Preparation and Magnetic Properties of ZnFe2O4 Nanotubes

Ordered ZnFe2O4 nanotube arrays with the average outer diameter of 100 nm were prepared in porous anodic aluminum oxide template using an improved sol-gel approach. The morphology was studied by transmission electron and field emission scanning electron microscope. X-ray diffraction result shows tha...

The morphology was studied by transmission electron and field emission scanning electron microscope. X-ray diffraction result shows that the nanotubes were polycrystalline in structure.

The results show that the sample shows typical superparamagnetism at room temperature and obvious ferromagnetism below blocking temperature.http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2011/525967
