Abstract:The creation of large magnetic fields is a necessary component in many technologies, ranging from magnetic resonance imaging, electric motors and generators, and magnetic hard disk drives in information storage. This is typically done by inserting a ferromagnetic pole piece with a large magnetisation density M S in a solenoid. In addition to large M S , it is usually required or desired that the ferromagnet is magnetically soft and has a Curie temperature well above the operating temperature of the device. A v… Show more

Among all transition metals magnetic alloys, Co 35 Fe 65 possesses the highest saturation magnetization B S = 2.45 T at room temperature given by the so-called "Slater-Pauling limit". For controlled electrodeposition of Co 35 Fe 65 nanowire arrays the following parameters were found to be optimal: electrolyte solution with 1-2 mM malonic acid (MA), ionic ratio Fe +2 /Co +2 = 2.0, growth rate, and pulsed potential deposition with time-on (2.5 s) at the potential of −1.15 V/SCE and time-off (1.0 s) at −0.70 V/SCE. These arrays were deposited inside anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) templates that contained columnar nanopores with diameters either 35 or 200 nm. Cyclic voltammetry was used in solution with and without MA and reaction mechanism was proposed to explain the critical role of MA in electrodeposition of CoFe alloys. In addition to uniform deposition of stechiometric Co 35 Fe 65 alloys, a selectivity ratio, (SR) ∼1.0, were achieved, which means that the atomic ratio of Fe/Co in the nanowire matched the molar ratio of Fe +2 /Co +2 in the electrolyte. The magnetic behavior of the subsequent 2.45 T Co 35 Fe 65 nanowire arrays showed that the shape and magnetostatic anisotropies dominated the effective anisotropy, and the impact of magnetocrystalline and magnetelastic anisotropies field was very small. 1 The highest saturation magnetization of all transition-metal (TM) alloys at room temperature shows Co 36 Fe 65 alloy with respective saturation magnetization of B s = 2.45 T, which is commonly referred to us as the "Slater-Pauling limit".2 Thin films of these alloys, obtained either by electrochemical deposition (ED) or called sputter deposition, are currently used in high areal recording density (HRD) heads including longitudinal (LMR), perpendicular (PMR), and heat assisted (HAMR) magnetic recording. In fact, about 15 years ago Seagate Technologies was first in the recording head industry to introduce 2.4 T CoFe as the longitudinal writer pole material-which was fabricated by electrodeposition. 3 The advantages of electrochemical vs. sputtering deposition include reduced process content, reduced variance and reduced cost. Importantly, controlled electrodeposition is possible even into high aspect ratio of templates including anodized aluminum oxide-AAO, diblock copolymers-DBC, carbonate membranes, and porous silicone. Porous AAO templates are particularly attractive since the pore diameters can be 10-300 nm with pore densities in the range of 10 9 to 10 11 cm −2 . 4 Ferromagnetic nanowire arrays have been used as a miniaturized devices in electronics and optics. 5 In addition, such nanowires have a promising biomagnetic applications like biosensing, cell separation, MRI contrast agents and magnetic hyperthermia. [6][7][8][9][10] Most biomagnetic studies have been limited to nanometer iron-oxide based nanoparticles for MRI imaging and magnetic hyperthermia.6 However, the low saturation magnetization of the bulk iron-oxides (e.g. B s ∼0.5 T for Fe 2 O 3 11 ) prevents them from becoming highly efficient in hypertherm...

“…The values of 2 H c in BFCT-0.1 and BFCT-0.2 at 50 or 100 K are all above 10 kOe and even some values can reach∼20 kOe, which are far higher than those in BFCT-0.3 and 0.6 (about 4 ∼ 6 kOe). To the best of our knowledge, the order of magnitude of 2 H c in 10∼150 K is even comparable with that of Fe-Co alloys 30 , cobalt ferrite nanoparticles 31 , and hole-doped La 1− x Sr x CoO 3 (∼10 kOe at 5 K) 32 .Figure 5Low-temperatures magnetic property of BFCT- x .

Nanoscale structural modulation with different layer numbers in layer-structured complex oxides of the binary Bi4Ti3O12-BiFeO3 system can give rise to intriguing phenomena and extraordinary properties, originating from the correlated interfaces of two different phases with different strain states. In this work, we studied the nanoscale structural modulation induced by Co-substitution in the Aurivillius-type oxide of Bi11Fe3Ti6O33 with a unique and naturally occurred mixed-layer structure. Nanoscale structural evolution via doping occurred from the phase-modulated structure composed of 4- and 5-layer phases to a homogeneous 4-layer structure was clearly observed utilizing x-ray diffraction and electron micro-techniques. Significantly, magnetic response for the samples under various temperatures was recorded and larger magnetic coercive fields (e.g. Hc ∼ 10 kOe at 50 K) were found in the phase-modulated samples. Analyses of the x-ray absorption spectra and magnetic response confirmed that the low-temperature magnetic behaviour should be intrinsic to the phase-modulated structure inside the structural transformation region, mainly arising from structural distortions at the correlated interfaces.
“…Since the substrate (curved surface of amorphous silica here) affects the growth, other choices of geometries and materials such as Mn, Pd, Cr or W would be expected to lead to different magnetic properties. 28 The polycrystalline nature 23 of the samples, randomly grain formations, 10,11,18,23,25 crystal defects 11 and stress 18,25,29 likely act as barriers to achieving high magnetism by distorting the magnetization uniformity.…”
Gadolinium (Gd) metal is of great interest in applications such as contrast-enhanced MRI and magnetic cooling. However, it is generally difficult to produce oxide-free and highly magnetic Gd nanoparticles due to the aggressively reactive nature of Gd with oxygen. Herein, we utilized a nanofabrication route and optimization of experimental conditions to produce highly magnetic air-stable oxide-free Gd nanoparticles. The nanobowls displayed the highest saturation magnetization to date for Gd, reaching 226.4 emu/g at 2 K. The crystalline composition of Gd is found to affect the observed magnetization values: the higher magnetization is observed for nanoparticles that have a lower content of the paramagnetic face-centered cubic (fcc) phase and a greater content of the ferromagnetic hexagonal close-packed (hcp) phase. The relative fcc content was found to depend on the deposition rate of the Gd metal during the nanofabrication process, thereby correlating with altered magnetization.
