Publication Open Access Effect of Cu substitution on the magnetic and magnetic induction heating response of CdFe₂O₄ spinel ferrite(Elsevier, 2020) Ghasemi, R.; Echeverría Morrás, Jesús; Pérez de Landazábal Berganzo, José Ignacio; Beato López, Juan Jesús; Naseri, M.; Gómez Polo, Cristina; Zientziak; Institute for Advanced Materials and Mathematics - INAMAT2; CienciasIn this work, a comparative study of the effect of Cu on the structural, magnetic and magnetic induction heating response in CdFe2O4 spinel is presented. The ceramic nanoparticles (Cu1−xCdxFe2O4; 0 ≤ x ≤ 1) were synthesized by co-precipitation from Cu(II), Cd(II) and Fe(III) salts. The samples, characterized by X-ray diffractometry, display the characteristic spinel cubic structure (space group Fm3m) where CdO is detected as main secondary phase (≈ 16% weight for x = 1). A high degree of nanoparticle agglomeration is inferred from the Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) images, as a consequence of the employed synthesis procedure. Regarding the magnetic properties, superparamagnetic behavior at room temperature can be disregarded according to the low field magnetization response (ZFC-FC curves). For 0.4 ≤ x ≤ 0.8 ratios, the samples display maximum values in the magnetic moment that should be correlated to the cation distribution between the octahedral and tetrahedral sites. Maximum magnetization values lead to an enhancement in the magnetic induction heating response characterized by highest heating temperatures under the action of an ac magnetic field. In particular, maximum SAR values are estimated for x = 0.8 as a combined effect of high magnetic moment, low dc coercive field (high susceptibility). Although these Cu-Cd ferrite nanoparticles display moderate SAR values (around 0.7 W/g), the control of the maximum heating temperatures through the cation distribution (composition) provides promising properties to be used as nanosized heating elements (i.e. hyperthermia agents).Publication Open Access Tailoring the structural and magnetic properties of Co-Zn nanosized ferrites for hyperthermia applications(Elsevier, 2018) Gómez Polo, Cristina; Recarte Callado, Vicente; Cervera Gabalda, Laura María; Beato López, Juan Jesús; López García, Javier; Rodríguez Velamazán, José Alberto; Ugarte Martínez, María Dolores; Mendonça, E. C.; Duque, J. G. S.; Zientziak; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika; Institute for Advanced Materials and Mathematics - INAMAT2; Ciencias; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas; Gobierno de Navarra / Nafarroako GobernuaA comparative study of the magnetic properties (magnetic moment, magnetocrystalline anisotropy) and hyperthermia response in Co-Zn spinel nanoparticles is presented. The CoxZn1-xFe2O4 nanoparticles (x = 1, 0.5, 0.4, 0.3, 0.2 and 0.1) were synthesized by co-precipitated method and the morphology and mean crystallite size (around 10 nm) of the nanoparticles were analysed by TEM Microscopy. Regarding the magnetic characterization (SQUID magnetometry), Co-Zn nanoparticles display at room temperature anhysteretic magnetization curves, characteristic of the superparamagnetic behavior. A decrease in the blocking temperature, T-B, with Zn content is experimentally detected that can be ascribed to the reduction in the mean nanoparticle size as x decreases. Furthermore, the reduction in the magnetocrystalline anisotropy with Zn inclusion is confirmed through the analysis of TB versus the mean volume of the nanoparticles and the law of approach to saturation. Maximum magnetization is achieved for x = 0.5 as a result of the cation distribution between octahedral and tetrahedral spinel sites, analysed by neutron diffraction studies. The occurrence of a canted spin arrangement (Yafet-Kittel angle) is introduced to properly fit the magnetic spinel structures. Finally, the heating capacity of these spinel ferrites is analyzed under ac magnetic field (magnetic hyperthermia). Maximum SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) values are achieved for x = 0.5 that should be correlated to the maximum magnetic moment of this composition.
