Abstract

Magnetic nanoparticle probes are emerging as a class of novel contrast and tracking agents for medical and other applications. The synthesis a large scale quantity of monodispersed magnetic nanoparticles is of great importance for using these materials in practice. In this work, we report the synthesis of magnetite γFe2O3/ Fe3O4. The obtained nanoparticles were investigated by IR, TEM, XRD and AFM techniques..
