Local Structure and Magnetism of Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> Maghemite Nanocrystals: The Role of Crystal Dimension

Local Structure and Magnetism of Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> Maghemite Nanocrystals: The Role of Crystal Dimension

Here we report on the impact of reducing the crystalline size on the structural and magnetic properties of γ-Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> maghemite nanoparticles. A set of polycrystalline specimens with crystallite size ranging from ~2 to ~50 nm was obtained combining microwav...
