Magnetic nanoparticles are used throughout biology for applications from targeted drug and gene delivery to the labeling of cells. These nanoparticles typically react with the biological medium to which they are introduced, resulting in a diminished magnetic moment. The rate at which their magnetic moment is diminished limits their utility for targeting and can signal the unintended release of ...

Realising the promise of next-generation magnetic nanotechnologies is contingent on the development of novel methods for controlling magnetic states at the nanoscale. There is currently demand for simple and flexible techniques to access exotic magnetisation states without convoluted fabrication and application processes. 360° domain walls (metastable twists in magnetisation separating two doma...

The three dimensional nature of cylindrical magnetic nanowires has opened a new way to control the domain configuration as well as the magnetization reversal process. The pinning effect of the periodic diameter modulations on the domain wall propagation in FeCoCu individual nanowires is determined by Magnetic Force Microscopy, MFM. A main bistable magnetic configuration is firstly concluded fro...

Abstract In this work, we report the influence of single-ionized oxygen vacancies ( $$V^{\prime}_{{\text{O}}}$$ V O ′ ) as a spin ½ system in ferromagnetic response undoped and Cr-doped SnO 2 nanowires. For study, nanowires were synthesized ...

Nanowire is a cylindrical nano-structure with nanometer dimensions. In this research, the studied nanowire was made from the magnetic triple Ni-Fe-Co alloy. We utilized ordered porous anodic aluminum oxide as a template for the nanowire deposition. The nanowire arrays were electrodeposited in the cylindrical pores of the oxide layer by AC potential in a simple sulfate bath. Then the relation ...
