Abstract :
Some basic magnetic properties of α-Fe2O3 nanowires synthesized by oxygenating pure iron are reported. The blocking temperature of the nanowires is 120 K, where the field-cooled and zero-field-cooled magnetization curves diverge, and the hysteresis loops vary notably with temperature. No evidence for Morin transition is found in the temperature range 4–300 K. In addition, the magnetic behavior below 50 K shows a further freezing of magnetic moments. Compared with nanoparticles, the nanowires show some significant differences in magnetic properties.
