FM finalist at the INTERMAG 2021 Magnetism as Art Showcase

2021/05/11

Our Nanoparticle Feddy bear was among the four finalists at the INTERMAG 2021 Magnetism as Art Showcase! Thanks to all who voted!

This naturally-formed teddy bear consists of iron nanoparticles (hence the name 'Feddy') obtained by hydrogen reduction of Fe2O3. The average particle size is about 50 nm and they form large micrometer-range clusters. These nanoparticles possess high saturation magnetization and, surprisingly, a coercivity that exceeds the theoretical anisotropy field value.
