Abstract

This article discusses the origin and exhibition of the exchange bias (EB) phenomenon and magnetic memory effect in a variety of time (t) and temperature (T) dependent protocols in nanocrystalline CoSb2O4 (CSO). The traditional hydrothermal technique was followed in the preparation of cuboid shaped nanoparticles. The as-synthesized sample was characterized well via powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies revealing crystallite and particle sizes of ∼51 and ∼96 nm, respectively. Thermal variation of magnetization [M(T)] suggests creation of a canted antiferromagnetic (AFM) ground state with multiple magnetic transitions around 79, 50 and 11 K. Sizable orbital moment contribution has been validated from the mismatch between the experimental value and the theoretical estimation of the Curie–Weiss moment. Cooling field induced metastability below the first order magnetic transition and the explicit signature of the magneto-caloric-effect in terms of the change in entropy are two noteworthy features in this system. Below the ordering temperature, a substantial amount of EB (with EB field (HE) = 800 Oe at 3 K with a 40 kOe cooling field) has been demonstrated through the shift in the magnetic hysteresis (MH) loop when cooled in an external magnetic field. Exchange interaction originates due to the cumulative effect of disorder and competing interactions because of the coexistence of more than one type of spin order. Creation of a super-spin-glass (SSG) like state due to the finite size effect and a strong dipolar interaction in the nanoparticle assembly manifest the memory effect in M(T) in field-cooled (FC) and zero-field-cooled (ZFC) protocols along with isothermal remanent magnetization (IRM) mechanisms.

纳米晶CoSb2O4的磁记忆效应和交换偏置
本文讨论了纳米晶CoSb2O4 (CSO)中交换偏置(EB)现象和磁记忆效应在不同时间(t)和温度(t)依赖协议下的起源和表现。采用传统的水热法制备长方体纳米颗粒。通过粉末x射线衍射(PXRD)和透射电子显微镜(TEM)对合成的样品进行了很好的表征,发现晶体和颗粒尺寸分别为~ 51和~ 96 nm。磁化强度的热变化[M(T)]表明产生了倾斜反铁磁(AFM)基态,在79、50和11 K左右具有多次磁跃迁。从居里-魏斯矩的实验值与理论估计的不匹配中验证了相当大的轨道矩贡献。冷却场诱导的一阶磁跃迁以下的亚稳态和磁热效应在熵变化方面的明显特征是该系统的两个值得注意的特征。在排序温度以下,通过磁滞回线(M−H)在外部磁场中冷却时的位移证明了大量的EB(在3k时EB场(HE) = 800 Oe,冷却场为40 kOe)。交换相互作用是由于无序的累积效应而产生的,而竞争相互作用是由于一种以上自旋有序的共存而产生的。由于有限尺寸效应和纳米粒子组装中的强偶极相互作用,产生了类似超自旋玻璃(SSG)的状态,这表明了场冷(FC)和零场冷(ZFC)协议中的M(T)记忆效应以及等温剩余磁化(IRM)机制。
