AB  - Crystalline nickel oxide (NiO) nanoparticles dispersed in an amorphous silica matrix have been prepared by a sol-gel combustion synthesis method. The sample was characterized using X-ray powder diffraction, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and superconducting quantum interference device magnetometry. The nanoparticles were spherical with an average size of about 5 nm and narrow particle size distribution. The magnetization measurements revealed two maxima in the zero-field cooled magnetization curve at 5 K and 56 K. An analysis of DC and AC magnetic susceptibility measurements revealed that the higher temperature maximum corresponded to the onset of antiferromagnetic ordering within the particles. The Neel temperature of T-N = 56 K is much lower than in bulk NiO. The 5 K maximum corresponded to the particle blocking temperature TB. The frequency dependence of TB was successfully fitted using the Vogel-Fulcher law, indicating the presence of weak inter-particle interactions (C-1 = 0.08 and C-2 = 0.76). A Curie-Weiss law fit to the magnetic susceptibility above T-N revealed antiferromagnetic exchange interactions with a Curie-Weiss temperature of theta = 24 K and an effective magnetic moment of mu(eff) = 2.87 mu(B) per NiO unit. We conclude that these magnetic properties can be attributed to the smallness of the NiO nanoparticles and to crystal lattice defects. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB  - We show that annealing at high temperatures has a significant effect on the structural and magnetic properties of NiO/SiO2 nanostructures synthesized by a sol-gel combustion method. Samples underwent heat treatments at 500 degrees C, 800 degrees C, 950 degrees C and 1100 degrees C. As compared to the 500 degrees C sample, the 800 degrees C sample showed the following magnetic properties: much higher irreversibility temperature, a significantly broadened zero-field-cooled (ZFC) magnetization maximum, a decrease of the ZFC magnetization, an increase of the coercivity, and weaker inter-particle interactions. These changes can be attributed to agglomeration of nanoparticles in part of the sample. We believe that this agglomeration can be explained by the removal of thin regions of silica that separate nanoparticles in close proximity during the annealing process at 800 degrees C. Magnetic measurements for the 1100 sample reveal both an abrupt increase in size of the NiO nanoparticles, which is confirmed by TEM and XRPD measurements, and an increase in inter-particle interaction strength.

AB  - We present magnetic properties of NiMn2O4-delta (nickel manganite) which was synthesized by complex polymerization synthesis method followed by successive heat treatment and final calcinations in air at 1200 degrees C. The sample was characterized by using X-ray powder diffractometer (XRPD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometer. The XRPD and FE-SEM studies revealed NiMn2O4-delta phase and good crystallinity of particles. No other impurities have been observed by XRPD. The magnetic properties of the sample have been studied by measuring the temperature and field dependence of magnetization. Magnetic measurements of M(T) reveal rather complex magnetic properties and multiple magnetic phase transitions. We show three magnetic phase transitions with transition temperatures at T-M1 = 35 K (long-range antiferromagnetic transition), T-M2 = 101 K (antiferromagnetic-type transition) and T-M3 = 120 K (ferromagnetic-like transition). We found that the T-M1 transition is strongly dependent on the strength of the applied magnetic field (T-M1 decreases with increasing applied field) whereas the T-M3 is field independent. Otherwise, the T-M2 maximum almost disappears in higher applied magnetic fields (H = 1 kOe and 10 kOe). Magnetic measurements of M(H) show hysteretic behavior below T-M3. Moreover, hysteresis properties measured after cooling of the sample in magnetic field of 10 kOe show exchange bias effect with an exchange bias field vertical bar H-EB vertical bar= 196 Oe. In summary, the properties that distinguish the investigated NiMn2O4-delta sample from other bulk, thin film, ceramic and nanoparticle NiMn2O4-delta systems are the triple magnetic transitions with sharp increase of the ZFC and FC magnetizations at 120 K and the exchange bias effect. The analysis of the results and comparison with literature data allowed us to conjecture that the mixed oxidation states of Mn ions, ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic sublattice orders and surface effects in the sample tailor these interesting magnetic properties.
