摘要
In this study, author investigated the spectral response of EM (electromagnetic) energy absorption in a colloidal system of Fe3O4 nanoparticles with an average size of 9.50 nm immersed in a 2% aqueous solution of SDS (sodium dodeci[ sulfate). The temperature of the nanoparticles and the SDS solution was evaluated by a novel method based on measuring the Q-factor (quality-factor) of a resonant circuit. The Q-factor of the investigated system as a function of the frequency of the EM field was obtained. The nanoparticles-SDS liquid system exhibited a resonance-like behavior of the absorption, where the resonance frequency was about 170 MHz, and the absorption rise up to the resonance frequency was rather slow. The observed absorption of EM energy was accompanied by a small temperature increasing of the system. Measurements of the ESR (electron spin resonance) spectrum of the Fe3O4 nanoparticles have presented a slightly asymmetric singlet with the proportionality factor g = 2 and a line-width of the magnetic field strength △H = 0.1 mT. It was shown that the observed absorption spectrum corresponds to paramagnetic behavior of the investigated nanoparticles.
