the values of blocking temperature and coercivity with increase of strenght of the interparticle interactions and with increase of particle size was observed. Particle size determines the maximum value of coercivity and blocking temperature and strengh of the interparticle interactions shift this values in the interval determined by particle size.

Nuclear magnetic resonance in magnetic systems
Křišťan, Petr ; Štěpánková, Helena (advisor) ; Mašláň, Miroslav (referee) ; Schneeweiss, Oldřich (referee)
Title: NMR in magnetic systems Author: Petr Křišťan Department: Department of Low Temperature Physics Supervisor: prof. RNDr. Helena Štěpánková, CSc. Abstract: Magnetically ordered iron oxides, namely magnetite, maghemite, hexagonal ferrite M or system Fe-B, with nano or submicron dimensions of particles are the main subject of study of the presented thesis. The materials were investigated mainly by 57 Fe nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The results were thoroughly analyzed and compared with the results obtained by other methods (Mössbauer spectroscopy, ZFC/FC magnetic measurement, X-ray diffraction or TEM). In case of the maghemite nanoparticles a regular distribution of vacancies in octahedral positions was verified by the help of NMR in external magnetic fields and at various temperatures. The experi- mental results were also compared with ab-initio calculations. In thin layers of barium M type hexaferrite, effects of reduced particle size on 57 Fe NMR spectra were observed. The NMR methods were also successfully applied to investigation of system FeMoCuB of amorphous and nanocrystalline ribbons, where 57 Fe NMR was able to resolve formation of different phases in depen- dence on the process of preparation. Due to different NMR excitation condi- tions of signal from strontium M type hexaferrite and maghemite,...
