Interplay of chemical structure and magnetic order coupling at the interface between Cr2O3 and Fe3O4 in hybrid nanocomposites

Abstract

Hybrid nanocomposites based on ferrimagnetic (FiM) Fe3O4 and magnetoelectric antiferromagnetic (AFM) Cr2O3 nanocrystals were synthesized to offer a particular three-dimensional (3D) interface between the two oxides. This interface favours an intermixing process (demonstrated by combining Raman spectroscopy and magnetization measurements) that determines the final magnetic behavior.
