description

Abstract We present the results of magnetic properties investigations of ferromagnetic nanoparticles which ensembled with ferromagnetic shell. The aim of this work is to study the connection of structure–phase composition and thermal treatment with the magnetic properties, partially, with the coercive force and the exchange bias field in a two-dimension spin system of core–shell type. It is found that the exchange bias field increases with the growth of the oxide shell thickness. This is realized by annealing in a dosed oxygen flow. The decrease of the coercive force with the increase of annealing temperature is connected with the concentration effect (the concentration of ferromagnetic particles decreases).
