In this paper, three techniques to obtain capped magnetite nanoparticles were compared. In the formation of magnetite nanoparticles via the co-precipitation route, capping agents were introduced pre-, simultaneously with, or post-addition of the precipitating agent, ammonia. The amino acids L-glutamine and L-glutamic acid were used as the capping agents. Characterization via TEM, pXRD, EDX, and...

cobalt ferrite is an important magnetic material due to their large magneto-crystalline anisotropy, high cohercivity, moderate saturation magnetization and chemical stability.in this study, cobalt ferrites nanoparticles have been synthesized by the co-precipitation method and a new microemulsion route. we examined the cation occupancy in the spinel structure based on the “rietveld with energies...

Ni/Co multilayers grown by molecular beam epitaxy are found to exhibit a magnetoresistance AR/R at liquid helium temperature as large as 8.2%, with saturation fields AH-22 Oe and a sensitivity (AR/R)/(2AH)=O. 19% Oe-‘. The highest room temperature sensitivity obtained to date in this system is 0.18% Oe-’ and at 4.2 K is 0.29% Oe-‘. This demonstrates that high values of the sensitivity can be ac...

We have performed simulations of driven, supersonic, magnetohydrodynamic turbulence following the growth and saturation of an initially weak magnetic field via small-scale dynamo amplification. The results are compared between two different numerical methods and codes: smoothed particle magnetohydrodynamics (SPMHD) with the PHANTOM code, and the grid-based code FLASH. We find that the growth ra...

This paper presents a lumped-parameter magnetic model for an interior permanent-magnet synchronous machine. The model accounts for the effects of saturation through a nonlinear reluctance-element network used to estimate the -axis inductance. The magnetic model is used to calculate inductance and torque in the presence of saturation. Furthermore, these calculations are compared to those from fi...

Magnetic nanorods or nanowires exhibit degrees of freedom associated with their inherent shape anisotropy and the ability to incorporate different components along their length. The introduction of multiple segments along the length of a nanowire can lead to further degrees of freedom associated with the shape of each segment and the coupling between layers. In this paper, we present an overvie...

magnetic cufe2o4 nanoparticles were synthesized by a facile microwave-assisted reaction between cu(no3)2 and fe(no3)3. the magnetic nanoparticles were added to starch to make magnetic polymeric nanocomposite. the nanoparticles and nanocomposites were characterized using x-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. the magnetic properties of the samples were investigated using an alternat...

Different transformer models have been developed in the past for steady state and transient analysis of power systems. Some of these models have nonlinear components to take into account the magnetic core saturation characteristics so that harmonic generation can be simulated. Case studies based on these models are presented to demonstrate the harmonic generation behaviors of transformers under...
