Nd2Fe14B magnetic nanoparticles have been successfully produced using a surfactant-assisted ball milling technique. The nanoparticles with different size about 6, 20 and 300 nm were obtained by a size-selection process. Spin-reorientation transition temperature of the NdFeB nanoparticles was then determined by measuring the temperature dependence of DC and AC magnetic susceptibility. It was found that the spin-reorientation transition temperature (Tsr) of the nanoparticles is strongly size dependent, i.e., Tsr of the 300 nm particles is lower than that of raw materials and a significant decrease was observed in the 20 nm particles.

We present results on structural and magnetic properties of highly crystalline alpha-Fe2O3 nanoparticles of average size ~200 nm, synthesized from a novel sol-gel method using metal alkoxide precursor. These particles are multi-domain, showing the we
ak ferromagnetic-antiferromagnetic (WF-AF) transition (i.e., the Morin transition) at T_M = 256(2) K. Mossbauer measurements revealed a jump in hyperfine parameters at T ~ T_M, which also displays thermal hysteresis upon cooling or heating the sample. The analysis of hyperfine parameters as a function of temperature allowed us to discard temperature gradients as well as the coexistence of WF/AF phases as possible origins of this hysteretic behaviour. Instead, the hysteresis can be qualitatively explained by the small size and high-crystallinity of the particles, which hinder the nucleation of the WF or AF phases yielding metastable states beyond TM.
Most multiferroic materials with coexisting ferroelectric and magnetic order exhibit cycloidal antiferromagnetism with wavelength of several nanometers. The prototypical example is bismuth ferrite (BiFeO$_3$ or BFO), a room-temperature multiferroic c
onsidered for a number of technological applications. While most applications require small sizes such as nanoparticles, little is known about the state of these materials when their sizes are comparable to the cycloid wavelength. This work describes a microscopic theory of cycloidal magnetism in nanoparticles based on Hamiltonian calculations. It is demonstrated that magnetic anisotropy close to the surface has a huge impact on the multiferroic ground state. For certain nanoparticle sizes the modulus of the ferromagnetic and ferroelectric moments are bistable, an effect that may be used in the design of ideal memory bits that can be switched electrically and read out magnetically.
Understanding the structural phase diagram of nano scale SrTiO3 has important implications on the basic physics and applications of the general class of transition metal oxide perovskites. Pressure dependent structural measurements on monodispersed n
anoscale SrTiO3 samples with average diameters of 10 to ~80 nm were conducted. A robust pressure independent polar structure was detected in the 10 nm sample for pressures of up to 13 GPa while a size dependent cubic to tetragonal transition occurs (at P = Pc) for larger particle sizes. The results suggest that the growth of ~10 nm STO particles on substrates with large lattice mismatch will not alter the polar state of the system for a large range of strain values, possibly enabling device use.
Anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR) of Cr2Ge2Te6 (CGT), a layered ferromagnetic insulator, is investigated under an applied hydrostatic pressure up to 2 GPa. The easy axis direction of the magnetization is inferred from the AMR saturation feature in
the presence and absence of the applied pressure. At zero applied pressure, the easy axis is along the c-direction or perpendicular to the layer. Upon application of a hydrostatic pressure>1 GPa, the uniaxial anisotropy switches to easy-plane anisotropy which drives the equilibrium magnetization from the c-axis to the ab-plane at zero magnetic field, which amounts to a giant magnetic anisotropy energy change (>100%). As the temperature is increased across the Curie temperature, the characteristic AMR effect gradually decreases and disappears. Our first-principles calculations confirm the giant magnetic anisotropy energy change with moderate pressure and assign its origin to the increased off-site spin-orbit interaction of Te atoms due to a shorter Cr-Te distance. Such a pressure-induced spin reorientation transition is very rare in three-dimensional ferromagnets, but it may be common to other layered ferromagnets with similar crystal structures to CGT, and therefore offers a unique way to control magnetic anisotropy.
Precise measurements of YbFeO_3 magnetization in the spin-reoirentation temperature interval are performed. It is shown that ytterbium orthoferrite is well described by a recently developed modified mean field theory developed for ErFeO_3. This valid
ates the conjecture about the essential influence of the rare earth ions anisotropic paramagnetism on the magnetization behavior in the reorientation regions of all orthoferrites with Gamma{4} -> Gamma{24} -> Gamma{2} phase transitions.
