Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) exhibit unique magnetic properties due to finite size effects and surface effects, which are crucial for biomedical applications. These nanoparticles, with sizes ranging from 1 to 100 nm, have a high surface-to-volume ratio, leading to significant surface contributions to magnetization. Surface effects include defects, oxidation, and strain, which can lead to surface magnetization and influence the magnetic properties of the nanoparticles. The magnetic properties of MNPs are influenced by factors such as size, shape, and composition, and they can exhibit superparamagnetic behavior at temperatures above the blocking temperature (T_B). Superparamagnetic MNPs have a large magnetic moment that continuously changes orientation and do not retain magnetization in the absence of an applied field. Ferrite nanoparticles, such as magnetite (Fe₃O₄) and maghemite (γ-Fe₂O₃), are important in biomedical applications, particularly in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as contrast agents. The magnetic properties of ferrite nanoparticles are influenced by their structure, with the spinel structure being a common form. The magnetic moment of cations in ferrite nanoparticles arises from the spin magnetic moment of unpaired 3d electrons. The magnetic properties of ferrite nanoparticles can be tuned by controlling synthesis methods and particle size, leading to changes in lattice parameters, the appearance of secondary phases, and the presence of point defects. Surface effects and finite size effects significantly influence the magnetic properties of nanoparticles. These effects can lead to changes in magnetization, coercivity, and other magnetic properties. The magnetic behavior of nanoparticles is complex and can be influenced by factors such as size distribution, surface and internal defects, and inter-particle interactions. The study of these effects is essential for understanding and optimizing the magnetic properties of nanoparticles for biomedical applications.Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) exhibit unique magnetic properties due to finite size effects and surface effects, which are crucial for biomedical applications.
