“…It can be stated that, when the sample processing include a washing step after a short maturation period, hematite conversion is avoided, as this is also confirmed by electron diffraction patterns. In previous HRTEM studies [19], we have shown that amorphous clusters, precursor of maghemite nanoparticles, are formed at 300 • C and that the first crystalline nuclei are detected after 500 • C treatment. On the other hand, when the washing step is not carried out, a mixture of α and γ -Fe 2 O 3 is identified [23].…”

“…Nevertheless, due to the similarities between the cubic and the tetragonal groups, it is not possible to distinguish whether both phases are present or not. The HRTEM images also reveal no specific orientations in attachments between particles [19]. Iron oxide nanoparticles can be better distinguished from the softer silica matrix through HAADF images because of the significant differences in the local atomic number, providing a higher degree of confidence and detail than those obtained in conventional transmission images.…”

“…In this respect, uniform dispersion of iron oxide nanoparticles in organic polymers or inorganic silica matrix is particularly promising. Among the others, sol-gel processes are extensively used for the preparation of iron(III) oxide nanoparticles (c-Fe 2 O 3 ) in organic polymers [5,15] or in inorganic silica matrix [16][17][18][19][20] by incorporation of Fe 3+ ions during synthesis and subsequent thermal-treatments. The porous nature of amorphous silica matrix provides nucleating sites for guest Fe 3+ ions and minimize the aggregation phenomena imposing upper limit to the size and isolate particles from each other.…”
