Formation of magnetite nanoparticles at low temperature: from superparamagnetic to stable single domain particles.
The room temperature co-precipitation of ferrous and ferric iron under alkaline conditions typically yields superparamagnetic magnetite nanoparticles below a size of 20 nm. We show that at pH = 9 this method can be tuned to grow larger particles with single stable domain magnetic (> 20-30 nm) o...
