Jl. Dormann et al., THERMAL VARIATION OF THE RELAXATION-TIME OF THE MAGNETIC-MOMENT OF GAMMA-FE2O3 NANOPARTICLES WITH INTERPARTICLE INTERACTIONS OF VARIOUS STRENGTHS, Physical review. B, Condensed matter, 53(21), 1996, pp. 14291-14297
The dynamical properties of gamma-Fe2O3 particles, dispersed in a poly
mer, were investigated by ac susceptibility (2x10(-2) Hz less than or
equal to nu less than or equal to 10(4) HZ) Mossbauer spectroscopy mea
surements. The variation of the average blocking temperature as a func
tion of the measuring time is satisfactorily described by a model whic
h accounts for interparticle interactions by a statistical calculation
of the dipolar energy for a disordered assembly of particles with a v
olume distribution and easy axes in random position.
