AB  - In the last two decades, cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4, CFO) has attracted extensive attention due to its applicability in data storage, catalysis, energy, environment, and in particular, biomedicine. To further extend applicability and improve understanding of fundamental processes, the present work investigates the influence of heteroatoms on physicochemical properties of CFO. Solvothermal method was used for designing a non-agglomerated particles with uniform morpho-structural properties. The physicochemical properties of Zn2+ and Ga3+ substituted CFO nanoparticles were examined (Co(1-x)ZnxFe2O4 and CoGaxFe(2-x)O4; x=0, 0.1, 0.3 and 0.5). In order to isolate the contribution of heteroatoms, the synthesis condition were optimized to allow preparation of nonagglomerated particles with the narrow particle size and shape distribution, including the constant amount of capping agent. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements confirmed the presence of pure cubic spinel phase in all samples, while the transmission electron microscopy (TEM) showed sphere-like nanoparticles with a mean diameter of 6±1 nm. The amount of adsorbed oleic acid on the surface of the nanoparticles, determined by thermogravimetric (TG) analysis, is 22-28 %, which indicates the formation of a complete monolayer of surfactant. The FT-IR analysis substantiated the presence of oleic acid on the surface of the nanoparticles and discovered its covalent bonding to the metal atoms. Substitution of host-atoms was also confirmed by Raman spectroscopy. Magnetic measurements revealed the influence of heteroatoms on saturation magnetization and magnetic anisotropy, showing for all the samples superparamagnetic behavior at room temperature. The substitution of Co2+ and Fe3+ ions with Zn2+ and Ga3+, respectively, leads to the change in chemical composition and cationic distribution of CFO and consequently to variation of its magnetic properties that can be tuned for different applications.

AB  - Magnetic nanoparticles represent complex but very interesting objects. They combine the bulk properties with novel phenomena emerging at the nanoscale due to finite-size effects. The recent development of the synthetic procedures allows having a strong control on the size and shape of individual particles and on their physical-chemical structure. Among different magnetic materials, spinel ferrite nanoparticles offer strong chemical and physical stability as well as tunable magnetic properties. In the present article, we investigate the effect of Zn substitution in cobalt ferrite nanoparticles. The technological development of nanoparticle-based magnetic materials aims to find a balance between a well-defined magnetic behavior of individual elements and their strong interactions, which arise from the need of miniaturization that leads to dense ensembles of the system's constituents. Within this complex context, we provide one route to optimize the properties of small spinel ferrite particles by tuning their chemical composition without compromise their structural properties, and with full control of their size and shape. Furthermore, we propose an advanced analysis of their magnetic properties in the framework of the random anisotropy model. We will show that the chemical composition not only determines the intrinsic anisotropy energy of each nanoparticle but also owns a profound effect on the interparticle interactions. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.

AB  - Initial results en route toward construction of complex magnetic core-shell silica and organosilica nanotheranostics are presented. Magnetite nanoparticles are synthesized by three different methods and embedded within mesoporous silica and organosilica frameworks by different surfactant-templated procedures to produce three types of core-shell nanoparticles. Magnetite nanoparticles (15 nm in diameter) are embedded within mesoporous silica nanoparticles to produce cell-like material with predominantly one magnetite nuclei-resembling core per nanoparticle, with final particle diameter of ca. 150 nm, specific surface area of 573 m(2)/g and hexagonally structured tubular pores (2.6 nm predominant diameter), extended throughout the volume of nanoparticles. Two forms of spherical core-shell nanoparticles composed of magnetite cores embedded within mesoporous organosilica shells are also obtained by employing ethylene and ethane bridged organobisalkoxysilane precursors. The obtained nanomaterials are characterized by high surface area (978 and 820 m(2)/g), tubular pore morphology (2 and 2.8 nm predominant pore diameters), different diameters (386 and 100-200 nm), in case of ethylene- and ethane-composed organosilica shells, respectively. Different degree of agglomeration of magnetite nanoparticles was also observed in the obtained materials, and in the case of utilization of surfactant-pre-stabilized magnetite nanoparticles for the syntheses, their uniform and non-agglomerated distribution within the shells was noted.

AB  - Environmentally friendly preparation of functionalized magnetite-silica (Fe3O4/SiO2) nanocomposites (NCs) with different SiO2 content (6, 20 and 50 wt%) using revised mechanosynthesis is reported. High-energy ball milling of alpha-Fe2O3, Si and SiO2 mixtures was followed by hydrolysis and condensation of 3-aminopropyl-triethoxysilane. X-ray powder diffraction and transmission electron microscopy showed the formation of almost spherical Fe3O4 nanocrystals with a narrow size distribution (4-6 nm) uniformly dispersed in the amorphous 100-200 nm SiO2 agglomerates. Scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectroscopy were used to study the elemental distribution in the sample. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy confirmed the NC surface functionalization with amino groups. Magnetic properties were also explored, indicating a homogeneous distribution of magnetic nanoparticles in the silica matrix.

AB  - We studied the temperature,dependence of the magnetization in an ensemble of monodomain nanoparticles both with dc magnetometry and Mossbauer spectroscopy. The analytical form of the temperature dependence is given by the complementary cumulative distribution function. This allows to determine the magnetization blocking temperatures of the sample by a fitting procedure. It is possible to calculate the Mossbauer blocking temperature by a single spectrum and the dc magnetization blocking temperature by, two points of the thermoremanent magnetization curve, thus with a large reduction of the experimental work. The method may be used for particles with not too strong interactions, such happens in the Fe28 sample and not for samples with strong interactions as N30; it may be used for interparticle interaction energies up to 2 yJ and not for energies larger than 60 yJ. This method of analysis of the data should be used in the future work concerning the thermoremanent magnetization and Mossbauer spectra of magnetic nanoparticles.

AB  - Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) are widely investigated due to their potential use in various applications, ranging from electronics to biomedical devices. The magnetic properties of MNPs are strongly dependent on their size and shape (i.e., morphology), thus appropriate tools to investigate their morphology are fundamental to understand the physics of these systems. Recently a new approach to study nanoparticle morphology by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) analysis has been proposed, introducing the so-called Aspect Maps (AMs). In this paper, a further evolution of the AM method is presented, allowing determination of the nanoparticles 3D shape by TEM image. As a case study, this paper will focus on magnetite nanoparticles (Fe3O4), with a mean size of similar to 45 nm extracted from Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense magnetostatic bacteria (MTB). The proposed approach gives a complete description of the nanoparticles morphology, allowing estimation of an average geometrical size and shape. In addition, preliminary investigation of the magnetic properties of MTB nanoparticles was performed, giving some insight into interparticle interactions and on the reversal mechanism of the magnetization.
