Impact of Gd, Pr, Yb, and Nd doping on the magnetic properties of Mg-ferrite nanoparticles
Abstract This study aimed to synthesize MgFe1.9Ln0.1O4 (where, Ln = Yb, Pr, Gd, and Nd) ferrite nanoparticles via the sol-gel process and investigate their structural, morphological, and magnetic properties for potential hyperthermia applications. X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) confirmed the cubic...

description | Abstract This study aimed to synthesize MgFe1.9Ln0.1O4 (where, Ln = Yb, Pr, Gd, and Nd) ferrite nanoparticles via the sol-gel process and investigate their structural, morphological, and magnetic properties for potential hyperthermia applications. X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) confirmed the cubic spinel structure for all samples. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images revealed nanometer-scale dimensions and nearly spherical morphology. Vibrating sample magnetometer measurements (VSM) indicated superparamagnetic behavior, with decreasing saturation magnetization (Ms) observed as Ln3+ content decreased. Specific absorption rate (SAR) analysis at 198 kHz demonstrated the influence of Ln3+ substitution on magnetic properties. Compared to existing studies, Ln3+ substituted (Yb, Pr, Gd, and Nd) nanoparticles demonstrate tunable magnetic properties and enhanced SAR performance, offering a more efficient design for hyperthermia treatment of solid tumors.
