Study on Zinc-Ferrite (5th Report)

Zinc ferrite nanoparticles as MRI contrast agentsw

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a powerful clinical imaging technique for the non-invasive diagnosis and posttherapy assessment of a variety of diseases. MRI contrast can be enhanced by the use of positive or negative contrast agents resulting in brighter (T1-weighted) or darker (T2-weighted) images, respectively. Superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) nanoparticles are T2 contrast agents that...

The Zinc-Ferro Ferrite System Revisited

Highly stoichiometric zinc ferrous ferrites Zn,F+,O, were prepared and characterized by magnetization, desacwmmodation, electrical conductivity, thermal expansion and magnetostriction measurements. The results of the magnetization measurements indicate that up till x = 0.5 the magnetic structure is collinear, which led to the highest saturation magnetizations ever found in spinel femtes. The th...

Ab initio study on copper ferrite

The impact of cation distribution on electronic structure and magnetic properties is investigated by the first-principle calculation. The structure optimization is based on generalized gradient approximation GGA exchange-correlation and projector augmented wave method. The optimized structures of inverse and normal copper ferrite are tetragonal c /a=1.06 and cubic, respectively. The optimized s...
