AB  - Pure and Cr-doped hematite (α-(Fe1-xCrx)2O3, x = 0, 0.026, 0.039, 0.085 or 0.135) nanorods were prepared by a simple co-precipitation and calcination method. Influence of different levels of Cr doping on the change of properties of long and thin pure hematite nanorods was investigated. Cr3+-for-Fe3+ substitution in the crystal structure of hematite was proved by measuring a gradual contraction of the unit cell and a gradual decrease of the hyperfine magnetic field by increasing the Cr molar fraction. Cr doping induced an increase in the width and thickness of hematite nanorods, as well as a decrease in the overall surface area. Low temperature 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy showed that the Morin transition in hematite was suppressed by Cr doping to temperatures below 80 K. Magnetic measurements confirmed the suppression of the Morin transition in Cr-doped hematite down to 5 K. Infrared spectra of Cr-doped hematite samples showed shifts of IR bands by Cr3+-for-Fe3+ substitution. Optical properties of α-Fe2O3 nanorods changed significantly by Cr doping – the absorption edge was shifted to higher wavelengths, accompanied by a greater absorption in the visible range and narrowed direct and indirect optical band gaps. The improved visible light photocatalytic activity of hematite nanorods in the heterogeneous photo-Fenton process by moderate Cr doping was measured, which can be attributed to the modifications in electronic structure and optical properties.

AB  - Pure hematite nanorods and very long and thin cobalt-doped hematite nanorods (nanoneedles) were prepared by a combined precipitation and annealing method. The influence of the level of cobalt doping on different properties of hematite nanorods was investigated. Incorporation of cobalt in the form of low-spin Co3+ ions into the structure of hematite by substitution for high-spin Fe3+ ions was proved by determination of a significant unit cell contraction by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and characteristic positions of the absorption edge in X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) spectra and peaks in X-ray emission (XES) spectra. Cobalt doping caused a gradual elongation and thinning of hematite nanorods – very long and thin 1D nanoparticles (nanoneedles) were formed in the presence of 10 and 12 mol% Co. Magnetic measurements showed a strong increase in low-temperature remanent magnetization and coercivity upon cobalt doping, as well as a disappearance of the Morin transition, which was also confirmed by Mössbauer spectroscopy. Cobalt doping significantly affected optical properties of hematite nanorods – absorption in the visible and NIR ranges increased, which was accompanied by narrowing of the optical band gap. Compared with pure hematite nanorods cobalt-doped hematite nanoneedles showed a significantly better electrocatalytic activity for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER).

AB  - Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) are of immense interest for diagnostic and therapeutic applications in medicine. Design and development of new iron oxide-based MNPs for such applications is of rather limited breadth without reliable and sensitive methods to determine their levels in body tissues. Commonly used methods, such as ICP, are quite problematic, due to the inability to decipher the origin of the detected iron, i.e. whether it originates from the MNPs or endogenous from tissues and bodily fluids. One of the approaches to overcome this problem and to increase reliability of tracing MNPs is to partially substitute iron ions in the MNPs with Er. Here, we report on the development of citric add coated (Fe,Er)(3)O-4 nanopartides and characterization of their physico-chemical and biological properties by utilization of various complementary approaches. The synthesized MNPs had a narrow (6-7 nm) size distribution, as consistently seen in atomic pair distribution function, transmission electron microscopy, and DC magnetization measurements. The particles were found to be superparamagnetic, with a pronounced maximum in measured zero-field cooled magnetization at around 90 K. Reduction in saturation magnetization due to incorporation of 1.7% Er3+ into the Fe3O4 matrix was clearly observed. From the biological standpoint, citric acid coated (Fe,Er)(3)O-4 NPs were found to induce low toxicity both in human cell fibroblasts and in zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos. Biodistribution pattern of the MNPs after intravenous administration in healthy Wistar rats was followed by the radiotracer method, revealing that Y-90-labeled MNPs were predominantly found in liver (7533% ID), followed by lungs (16.70% ID) and spleen (2.83% ID). Quantitative agreement with these observations was obtained by ICP-MS elemental analysis using Er as the detected tracer. Based on the favorable physical, chemical and biological characteristics, citric add coated (Fe,Er)(3)O-4 MNPs could be further considered for the potential application as a diagnostic and/or therapeutic agent. This work also demonstrates that combined application of these techniques is a promising tool for studies of pharmacokinetics of the new MNPs in complex biological systems.

AB  - Magnetic nanocomposites can show enhanced properties compared to their single phase counterparts. Novel soft ferrite Fe3O4/soft ferrite MnFe2O4 nanocomposite, as well as pure MnFe2O4 and Fe3O4 for the sake of comparison, were synthesized by co-precipitation method. The spinel type of structure (space group Fd (3) over barm) of the samples was confirmed by XRPD and SAED. Samples are composed of spherical particles with size in the range 5-15 nm. Nanocomposite (92 wt%) MnFe2O4/(8 wt%) Fe3O4 exert single phase like magnetic behavior. Saturation magnetization (M-S) of Fe3O4/MnFe2O4 is 26% greater than M-S of MnFe2O4 and even 50% than M-S of Fe3O4. At the same time coercivity field of the nanocomposite is twice less value (H-C=180 Oe) than in binary ferrites (H-C=360 Oe). Magnetization enhancement and softening in Magnetite/Mn-ferrite is discussed related to particle interactions among two different ferrites and intrinsic properties of nanoparticles. Tailoring phase ratio and synthesis conditions can be a tool for tuning magnetic properties of nanocomposites. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB  - Herein a comparative study of five nanocrystalline cerium oxides (CeO2-delta) synthesised by different methods and calcined at 500 degrees C is reported. XRPD analysis showed that stoichiometry parameter delta, crystallite size/strain and lattice constant were only slightly affected by the method utilized. All ceria nanoparticles are nearly spherical in shape with faceted morphology, free of defects and with a relatively uniform size distribution. The average microstrain was found to be approximately 10 times higher than that of bulk counterpart. The absorption edge of nanocrystalline materials was shifted towards a higher wavelengths (red shift) in comparison with bulk counterpart, and band gap values were in the range 2.7-3.24 eV (3.33 eV for bulk counterpart).

AB  - The 5-10 nnn Ce1-XEuXO2-delta (0  lt = x  lt = 0.30) nanoparticles with fluorite structure were synthesized by thermal decomposition of Eu- and Ce-2,4-pentanedione complexes mixtures. X-ray line broadening analysis of mixed samples Ce1-XEuXO2-delta (0.05  lt = x  lt = 0.30) showed that the crystallite size was lower and root mean square strain higher than in pure ceria. However, within mixed samples Ce1-XEuXO2-delta (0.05  lt = x  lt = 0.30) crystallite size and root mean square strain were independent of Eu3+ concentration. Raman spectroscopy results indicated that europium ions yield disorder by breaking the phonon propagation and therefore making the non-centre Brillouin zone modes Raman active. The absorption bands in the spectra of mixed oxides were blue-shifted in comparison to pure CeO2-delta nanopowder. The samples show red emission typical for Eu ions. The biggest photoluminescent intensity was observed for the highest Eu3+ concentration (x = 0.30) and further enhanced with the increase in crystallinity.
