“…Diffractograms depicted in figure 4 and 5 support the results shown previously, due to there is a notably reduction on peak intensities of products achieved under the effect of external magnetic field, typical of nanometric particles. In addition, other diffraction peaks are presented on the spectrum suggesting that magnetic field induces the particle growth through certain preferential direction, in agreement with suggestions of several authors [7].…”

“…A maximum intensity of 0.1 Tesla (1000 Gauss) was obtained at the ends of the solenoid. For comparison, procedure was applied with and without application of external magnetic field [7] . Products were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction using a JEOL/EO 1.0 SEM and an X-ray diffractometer Philips XpertPro, respectively.…”

Abstract. Effect of magnetic fields on growth morphology of aluminum crystals was studied in a fluidized bed thermal plasma reactor assisted by magnetic mirrors. Aluminum crystals were precipitated in the reactor using aluminum powder or aluminum-graphite mixture as precursors. The absent of magnetic field was also studied for comparison. Products were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray Diffraction (XRD). Results indicated that, regardless the precursor used, it was observed the presence of aluminum nanowires when the external magnetic mirror was applied, suggesting that magnetic fields are able to modify growth morphology at nanoscale.
