The nanostructures were synthesized through the sol-gel auto combustion technique. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis with the Rietveld refinement through the Material Analysis Using Diffraction (MAUD) program confirmed a single-phase spinel structure for lower contents of Gd.

Studies show that the magnetic properties are strongly affected by the magnetic anisotropy of NPs and by interparticle interactions that are the result of the collective magnetic behavior of NPs. Here we study these effects in more detail.
