The Interplay of Core Diameter and Diameter Ratio on the Magnetic Properties of Bistable Glass-Coated Microwires.

Glass-coated microwires exhibiting magnetic bistability have garnered significant attention as promising wireless sensing elements, primarily due to their rapid magnetization switching capabilities. These microwires consist of a metallic core with diameter , encased in a glass coating, with a total diameter . In this study, we investigated how the dimensions of both components and their ratio (/) influence the magnetization reversal behavior of Fe-based microwires.

Gold/cobalt ferrite nanocomposite as a potential agent for photothermal therapy.

The study encompasses an investigation of optical, photothermal and biocompatibility properties of a composite consisting of golden cores surrounded by superparamagnetic CoFeO nanoparticles. Accompanied with the experiment, the computational modeling reveals that each adjusted magnetic nanoparticle redshifts the plasmon resonance frequency in gold and nonlinearly increases the extinction cross-section at ~800 nm. The concentration dependent photothermal study demonstrates a temperature increase of 8.

Spatial Manipulation of Particles and Cells at Micro- and Nanoscale via Magnetic Forces.

The importance of magnetic micro- and nanoparticles for applications in biomedical technology is widely recognised. Many of these applications, including tissue engineering, cell sorting, biosensors, drug delivery, and lab-on-chip devices, require remote manipulation of magnetic objects. High-gradient magnetic fields generated by micromagnets in the range of 10-10 T/m are sufficient for magnetic forces to overcome other forces caused by viscosity, gravity, and thermal fluctuations.

High-Frequency Magnetoimpedance (MI) and Stress-MI in Amorphous Microwires with Different Anisotropies.

Magnetoimpedance (MI) in Co-based microwires with an amorphous and partially crystalline state was investigated at elevated frequencies (up to several GHz), with particular attention paid to the influence of tensile stress on the MI behavior, which is called stress-MI. Two mechanisms of MI sensitivity related to the DC magnetization re-orientation and AC permeability dispersion were discussed. Remarkable sensitivity of impedance changes with respect to applied tensile stress at GHz frequencies was obtained in partially crystalline wires subjected to current annealing.

One-Step Synthesis of Magnetic Nanocomposite with Embedded Biologically Active Substance.

Magnetic nanocomposites based on hydroxyapatite were prepared by a one-step process using the hydrothermal coprecipitation method to sinter iron oxides (FeO and γ-FeO). The possibility of expanding the proposed technique for the synthesis of magnetic composite with embedded biologically active substance (BAS) of the 2-arylaminopyrimidine group was shown. The composition, morphology, structural features, and magnetic characteristics of the nanocomposites synthesized with and without BAS were studied.
