The lead-free ferroelectric 0.5Ba(Zr0.2Ti0.8)O3 - 0.5(Ba0.7Ca0.3)TiO3 (BCZT) is a promising component for multifunctional multiferroics due to its excellent room temperature piezoelectric properties. Having a composition close to the polymorphic phase boundary between the orthorhombic and tetragonal phases, it deserves a case study for analysis of its potential for modern electronics applicatio...

This communication presents a new peroxidase mimic of CoFe(2)O(4) nanoparticles evaluated by the luminol-based chemiluminescent (CL) reaction. This offers a new method for evaluation and screening of the nanoparticles-based enzyme mimetics.

Magnetic nanoparticle (MNP)-based magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents (CAs) have been the subject of extensive research over recent decades. The particle size of MNPs varies widely and is known to influence their physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties. There are two commonly used methods for synthesizing MNPs, organometallic and aqueous solution coprecipitation. The former ...

The control of the magnetization inversion dynamics is one main challenges driving design new nanostructured magnetic materials for magnetoelectronic applications. Nanoparticles with onion-like architecture offer a unique opportunity to expand possibilities allowing combine different phases at nanoscale and also modulate coupling between by introducing spacers in same structure. Here we report ...

Magnetic fluids based on single-domain magnetic spinel ferrite nanoparticles dispersed in various liquid media are of particular practical and scientific interest. This paper presents a muon spectroscopy study ferrofluid CoFe2O4 molecules water (H2O) with nanoparticle concentration 3%. In this study, it was determined that the structure magnitude magnetization depend viscosity itself. It shown ...
