The structural and magnetic properties of (In1-xFex)2O3 (0.0 <= x <= 0.25) system : prepared by gel combustion method

(In1-xFex)2O3 polycrystalline samples with x = (0.0, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20 and 0.25) have been synthesized by a gel combustion method. Reitveld refinement analysis of X raydiffraction data indicated the formation of single phase cubic bixbyite structure without any parasitic phases. This observation is further confirmed by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) imaging, and indexing of the selected-area electron diffraction (SAED) patterns, X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS) and Raman Spectroscopy. DC Magnetization studies as a function of temperature and field indicatethat they are ferromagnetic with Curie temperature (TC) well above room temperature.

Composition dependent magnetic properties of iron oxide - polyaniline nanoclusters

Gamma - Iron Oxide prepared by sol -gel process was used to produce nanocomposites with polyaniline of varying aniline concentrations. TEM shows the presence of chain like structure for lower polyaniline concentration. The room temperature hysteresis curves show finite coercivity of 160 Oe for all the composites while the saturation magnetization was found to decrease with increasing polymer content. ZFC - FC magnetisation measurements indicate high blocking temperatures. It is believed that this indicates a strongly interacting system, which is also shown by our TEM results. Monte Carlo simulations performed on a random anisotropy model with dipolar and exchange inteactions match well with experimental results.
