“…Relatively sharp diffraction lines indicate fair crystallinity of the sample, which is proved in a mean Xray coherence length (MCL) equal to 32 nm. Although the cell parameter is slightly higher (a = 8.403 Å) than that previously reported in literature [13], no cation substitutions are presented.…”

“…The main aim of this work is to investigate a thermally induced transformation process of -Fe 2 O 3 phase not merely in an oxidative ambient atmosphere (i.e., synthetic air) as has been explored earlier [13], but also in various inert atmospheres, including nitrogen (N 2 ) and carbon dioxide (CO 2 ). To the best of our knowledge, such a study has never been performed yet.…”

“…Hematite is the most stable phase of iron oxide, whereas maghemite is metastable and readily transforms to hematite. In nature, both hematite and maghemite can be found in minerals as well as in nanoparticle form, but it is generally accepted that a nanoparticle sizedependent transition from maghemite to hematite occurs around 10 nm 43 . Furthermore, the stabilization of maghemite nanoparticles has been observed at maghemite silica-based supports 44 .…”

“…Superparamagnetism is a thermally activated relaxation phenomenon that is typically observed in nanoscale structures, in which the particle's overall magnetic moment (i.e., superspin) spontaneously fluctuates between various orientations that are energetically favored by its magnetic (magnetocrystalline in most cases) anisotropy. Nanosized γ-Fe 2 O 3 is a very useful material in nanotechnological applications because its nanoparticles have interesting magnetic and surface properties and it is nontoxic, biodegradable, biocompatible, and chemically stable 5 It is really important to get monodispersity during the fabrication of the nanoparticles to increase the sensitivity of these particles for the diverse applications. Hence, the development of novel methods has been the focus of recent research to make uniform and highly monodispersed nanoparticles by the wet chemical method, 6,7 and the thermal decomposition method.…”
