摘要:

一个通用的方法,用于定量的偶极相互作用的纳米粒子的组件已经开发了一个模型样品构成的磁铁矿纳米粒子的直径为5 nm,粉末形式的油酸作为表面活性剂,使颗粒仅通过约1 nm厚的有机层彼此分离。这种量化是基于从时间依赖性弛豫测量开始的(i)一个几乎随机取向的粒子磁化或(ii)共线排列的准备通过先前的场冷却样品的能量势垒的分布的比较磁化反转。实验结果和数值模拟表明,当粒子磁化共线排列时,作用在单个粒子上的平均偶极场显著减小。此外,非相互作用情况下的各向异性的能量势垒的固有分布进行了评估,从参考样品中,相同的磁性颗粒被单独涂覆有厚的二氧化硅壳,以使偶极相互作用可以忽略不计。有趣的是,数值模拟的结果占的相对能量移动的实验能量势垒分布对应的相互作用和非相互作用的情况下,从而支持所提出的方法的有效性的偶极相互作用的量化。

英文摘要:

A general method for the quantification of dipolar interactions in assemblies of nanoparticles has been developed from a model sample constituted by magnetite nanoparticles of 5 nm in diameter, in powder form with oleic acid as a surfactant so that the particles were solely separated from each other through an organic layer of about 1 nm in thickness. This quantification is based on the comparison of the distribution of energy barriers for magnetization reversal obtained from time-dependent relaxation measurements starting from either (i) an almost random orientation of the particles magnetizations or (ii) a collinear arrangement of them prepared by previously field cooling the sample. Experimental results and numerical simulations show that the mean dipolar field acting on each single particle is significantly reduced when particles magnetizations are collinearly aligned. Besides, the intrinsic distribution of the energy barriers of anisotropy for the non-interacting case was evaluated from a reference sample where the same magnetic particles were individually coated with a thick silica shell in order to make dipolar interactions negligible. Interestingly, the results of the numerical simulations account for the relative energy shift of the experimental energy barrier distributions corresponding to the interacting and non-interacting cases, thus supporting the validity of the proposed method for the quantification of dipolar interactions.
