Diamagnetic Shielding of Nuclei: Local Diamagnetic Current01:14

Diamagnetic Shielding of Nuclei: Local Diamagnetic Current

An applied magnetic field causes the electrons present in the molecule to circulate, setting up a local diamagnetic current within the molecule. The local diamagnetic current arising from circulating sigma-bonding electrons induces a magnetic field, Blocal that opposes the applied magnetic field, B0. The effective magnetic field experienced by these nuclei is given by the difference between the applied and local magnetic fields in a phenomenon called local diamagnetic shielding. Essentially,...

Main Methods:

  • Synthesis of faceted and tetracubic wustite-magnetite nanocrystals.
  • Coating nanocrystals with continuous gold shell layers.
  • Characterization of magnetic and plasmonic properties.
  • Theoretical analysis of plasmon tunability and core permittivity.

Main Results:

  • Composite nanostructures exhibit ferrimagnetic behavior.
  • Plasmonic properties are significantly influenced by the iron oxide core's dielectric constant.
  • Geometric plasmon tuning correlates with core permittivity.

Conclusions:

  • Gold-coated iron oxide nanoparticles possess dual magnetic and plasmonic properties.
  • Plasmonic behavior provides a direct route to identifying the dielectric properties of the mixed oxide magnetic core.
