Includes bibliographical references (p. 44-46).
This thesis seeks to correlate hysteretic power loss of tertiary ferrite nanoparticles in alternating magnetic fields to trends predicted by physical models. By employing integration of hysteresis loops simulated from physical models for single-domain ferromagnets, we have identified ferrite materials optimal for remote heating. Several organometallic thermal decomposition methods were adapted to synthesize nanoparticles with anisotropy energies varying over 3 orders of magnitude and transferred into water using a high-temperature ligand exchange protocol. Furthermore, we compare nanoparticles of the same composition and size produced via different synthesis conditions and highlight differences in their materials properties. These analyses identify the synthesis conditions that yield nanoparticles with optimized magnetic properties and with some of the highest power dissipation (specific loss power) found in literature for tertiary ferrite materials.

Texto completoResumen
The magnetic separation approach has several advantages compared with conventional separation methodsit can be performed directly in crude samples containing suspended solid materials without pretreatment, and can easily isolate some biomolecules from aqueous systems in the presence of magnetic gradient fields. This thesis focused on the development of new class of magnetic separation material particularly useful for the separation of histidine-tagged proteins from the complex matrixes through the use of imidazole side chains of histidine molecules. For that reason surface modified cobalt ferrite nanoparticles which contain Ni-NTA affinity group were synthesized. Firstly, cobalt ferrite nanoparticles with a narrow size distribution were prepared in aqueous solution using the controlled coprecipitation method. In order to obtain small size of agglomerates two different dispersants, oleic acid and sodium chloride, were tried. After obtaining the best dispersant and optimum experimental conditions, ultrasonic bath was used in order to decrease the size of agglomerates. Then, they were coated with silica and this was followed by surface modification of these nanoparticles by amine in order to add functional groups on silica shell. Next, &ndash
COOH functional groups were added to silica coated cobalt ferrite magnetic nanoparticles through the NH2 groups. After that N&alpha
,N&alpha
-Bis(carboxymethyl)-L-lysine hydrate, NTA, was attached to carboxyl side of the structure. Finally, nanoparticles were labeled with Ni (II) ions. The size of the magnetic nanoparticles and their agglomerates were determined by FE-SEM images, particle size analyzer, and zeta potential analyzer (zeta-sizer). Vibrational sample magnetometer (VSM) was used to measure the magnetic behavior of cobalt ferrite and silica coated cobalt ferrite magnetic nanoparticles. Surface modifications of magnetic nanoparticles were followed by FT-IR measurements. ICP-OES was used to find the amount of Ni (II) ion concentration that was attached to the magnetic nanoparticle.

The interest in magnetic nanoparticles is multi-dimensional. Fundamentally, it is important to be able to control their magnetic properties and to correlate to specific applications. In biology, magnetic nanoparticles offer promising potential as magnetic carriers or chaperones for magnetic localization and manipulation of therapeutic reagents.
The synthesis of superparamagnetic CoFe2-xSmxO4 nanoparticles and the tunability of their magnetic properties by size and composition variations are discussed. An increase in size of CoSm0.19Fe1.81O4 nanoparticles produced an increase in blocking temperature and saturation magnetization, but a non-linear coercitivity response was observed with change in size. By varying the composition, the saturation magnetization of CoFe2-xSmxO4 decreased dramatically while the coercitivity increased when compared to native cobalt spinel ferrite (CoFe2O4) nanoparticles. These results demonstrate how the magnetic properties of cobalt spinel ferrite nanoparticles can be tailored to specific applications.
Surface modifications of cobalt spinel ferrite nanoparticles facilitated the conjugation of oligonucleotides. Using a transfection reagent, CoFe2O4 ??igonucleotide conjugates were delivered into mammalian cells. Post transfection, synchronized movement of cells in response to an external magnetic field was observed. This demonstrated the possibility of magnetic manipulation and localization of therapeutic reagents coupled to CoFe2O4 magnetic nanoparticles.
Results from this thesis demonstrate the potential role of magnetic spinel nanoparticles in cell biology and will facilitate the progress towards in vivo testing.

Texto completoResumen
In the field of biomedicine, important issues to address are the early-stage diagnosis and targeted therapies. Since the last two decades, magnetic nanoparticles have been proposed as potentially powerful due to their unique chemical-physical properties. Magnetic nanoparticles can be applied in a wide variety of biomedical fields from the magnetic separation and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to drug delivery and Magnetic Fluid Hyperthermia (MFH).1 In particular, MFH is based on the heat released by magnetic nanoparticles subjected to an alternate external magnetic field. Among the different material features affecting the hyperthermic efficiency, the magnetic properties are clearly the most important. Therefore, the optimisation of the magnetic properties, aimed to increase the heating ability and to reduce the magnetic material dose to be inserted in the human body, is still an active research field. In 2013 alone, 682 works have been published in the literature on the topic of magnetic hyperthermia.2
Despite cobalt toxicity, cobalt-containing materials and especially cobalt ferrite nanoparticles have been proposed as promising heat mediators due to its high anisotropy.3–13
In this thesis, the results obtained on two different systems, designed with the idea of studying the effect on the hyperthermic properties of proper tuning of the magnetic properties, are presented. Both the sets of samples are based on cobalt ferrite nanoparticles. The first strategy consists on the substitution of cobalt ions with zinc ones with the aim of tuning the magnetic properties of the system and, at the same time, decrease the toxicity of the material. The second way is on the contrary represented by the coating of cobalt ferrite cores by means of biocompatible or less toxic isostructural phases (i.e. magnetite/maghemite or manganese ferrite).

In this thesis, the commercial viability of the aminolytic synthesis method is explored through robustness, versatility, and waste reduction studies. We report the preparation of metal precursors and the development of a synthetic approach using an aminolytic reaction of metal carboxylates in oleylamine and non-coordinating solvent. Manganese doping in the cobalt ferrites allows for the investigation of the couplings. All the compositions in the series Co1-xMnxFe2O4, 0.0 x 1.0 were synthesized via the aminolytic reaction. The coercivity decreases with increasing Mn2+ concentration due to reducing of high magnetic anisotropy ion (Co2+) content. To our knowledge, this work is the first completed series of Co1-xMnxFe2O4. The method is used to synthesize manganese ferrites dope with chromium. This allows for the investigation of the effects of orbital momentum quantum coupling. All the compositions of MnFe2-xCrxO4, x= 0.0, 0.05, 0.13, 0.25, 0.43, 0.62, and 0.85, were synthesized via the In-situ aminolytic method. Chromium concentration weakens the couplings resulting in the decrease in overall magnetic moment. All by-products can be recycled for re-utilization. The "mother" solution can be used for multiple batches without treatment. Our trials have shown that the reaction could undergo ten reactions using the same solution without scarifying the quality or yield of the product. Finally, an environmental application is explored through the use of iron oxides. Samples of goethite, maghemite, magnetite, and hematite were synthesized and characterized. These nanoparticles were exposed to arsenic and chromium solutions to measure the percent uptake of contaminant by each phase. Adsorption isotherms were plotted to obtain Freundlich parameters. The adsorption constant (K) averages over a 400% increase on literature values. We synthesized hematite and maghemite core-shell particles and exposed them to arsenite and maghemite core-shell particles have the higher removal affinity due to their smaller size.

In this presentation it is demonstrated that the unique magnetic properties of superparamagnetic cobalt-spinel ferrite nanoparticles can be employed in several novel applications. A method to selectively capture and remove pathogens from infected organisms to improve longevity is presented. Evidence is provided to show that automated methods using modified forms of hemofiltration or peritoneal dialysis could be used to eliminate the particle/pathogen or particle/infected cell conjugates from the organism postoperatively. It is shown that disparately functionalized nanoparticles can be used in concert as drug carrier and release mechanisms. Lastly, we provide preliminary evidence to support the use of magnetic nanoparticles for controlling reaction kinetics.

The synthesis of nickel ferrite nanoparticles was used various fuel substances such as glycine, urea and citric acid. The mixture prepared in stoichiometric rates was put in to the kitchen type microwave oven. In the end of reaction time was obtained a brown-black solid. The obtained solid was characterized with X-Ray Powder Diffraction and Scanning Electron Microscopy. The results of this analysis showed that all of the obtained particles have got nano-size particle size distribution. To determine the magnetic properties of the nanoparticles were analyzed by using a vibrating sample magnetometer. Fuel type used in synthesis is quite effective on the magnetic properties of NiFe2O4 nanoparticles.

The paper describes creation of cobalt ferrous spinel ferrite nanoparticles and investigation of their
phase composition, surface structure and magnetic properties. Cobalt ferrous spinel ferrite nanoparticles
were synthesized in an aerated system of steel electrode contacting with aqueous cobalt chloride at different
pH values of solution. According to X-Ray diffraction data, it was shown, that some impurity phases also
formed during the synthesis process, notably, lepidocrocite and goethite on the steel surface and Green
Rust I, cobalt hydroxide, heterohenite in the solution. The quantity of such phases depends on pH value of
initial solution. The size of synthesized cobalt ferrous spinel ferrite nanoparticles was approximately 10 –
12 nm. Saturation magnetization of synthesized cobalt ferrous spinel ferrite nanoparticles is rather high.
Synthesized magnetic cobalt ferrous spinel ferrite nanoparticles are promising for different medicalbiological
applications.

Texto completoResumen
Magnetic nanoparticles are of great interest for a wide range of applications. This work has focused on three primary forms of iron based nanoparticles and combinations thereof: α-iron, iron oxide, and iron carbide or cementite. The synthesis of several core-shell particles including cementite-iron oxide, α-iron-cementite, and α-iron-iron oxide was accomplished through reverse micelle routes and high temperature decomposition of iron pentacarbonyl in various media. Structural analysis to confirm the structures was performed using extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) techniques. A rapid characterization technique was developed utilizing a correlation between Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and EXAFS to determine the full metal cation distribution between the octahedral and tetrahedral sites in manganese zinc ferrite (MZFO). This method was then used to show that the initial Fe3+ to Fe2+ ratio in MZFO synthesis could be used to design a desired cation distribution and affected the zinc incorporation levels into the resultant ferrite. Functionalization of nanoparticles for aqueous dispersions and ferrofluids has varying degrees of importance, depending on the application. In applications such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) where the targets are biological systems, it was important to produce solutions that will not aggregate in the high magnetic field of the MRI. It was also vital to characterize decomposition mechanisms and products that would be presented to the body after use as a contrast agent. This work has provided insight into both the preparation of magnetic samples for MRI applications and implications of the biocompatibility of reactive and decomposition products. Three successful methods of forming dispersions that would not aggregate in the high magnetic field of the MRI were comprised of cysteine/polyethylene glycol (PEG), PEG based ferrofluids, and dopamine/PEG. The dopamine functionalization however showed reactivity with the iron/iron oxide nanoparticles and led to the formation of the cytotoxic dopamine quinone and resulted in the destruction of the nanoparticles. Using all three types of dispersions to compare the iron based nanomaterials, the MRI measurements concluded with the iron oxide ferrofluid yielding the highest R2 enhancement.

Texto completoResumen
Cobalt Ferrite has important, size-dependent magnetic properties. Consequently, an overview of particle size is important. Co-precipitation in air was the fabrication method used because it is comparatively simple and safe. The effects of three different reaction times including 1, 2, 3 hour(s) on particle size were compared. Also, the effectiveness of three different capping agents (Oleic Acid, Polyvinylpyrollidone (PVP), and Trisodium Citrate) in reducing aggregation and correspondingly particle size were examined. Using Welch’s analysis of variance (ANOVA) and the relevant post hoc tests, there was no significant difference (p=0.05) between reaction times of 1 hour and 2 hours, but there was a significant difference between reaction times of 2 hours and 3 hours. Potentially, because of increased coarsening for the 3 hour reaction time. PVP and Oleic Acid were shown to be effective in reducing aggregation; however, Citrate was not effective. Possibly, the synthesis procedure was inadequate.

L’utilisation de terres rares dans des dispositifs d’enregistrement de données est très coûteux et polluant. Leur remplacement par de l’oxyde de fer permettrait de s’affranchir de cela. En-dessous d’une taille de 20 nm, les nanoparticules d’oxyde de fer ne peuvent pas être considérées comme des aimants permanents. Une alternative consiste à les combiner à une autre phase magnétique pour permettre d’augmenter leur anisotropie magnétique via un couplage d’échange interfacial au sein de nanoparticules de type coeur@coquille. En revanche la stabilité magnétique de ces dernières reste insuffisante. L’objectif de cette thèse est de concevoir un nouveau type de nanoparticules magnétiques de type coeur@coquille@coquille avec un cœur de Fe3-dO4 et des coquilles de CoFe2O4, CoO ou NiO qui a permis d’augmenter encore les propriétés magnétiques tout en conservant une taille inférieure à 18 nm.

Texto completoResumen
Cette étude propose l'idée des aimants dits de ferrite tétragonale en rendant la symétrie cristalline des ferrites de spinelle cubique afin d'améliorer l'anisotropie magnétique (et donc, d'améliorer la coercivité). Pour concrétiser cette idée, nous avons synthétisé des particules (Cu, Co) -ferrite à distorsion tétragonale et caractérisé systématiquement les propriétés magnétiques en conséquence avec leurs distorsions de réseau. Les facteurs intrinsèques et extrinsèques contribuant à la coercivité ont été étudiés. Pour élucider l'anisotropie magnétique, nous avons démontré un modèle de couplage physique de l'effet Jahn-Teller (JT) et de l'effet magnétoélastique (ME) au sein de la théorie phénoménologique. Ensuite, nous avons effectué une analyse de coercivité dans deux modèles généraux de coercivité afin de clarifier les paramètres de la microstructure contribuant au mécanisme d'inversion de la magnétisation. À partir de l'analyse du modèle magnétoélastique, nous avons démontré l'expression linéaire de l'anisotropie magnétique en utilisant le paramètre tétragonal obtenu à partir de la distorsion JT. Les valeurs du coefficient magnétoélastique pour Cu (B1Cu = 2 MJ / m3) et Co (B1Co = 40 MJ / m3) déduites de la courbe expérimentale étaient acceptables avec la valeur calculée pour le ferrite de cuivre en vrac (B1Cu en vrac = 4 MJ / m3) et le cobalt. ferrite (masse B1Co = 55 MJ / m3). Les résultats suggèrent que l’anisotropie magnétique peut être attribuée au couplage de la distorsion JT avec l’effet magnétoélastique de Co. Au lieu d’une augmentation indéfinie avec x, l’anisotropie magnétique Ku tend à atteindre une valeur de saturation en raison de la concurrence entre les effet magnétoélastique de Co et le JT de Cu. Entre le x tétragonal x = 0,1 et le x cubique = 0,2, les valeurs de Ku constantes d'anisotropie magnétique intrinsèque ne varient pas de manière aussi significative que la différence entre les champs de coercivité et d'anisotropie. La réduction des champs d'anisotropie supérieurs à x = 0,1 peut alors être attribuée à l'augmentation de l'aimantation spontanée. L'analyse de la coercivité au sein du modèle micromagnétique a révélé une contribution importante à la coercivité de la microstructure et de l'effet démagnétisant local. Le paramètre de microstructure αMM = 0,25 obtenu était une valeur classique de l'analyse micromagnétique, suggérant le départ du champ d'anisotropie avec ce facteur de réduction. Les facteurs démagnétisants locaux effectifs NeffMM d’environ 1,4 obtenus étaient plutôt importants, ce qui suggère un effet démagnétisant significatif. Dans l'analyse du modèle global (GM), les valeurs de NeffGM obtenues étaient were 0,38 pour l'échantillon x = 0,1. La valeur négative suggère la présence d'une interaction d'échange agissant efficacement en opposition à l'interaction dipolaire. En deçà de 100 K, une différence dans le modèle suggère l’idée d’un réchauffement local consécutif à l’activation thermique due au changement d’énergie Zeeman et à une dissipation de chaleur inefficace. Cet événement peut avoir conduit à la réduction du champ coercitif à une température suffisamment basse dans l'échantillon x = 0.1 en supposant que les grains sont fortement couplés en échangeThis study proposes the idea of the so-called tetragonal ferrite magnets by rendering the crystal symmetry of the cubic spinel ferrites to enhance the magnetic anisotropy (and hence, enhance the coercivity). To realize this idea, we synthesized tetragonally distorted (Cu,Co)-ferrite particles and systematically characterized the magnetic properties accordingly with their lattice distortions. The intrinsic and extrinsic factors contributing to coercivity were investigated. To elucidate the magnetic anisotropy, we demonstrated a physical coupling model of the Jahn-Teller (JT) effect and the magnetoelastic (ME) effect within the phenomenological theory. Then, we performed coercivity analysis within two general models of coercivity to clarify the microstructure parameters contributing to the magnetization reversal mechanism. From the magnetoelastic model analysis, we demonstrated the linear expression of the magnetic anisotropy using the tetragonal parameter obtained from the JT distortion. The magnetoelastic coefficient values for Cu (B1Cu = 2 MJ/m3) and Co (B1Co = 40 MJ/m3) deduced from the experimental curve were agreeable with the value calculated for bulk copper ferrite (B1Cu bulk= 4 MJ/m3) and cobalt ferrite (B1Co bulk= 55 MJ/m3). The results suggests that the source of magnetic anisotropy can be attributed to the coupling of the JT distortion with the magnetoelastic effect of Co. Instead of an indefinite increase with x, the magnetic anisotropy Ku tends to reach a saturation value due to the competition between the magnetoelastic effect of Co and the JT effect of Cu. Between the tetragonal x = 0.1 and the cubic x = 0.2 samples, the intrinsic magnetic anisotropy constant Ku values do not vary as significantly compared to the difference in the coercivity and the anisotropy fields. The reduction of anisotropy fields above x = 0.1 then can be attributed to the increase in the spontaneous magnetization.The coercivity analysis within the micromagnetic model revealed significant contribution to the coercivity by the microstructure and the local demagnetizing effect. The microstructure parameter αMM = 0.25 obtained was a classical value in the micromagnetic analysis, suggesting the departure of anisotropy field with this reduction factor. The effective local demagnetizing factor NeffMM of about 1.4 obtained were rather large suggesting a significant demagnetizing effect. Within the global model (GM) analysis, the values of NeffGM obtained were －0.38 for the x = 0.1 sample. The negative value suggests the presence of an exchange interaction acting effectively in opposition to the dipolar interaction. Below 100 K, discrepancy in the GM suggests the idea of a local heating event following the thermal activation due to the change in Zeeman energy and ineffective heat dissipation. This event may have led to the reduction of coercive field at sufficiently low temperature in the x = 0.1 sample assuming the grains are strongly exchange-coupled

The correlationship between magnetic properties and magnetic couplings is established through the investigations of various cubic spinel ferrite nanocrystals. The results of this thesis contribute to the knowledge of size and shape controlled synthesis of various spinel ferrites and core shell architectured nanocrystals as well as the nanomagnetism in spinel ferrites by systematically investigating the effects of spin orbital coupling, magnetocrystalline anisotropy, exchange coupling, shape and surface anisotropy upon superparamagnetic properties of spinel ferrite nanocrystals. A general synthetic method is developed for size and shape control of metal oxide nanocrystals. The size and shape dependent superparamagnetic properties are discussed. The relationship between spin orbital coupling and magnetocrystalline anisotropy is studied comparatively on variable sizes of spherical CoFe2O4 and Fe3O4 nanocrystals. It also addresses the effect of exchange coupling between magnetic hard phase and soft phase upon magnetic properties in core shell structured spinel ferrite nanocrystals. The role of anisotropic shapes of nanocrystals upon self assembled orientation ordered superstructures are investigated. The effect of thermal stability of molecular precursors upon size controlled synthesis of MnFe2O4 nanocrystals and the size dependent superparamagnetic properties are described.

Neste trabalho, estudou-se a síntese por sol-gel da ferrita de cobalto (CoFe2O4), variando-se a temperatura de tratamento térmico do xerogel. Nitrato de ferro e nitrato de cobalto foram utilizados como fonte de cátions e ácido cítrico como mineralizador. Os produtos obtidos, tratados a 750, 800 e 850°C, tiveram sua microestrutura e propriedades magnéticas investigadas no intuito de encontrar correlações entre as condições de síntese, as posições ocupadas pelos cátions dentro da estrutura espinélio do composto e as propriedades magnéticas medidas. Estudos de difratometria de raios X exibiram reflexões características da estrutura espinélio, o que sugere que o tratamento térmico não afetou significativamente a estrutura cristalina do material. Uma fração secundária de hematita também foi observada. As ferritas apresentaram área superficial específica (por BET) de aproximadamente 4 m².g-1. Imagens por MEV indicam que o material apresenta-se aglomerado. Quanto às propriedades magnéticas, um máximo de coercividade de 1405.2 Oersted foi encontrado para a amostra tratada a 800°C. Espectros Mößbauer indicaram um baixo grau de inversão nos espinélios formados, o que é incomum para a ferrita de cobalto. Subtraindo do espectro obtido por Mößbauer o excesso de ferro na forma de hematita, há um forte indicativo que a ferrita foi sintetizada de maneira sub-estequiométrica deficiente em ferro.We herein report a study on the sol-gel synthesis of cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4) and the effect of treatment temperature on the product outcome. Iron nitrate and cobalt nitrate were used as cation sources and citric acid as mineralizer. Products treated at 750, 800 and 850°C had their microstructure and magnetic properties assessed in order to correlate their synthesis conditions, the positions in which the cations are inserted in the spinel structure and the magnetic behavior displayed by the ferrites. X-ray diffractometry studies exhibit the characteristic reflections of spinel group materials, suggesting that the thermal treatment does not sensibly affect the crystalline structure of the material. A secondary fraction of hematite was also observed. The ferrites exhibit a specific surface area (from BET) of approximately 4 m².g-1. SEM images indicate the material forms agglomerates. As to the magnetic properties, a maximum of 1405.2 Oersted was achieved for the sample treated at 800°C. Mößbauer spectra indicate a fairly low inversion degree in the synthesized materials, which is rather unusual for cobalt ferrite. After deducting the iron fraction present in the form of hematite, there are strong indications that cobalt ferrite was synthesized as a substoichiometric iron-deficient spinel.

Ce travail de thèse est consacré à l’étude des propriétés magnéto-optiques de nanoparticules (NP) magnétiques de ferrite de cobalt (CoFe2O4) sous forme liquide et lorsqu’elles sont bloquées dans une matrice de silice produite par voie sol-gel. Cette dernière dispersion constitue un matériau composite à activité magnéto-optique obtenu par un procédé basse température qui le rend totalement compatible avec les technologies d’intégration. A plus long terme, ce matériau pourra contribuer à l’intégration de composants non-réciproques. L’objectif de ce travail est d’une part l’identification du type de NP qui maximise la rotation Faraday et le facteur de mérite (rapport de la rotation Faraday à l’absorption) dans le but d’améliorer la qualité magnéto-optique du matériau composite. Et d’autre part, il s’agit d’améliorer la compréhension des phénomènes physiques liés aux effets magnéto-optiques de ces nanoparticules et le lien avec leurs caractéristiques physiques. L’étude est menée sur des NP magnétiques synthétisées et dispersées en phase aqueuse au laboratoire PHENIX (UMR CNRS 8234). Les mesures optiques et magnéto-optiques réalisées au laboratoire Hubert Curien (UMR CNRS 5516) ont été complétées par des mesures magnétiques XMCD au synchrotron SOLEIL. L’étude des différentes nanoparticules magnétiques a révélé que l’utilisation d’une petite taille de NP permet de multiplier par deux le facteur de mérite du matériau pour une longueur d’onde de 1,5 µm, soit une division par deux des pertes pour les composants magnéto-optiques visés. L’analyse du comportement spectral de l’effet Faraday illustre l’influence de la distribution cationique des ions Co2+ et Fe3+ dans la structure cristalline. Couplée aux mesures XMCD, l’analyse montre le besoin d’une localisation de l’ion Co2+ en site tétraédrique dans la structure spinelle pour maximiser l’effet Faraday à 1,5µm, et obtenir une anisotropie uniaxe qui permette une pré-orientation aisée des NP lors de la gélificationThis work is dedicated to the study of the magneto-optical properties of cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4) nanoparticles (NP) dispersed in liquid as ferrofluid, or blocked in a solid silica matrix realized with a sol-gel method. This last dispersion is a magneto-optical composite material, obtained with a low temperature process which insures its compatibility with photonic integration technologies, to produce, in the future, integrated non-reciprocal devices. The aim of the study is, on one hand, to identify which kind of NP can improve the Faraday effect and the merit factor (ratio between the Faraday effect and the absorption) of the composite material. On the other hand, the aim is to give a better understanding of the link between the magneto-optical properties and the physical characteristics of the NP. The study has been led on NP synthetized and dispersed as ferrofluid in PHENIX laboratory (UMR CNRS 8234). Optical and magneto-optical measurements were made in Hubert Curien laboratory (UMR CNRS 5516) and completed by XMCD analysis in Synchroton SOLEIL. Results show that it is necessary to use a small size of NP (5 nm) to maximize the merit factor at a wavelength of 1,5 µm. The spectral analysis of the Faraday effect shows the influence of the cationic distribution of Co2+ et Fe3+ in the spinelle structure. Coupled to XMCD results, this analysis shows that it is necessary to maximize the quantity of Co2+ in tetraedric sites to maximize the Faraday effect at 1,5 µm and to obtain an uniaxial anisotropy which allows to orientate the NP during the gelification of the sol-gel matrix

Les composants passifs hyperfréquences deviennent de plus en plus commercialisés et employés dans les systèmes de télécommunications. La croissance technologique et l'augmentation de la demande des nouvelles applications requièrent de meilleures performances et de moindres coûts. Dans les applications sans fil et notamment dans les modules " émission/réception ", les circulateurs sont utilisés pour l'émission et la réception des signaux simultanément à l'aide d'une seule antenne. Les couches magnétiques traditionnellement déposées et intégrées exigent une cristallisation à haute température ainsi que l'application d'un champ magnétique externe pour garder l'orientation des moments magnétiques. Cette orientation est cependant obtenue par des aimants lourds et volumineux. Devant ces limitations technologiques ainsi que la demande de miniaturisation, l'emploi de l'hexaferrite de baryum sous sa forme particulaire devrait permettre le développement de circulateurs auto-polarisés et miniaturisés à matériaux magnétiques composites. Les travaux présentés dans ce manuscrit ont pour objectif d'étudier et de réaliser un circulateur hyperfréquence à nano particules magnétiques orientées dans la bande 40-60 GHz. L'état de l'art expose les différentes topologies de circulateurs dont la topologie coplanaire est choisie pour notre application. L'étude analytique est basée sur les travaux de Bosma permettant de modéliser le circulateur triplaque. Les principales dimensions géométriques obtenues sont ensuite transposées vers la structure coplanaire en 3D à l'aide de l'outil de simulation HFSS. Devant les limitations de cet outil, différentes structures ont été étudiées et simulées numériquement pour présenter au mieux le matériau composite. Plusieurs séries de prototypes sont ensuite fabriquées à partir des structures optimisées en simulation numérique. Le matériau magnétique composite déposé a des épaisseurs de 40 et 100 μm. Les caractérisations hyperfréquences montrent la performance des dispositifs réalisés. Des pistes de recherche sont proposées pour l'amélioration des performances de nos prototypes.

Texto completoResumen
Le laboratoire LT2C utilise depuis quelques années un procédé sol-gel basse température pour développer un matériau magnéto-optique composite parfaitement compatible avec les technologies d’optique intégrée sur verre. Néanmoins, la qualité actuelle du matériau ne permet pas son utilisation dans l’intégration des composants à effets non-réciproques. Dans le but d’exalter les effets magnéto-optiques et le facteur de mérite du matériau, le laboratoire LT2C s’est orienté vers sa structuration 3D en adaptant une approche basée sur les opales. Cette dernière consiste à fabriquer des opales directes à partir de l’auto-arrangement de microbilles de polystyrène sur un substrat de verre. Les opales sont ensuite infiltrées par une solution sol-gel dopée par des nanoparticules magnétiques de ferrite de cobalt. Après traitement thermique, le polystyrène est dissout dans l’acétate d’éthyle pour obtenir une structure 3D formée de trous d’air dans une matrice de silice dopée. Dans ce cadre, l’objectif des travaux de cette thèse consiste tout d’abord à optimiser au mieux la procédure d’élaboration des opales afin d’améliorer leur qualité structurelle et magnéto-optique. Ensuite, il consiste à réaliser une étude systématique des effets magnéto-optiques dans ces structures 3D pour investiguer le comportement spectral de l’effet Faraday, et ainsi qualifier les modifications apportées au facteur de mérite. Une analyse des images MEB et une caractérisation optique montrent que notre méthode d’élaboration conduit à la fabrication d’opales de bonne qualité structurelle et optique. Les mesures de rotation et d'ellipticité Faraday en fonction du champ magnétique appliqué présentent des cycles d’hystérésis, et mettent en évidence un effet non-réciproque, ce qui surligne le caractère magnéto-optique des opales inverses dopées. Une étude spectrale systématique des effets magnéto-optiques dans ces structures 3D montre deux pics et une atténuation de rotation et d’ellipticité Faraday, respectivement en bords et au centre de la BIP. Cependant, ces modifications spectrales significatives ne conduisent pas à une exaltation de la valeur du facteur de mérite. Cela est principalement dû aux défauts structurels qui diminuent le niveau de transmission de l’opale inverse dopée par rapport la couche de référenceLT2C laboratory uses since recent years a low temperature sol-gel process to develop a magneto-optical composite material that is perfectly compatible with glass integrated optics. However, due to an actual low figure of merit, this material cannot be embedded on integrated non-reciprocal devices. In order to exalt the magneto-optical effects and figure of merit, the LT2C laboratory adopted a process based on opals to 3D structure the material. The selected process consists in elaborating direct opals by self-assembling monodisperse polystyrene microspheres on glass substrate. Those opals are then impregnated with a homogeneous solution of sol-gel silica precursors doped with cobalt ferrite nanoparticles. Resulting samples are later oven dried for 1 hour at 90°C. Finally, polystyrene spheres are dissolved in ethyl acetate to obtain a 3D structure formed by air voids in doped silica matrix. In this context, the objective of this thesis is to optimize the fabrication process of opals in order to improve their structural and magneto-optical quality. Furthermore, it consists in making a systematic study of the magneto-optical effect in these structures in order to investigate the spectral behavior of the Faraday effect and thus quantify the figure of merit. Analysis of SEM images and optical characterization prove that our elaboration process leads to the fabrication of opals with good structural and optical quality. Measurements of Faraday rotation and ellipticity as a function of applied magnetic field show hysteresis loops with an unambiguous non-reciprocal behavior. These observations highlight the magneto-photonic character of the doped inverse opals. A systematic spectral study of the magneto-optical effect in these 3D structures displays two peaks and an attenuation of Faraday rotation and ellipticity, respectively at the edges and the center of the photonic band gap. However, these significant spectral modifications do not increase the value of figure of merit. This ascertainment is primarily due to structural defects that lower the transmission magnitude of the doped inverse opals in comparison to a magneto-optical reference monolayer

Among nanostructured magnetic materials, nanoparticles (NPs) are unique complex physical objects: in these systems a multidomain organization is energetically unfavorable and single-magnetic-domain particles are formed, each one with a huge magnetic moment with comparison to that of single atoms, thus they are often named “supermoment”. The attractive performance of magnetic NPs based materials are appealing for several technological fields ranging from nanomedicine to high-density magneto recording. Thus, understanding the physics of magnetic nanoparticles and controlling their magnetic properties represent hot topics not only for fundamental studies but also for technological applications. The magnetic behavior of such entities is related to the reversal of their magnetization; this can be a thermal or a field activated transition, which is characterized by an energy barrier defined as a magnetic anisotropy energy (MAE), which is influenced by several parameters. Thus, the tuning of the magnetic properties of nanoparticles means control of the MAE.
In this work it will be discussed how to tune the MAE at the nanoscale showing the main parameters that can influence the anisotropy itself. It will be investigated the role of particle volume in the effective anisotropy, and its correlation with the surface contribution, exploring its strong effect with particle size below 10 nm. In this framework it will be investigated the role of organic coating, underlining its ability to reduce the magnetic disorder arising from the broken symmetry at particles surface. In addition, in nanoparticle ensemble, the MAE may differ from one particle to another due to particles size and shape distributions. Thus it will be defined a detailed statistical analysis of particles’ morphology, leading to the development of a new instrument to analyze particles morphology, called “aspect maps”.
The relation between the physical chemical structures of nanoparticles will be investigated on nickel doped cobalt ferrite samples, demonstrating how to tune the MAE by chemical composition, i.e., controlling magnetocrystalline anisotropy. Furthermore it will be analyzed the evolution of interparticles interactions with respect single particle magnetic anisotropy by means of a modified random anisotropy model.
The last part of this work will deal with the design of novel nanostructured composites. La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 and CoFe2O4 will be combined using two different structures, which can be easily extent to other materials, to improve their magnetic interactions in order to obtain tunable magnetotrasport proprieties of the final composites.

Nanoparticle system research and characterization is the focal point of this research and dissertation. In the research presented here, magnetite, cobalt, and ferrite nanoparticle systems have been explored in regard to their magnetocaloric effect (MCE) properties, as well as for use in polymer composites. Both areas of study have potential applications across a wide variety of interdisciplinary fields.
Magnetite nanoparticles have been successfully dispersed in a polymer. The surface chemistry of the magnetic nanoparticle proves critical to obtaining a homogenous and well separated high density dispersion in PMMA. Theoretical studies found in the literature have indicated that surface interface energy is a critical component in dispersion. Oleic acid is used to alter the surface of magnetite nanoparticles and successfully achieve good dispersion in a PMMA thin film. Polypyrrole is then coated onto the PMMA composite layer. The bilayer is characterized using cross-sectional TEM, cross-sectional SEM, magnetic characterization, and low frequency conductivity. The results show that the superparmagnetic properties of the as synthesized particles are maintained in the composite.
With further study of the properties of these nanoparticles for real and functional uses, MCE is studied on a variety of magnetic nanoparticle systems. Magnetite, manganese zinc ferrite, and cobalt ferrite systems show significant broadening of the MCE and the ability to tune the peak temperature of MCE by varying the size of the nanoparticles. Four distinct systems are studied including cobalt, cobalt core silver shell nanoparticles, nickel ferrite, and ball milled zinc ferrite. The results demonstrate the importance of surface characteristics on MCE. Surface spin disorder appears to have a large influence on the low temperature magnetic and magnetocalorie characteristics of these nanoparticle systems.

Com o desenvolvimento da nanociência e da nanotecnologia, as nanopartículas magnéticas vêm sendo cada vez mais gerado interesse devido as inúmeras possíveis aplicações na área de catálise, diagnóstico, pigmentos, sensores, etc. Atualmente, as nanopartículas com potencialidade de aplicação em biomedicina que pode se destacar os as ferritas magnéticas os quais apresentam comportamento superparamagnético a temperatura ambiente. Além dos ligantes funcionais, as nanopartículas magnéticas são geralmente recobertas com polímeros orgânicos ou inorgânicos, destacando-se a sílica, nessa última classe. O sistemas as nanopartículas magnéticas recobertas com sílica formando um sistema casca-caroço, possibilita que o núcleo magnético se mantenha protegido por uma camada polimérica que pode conter grupos funcionais ativos, formando hidridos orgânicos-inorgânicos que devido a sua propriedade hidrofóbica ou hidrofílica dependendo da natureza do ligante de modificação de superfície. Este trabalho foi desenvolvido com intuito de obter nanopartículas magnéticas de ferrita MFe2O4, com (M= Fe, Co, Ni e Cu) com controle de tamanho, forma, composição química e estrutural, dos quais foram sintetizados pelo método de decomposição térmica utilizando diferente precursores metálicos para adequação das melhores condições de síntese. As ferritas magnéticas foram recobrimento com sílica, modificando da superfície da partícula e possibilitando caráter hidrofílico ao sistema casca-caroço, apresentando uma melhor estabilidade coloidal em dispersão aquosa devido a presença de grupos silanois na superfície, bem como uma recobrimento uniforma com apenas um núcleo magnético sem formação de aglomerados. A funcionalização com o grupo o trietoxivinilsilano, através de reações de condensação via catálise básica ou ácida, formou uma rede polimérica Si-O-Si, sendo que a presença do grupo vinil (-CH=CH2) livre na a superfície do sistema casca-caroço foi evidenciado através da técnica de FTIR. Portanto foi possível a obtenção de um sistema hibrido orgânico-inorgânico com a superfície contendo grupo que podem ser reativos, abrindo a possibilidade da utilização deste material para futuros testes de aplicações como sensor multifuncional.In recent decades the development of nanoscience and nanotechnology, magnetic nanoparticles have been increasingly generated interest due to the numerous possible applications in the field of catalysis, diagnosis, pigments, sensors, etc. Currently, the nanoparticles with potential of application in biomedicine that can stand out the magnetic ferrites which have superparamagnetic behavior at room temperature. In addition to the functional binders, magnetic nanoparticles are generally coated with organic or inorganic polymers, especially silica in the latter class. The magnetic nanoparticle systems covered with silica forming a shell-core system allow the magnetic core to remain protected by a polymeric layer that may contain active functional groups, forming organic-inorganic hydrides that due to its hydrophobic or hydrophilic property depending on the nature of the surface modifying binder. This work was developed to obtain magnetic nanoparticles of MFe2O4 ferrite, with (M = Fe, Co, Ni and Cu) control of size, shape, chemical and structural composition, of which were synthesized by the thermal decomposition method using different precursors to suit the best conditions of synthesis. The magnetic ferrites were coated with silica, modifying the surface of the particle and allowing a hydrophilic character to the shell-core system, presenting a better colloidal stability in aqueous dispersion due to the presence of silane groups on the surface, as well as a uniform coating with only one magnetic core without formation of agglomerates. The functionalization with the triethoxyvinylsilane group, through condensation reactions via basic or acid catalysis, formed a Si-O-Si polymer network, and the presence of the free vinyl group (-CH=CH2) on the shell surface was observed by FTIR technique. Therefore, it was possible to obtain an organic-inorganic hybrid system with the surface containing the reactive group, opening the possibility of using this material for tests of future applications as multifunctional sensor.

Texto completoResumen
Metal oxide nanoparticles, both magnetic and nonmagnetic, have a multitude of applications in gas sensors, catalysts and catalyst supports, airborne trapping agents, biomedicines and drug delivery systems, fuel cells, laser diodes, and magnetic microwaves. Over the past decade, an inexpensive, simple, recyclable, and environmentally friendly large, scale synthesis method for the synthesis of these metal oxide nanoparticles has been sought. Many of the current techniques in use today, while good on the small, laboratory bench scale, suffer from drawbacks that make them unsuitable for the industrial scale. The aminolytic method, developed by Dr. Man Han while working for Dr. Zhang, fits industrial scale-up requirements. The aminolytic method involves a reaction between metal carboxylate(s) and oleylamine in a non-coordinating solvent. This system was shown to produce a range of spinel ferrites. Dr. Lisa Vaughan showed that this method can be recycled multiple times without degrading the quality of the produced nanoparticles. The purpose of this thesis is to test the versatility of the aminolytic method in the production of a wide range of metal oxides as well as various core/shell systems. Chapter 2 explores the effect of precursor carboxylates chain length on the aminolytic synthesis of cobalt ferrite, and manganese ferrite nanoparticles. In Chapter 3, a series of CuxMn1-xFe₂O₄, (x ranges from 0.0 to 0.2), nanoparticles were synthesized via the aminolytic method. This series allows for the investigation of the effects of orbital Jahn-Teller distortion as well as orbital angular momentum on the magnetic properties of this ferrite. The quantum couplings of magnetic ions in spinel ferrites govern their magnetic properties and responses. An understanding of the couplings between these metal ions allows for tailoring magnetic properties to obtain the desired response needed for various applications. Chapter 4 investigates the synthesis of MnO and Mn₃O₄ nanoparticles in pure single phase with high monodispersity. To the best of our knowledge, the range of sizes produced for MnO and Mn₃O₄ is the most extensive, and therefore a magnetic study of these systems shows some intriguing size dependent properties. The final part of this chapter investigates the applicability of the aminolytic method for building a MnO shell on a CoFe₂O₄ core. Chapter 5 explores the synthesis of another metal oxide, ZrO₂ in both the cubic and monoclinic phases with no impurities. The use of the aminolytic method here removes the need for dangerous/expensive precursors or equipment and eliminates the need for extensive high temperature heat treatments that destroy monodispersity which is required for most techniques. The creation of a core/shell system between CoFe₂O₄ and ZrO₂ using the aminolytic method was also tested. This core/shell system adds magnetic manipulation which is especially useful for the recovery of zirconia based photocatalyst. Chapter 6 studies the application of the aminolytic method in the synthesis of yttrium iron garnet (YIG) and yttrium iron perovskite (YIP) nanoparticles. Current synthesis techniques used to produce YIG and YIP nanoparticles often requires high temperatures, sensitive to contamination, which could be eliminated through the use of our method

Texto completoResumen
Nanopartículas magnéticas têm sido extensamente estudadas não só pelas inúmeras possibilidades de aplicações nas áreas tecnológica e biomédica, mas também do ponto de vista acadêmico, visando a uma compreensão das alterações de suas características físicas nesta escala de tamanhos. Sintetizar nanopartículas com baixa dispersão de tamanhos e homogeneidade morfológica, estrutural e estequiométrica é de grande importância para o estudo de suas características magnéticas. No presente trabalho, amostras de diferentes ferritas (MeFe2O4, M = Fe, Co e Ni) foram produzidas por um método de síntese química que envolve a decomposição do acetilacetonato de Fe em altas temperaturas na presença de um álcool de cadeia longa e dos surfactantes e estabilizantes oleilamina e ácido oléico. Como o objetivo deste trabalho é estudar a variação das propriedades magnéticas em função do metal M, foi selecionada uma amostra de cada material com diâmetros médios próximos entre si (entre 5,7 e 8,1 nm). A caracterização estrutural foi feita por microscopia eletrônica de transmissão de baixa e alta resolução, além de difração de raios-X. As propriedades magnéticas foram caracterizadas por medidas de susceptibilidade ac em função da freqüência e temperatura, magnetização em função do campo magnético e espectroscopia Mössbauer em campos magnéticos aplicados entre 0 e 12 T. As amostras apresentaram estreita distribuição de tamanhos, ausência de aglomerados, homogeneidade morfológica e altíssima cristalinidade. Das medidas magnéticas foram obtidos, por dois métodos distintos, valores da constante de anisotropia magnética de 2,56,1 para M = Ni, 23,019,3 para M = Fe e 50,042,3 para M = Co (valores em 105 erg/cm3). Estes valores estão acima do esperado para os respectivos materiais bulk, indicando uma contribuição à anisotropia além da magnetocristalina. Os valores de magnetização de saturação a 4,2 K (17,1, 74,0 e 30 emu/g para M = Fe, Co e Ni) estão em geral abaixo do valor esperado para os respectivos materiais massivos. Curvas MH obtidas acima da temperatura de bloqueio mostram o comportamento superparamagnético das partículas. Espectros Mössbauer coletados sob altos campos confirmaram a alta cristalinidade das partículas, excluindo a existência de uma camada superficial de spins desalinhados.Magnetic nanoparticles have been extensively investigated, motivated by their potential technological and biomedical applications as well as in search of a better understanding of the physical properties modifications induced by nanoscale size. Synthesizing nanoparticles with a narrow size dispersion and good morphological, structural and stoichiometric homogeneity is an important requisite for such studies. In this work, nanocrystalline samples of different ferrites MFe2O4 (M = Fe, Co and Ni) have been prepared by a chemical synthesis method involving high-temperature decomposition of Fe acetylacetonate in the presence of a long-chain alcohol and of surfactant and stabilizing agents oleylamin and oleic acid. The main objective of this work being a comparative study of the effect of the M element on the magnetic properties, one sample was selected for each compound, with close mean diameters (5.7-8.1 nm). The structural characterization was carried out by low and high-resolution TEM and x-ray diffraction. Magnetic properties were characterized by frequency and temperature dependent ac susceptibility, magnetization vs. field measurements, and Mössbauer spectroscopy in applied magnetic fields ranging from 0 to 12 T. All samples exhibited narrow size distributions, no particle agglomeration, morphological homogeneity, and an excellent crystallinity. Magnetic anisotropy constants were obtained from magnetic data by two different methods, giving 2.5-6.1 for M = Ni, 23.0-19.3 for M = Fe, and 50.0-42.3 for M = Co (all data in 105 erg/cm3). These results are higher than those expected for the respective bulk materials, indicating an additional contribution to purely magnetocrystalline anisotropy. Saturation magnetization values at 4.2 K (17.1, 74.0 and 30 emu/g por M = Fe, Co and Ni) are generally below the corresponding bulk values. Magnetization curves above the blocking temperature exhibit superparamagnetic behavior. High-field Mössbauer spectra do not show a superficial shell of misaligned spins, thus confirming the high crystallinity of the nanoparticles.

In this work, a sensing strategy for detection and identification of proteins with magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) and carbon quantum dots (CQDs) was developed. In this sense, mixed ferrites of general formula M0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 (M=Mn or Ni) were first investigated. Therefore, the hydro/solvothermal synthesis of these magnetic nanoparticles was performed under different conditions (solvent, reaction time and base concentration). Based on the magnetic properties of the two MNPs investigated, the mixed ferrite of formula Mn0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 (MnZn) synthesized using water showed the greatest potential for sensing. Since among all synthesized MNPs, this sample displayed the highest saturation magnetization value ( M S 50 emu/g), lower crystallite size around 12 nm and superparamagnetic behavior. Once the first part of the doctoral thesis was concluded, the next step was to find a fluorescence probe. In this regard, it was performed the synthesis, as well as the application of branched poliethylenimine-functionalized carbon quantum dots (CQDs.BPEI). These new carbon-based nanoparticles were found to be protein-responsive. Since CQDs.BPEI were able to detect eight different proteins (four metallic and four non-metallic) even using concentrations in the range of 5 – 40 nM. Fluorescence titrations performed at 298 and 310 K displayed the fluorescence quenching through collisional mechanism. Therefore, it was also possible to conclude that the fluorescence quench comes from the amino acid residues on the surface of the proteins. To further check the potential of the CQDs.BPEI, it was developed a “nose” based methodology to identify proteins. Using materials as cheap as Cu2+ and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, the chemical “nose” approach was able to discriminate six different proteins at 40 nM concentration in phosphate buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.4). The identification accuracy of the random unknown set was 90% with all misclassification occurring for albumin proteins (e.g., Bovine Serum Albumin and Human Serum Albumin). The displayed results evidence the great potential of CQDs.BPEI as a protein-responsive probe to detect and identify proteins. Taken together, MnZn and CQDs.BPEI were capable to build up a powerful protein sensing approach. In addition, realizing the great potential of CQDs in the educational field, it was also developed and successfully applied (for more than 70 students from biotechnology, pharmacy, engineers and geology courses) a lab experiment to demonstrate lightrelated quantum phenomena.
Neste trabalho, uma estratégia para detecção e identificação de proteínas incluindo nanopartículas magnéticas (MNPs) e pontos quânticos de carbono (CQDs) foi desenvolvida. Assim, ferritas mistas de fórmula M0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 (M=Mn or Ni) foram inicialmente investigadas. Neste sentido, suas sínteses foram feitas utilizando diferentes condições (solvente, tempo reacional e concentração de base). Logo, baseado nas propriedades magnéticas das MNPs sintetizadas, escolheu-se a Mn0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 (MnZn) sintetizada em água por mostrar grande potencial, uma vez que essa amostra apresentou alto valor de magnetização de saturação ( M S 50 emu/g) em comparação com outras ferritas de composição semelhante, baixo tamanho de cristalito por volta de 12 nm e comportamento superparamagnético. Com a primeira parte do trabalho concluída, a próxima etapa foi encontrar uma sonda fluorescente. Assim, realizou-se a síntese dos CQDs funcionalizados com grupamentos amina (CQDs.BPEI). Quando testada contra 8 diferentes proteínas (4 metálicas e 4 não-metálicas), apresentou variação da emissão para concentrações na faixa de 5 – 40 nM. Titulações fluorescentes também foram realizadas e observou-se que a supressão da fluorescência ocorre via mecanismo colisional a partir de resíduos aminoácidos na superfície da proteína. Para adicionalmente checar o potencial dos CQDs.BPEI, foi desenvolvida abordagem para identificar proteínas utilizando materiais Cu2+ e o ácido etilenodiamino tetraacético. No total, a estratégia desenvolvida foi capaz de identificar corretamente 6 diferentes proteínas a 40 nM. A precisão da identificação encontrada foi 90% para as amostras desconhecidas. Contudo, vale ressaltar que os 10% de engano foram apenas entre BSA e HSA, duas proteínas albumínicas muito similares. Os resultados obtidos nessa parte do trabalho evidenciam o alto potencial de CQDs.BPEI para detecção e identificação de proteínas. Observando os resultados do trabalho como um todo, pode-se afirmar que MnZn e CQDs.BPEI são capazes de compor excelente abordagem para detecção e identificação de proteínas. Adicionalmente, foi explorada a utilidade dos CQDs para o campo educacional. Dessa forma, foi também desenvolvido e aplicado (mais de 70 estudantes de graduação oriundos dos cursos de biotecnologia, farmácia, engenharias e geologia) um experimento de laboratório para demonstrar fenômenos quânticos relacionados com a luz.

Texto completoResumen
Les nanoparticules (NPs) d’oxyde de fer susceptibles de présenter un comportement superparamagnétique ont connu ces dernières années un intérêt considérable en vue de leur application en nanomédecine. Leurs propriétés magnétiques et biocompatibilités permettent notamment leur utilisation à des fins de diagnostic (IRM, imagerie optique et nucléaire…) et aussi de thérapie (hyperthermie, nano vectorisation…). L’objectif de cette thèse a été d’étudier l’influence des paramètres de synthèse sur les propriétés finales des NPs d’oxyde de fer magnétique dopé au zinc. Cette étude avait plus particulièrement pour but l’optimisation des méthodes de synthèse qui sont la coprécipitation et la décomposition thermique. A ce sujet, la caractérisation des NPs par diverses techniques a permis notamment d’étudier les liens entre la taille, la forme, la composition chimique d’une part, et les propriétés magnétiques des NPs d’autre part. Dans un deuxième temps, la fonctionnalisation des NPs qui est une étape indispensable pour assurer leurs biocompatibilités a été réalisée, elle était suivie par des mesures d’hyperthermie magnétiqueThe superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (NPs) are a class of nanomaterials with a high interest in the nanomedicine field. Their magnetic properties and biocompatibility recommend them as potential candidates for diagnostics purposes (MRI, optical or nuclear Imaging ...) and therapy (hyperthermia, nanovectorization...). The aim of this thesis was to study the influence of the synthesis parameters on the final properties of magnetic zinc doped iron oxide nanoparticles. Two synthesis methods were considered, the co-precipitation and the thermal decomposition. The characterization of the obtained nanoparticles by complementary techniques allowed us to propose a consistent relationship between the size, shape and chemical composition on the one hand, and the magnetic properties of the nanoparticles on the other hand. The functionalization of NPs, that is a crucial step for ensuring their biocompatibility and use in magnetic hyperthermia, was also realised and the hyperthermia properties were measured on some typical nanoparticles

Texto completoResumen
This work explores the synthesis and photophysicochemical properties of zinc phthalocyanines when conjugated to cobalt ferrite magnetic nanoparticles. Phthalocyanines with amine and carboxylic acid functional groups were synthesised so as to covalently link them via amide bonds to cobalt ferrite magnetic nanoparticles with carboxylic acid and amine groups, respectively. Spectroscopic and microscopic studies confirmed the formation and purity of the phthalocyanine-cobalt ferrite magnetic nanoparticle conjugates which exhibited enhanced triplet and singlet quantum yields compared to the phthalocyanines alone. The studies showed that the presence of cobalt ferrite nanoparticles significantly lowered fluorescence quantum yields and lifetimes. The conjugates not only showed much higher singlet oxygen quantum yields compared to the phthalocyanines alone but were also attractive because of their magnetic regeneration and hence reusability properties, making them appealing for photocatalytic applications. The photocatalytic ability of some of the phthalocyanines and their conjugates were then tested based on their photooxidation and photoreduction abilities on Methyl Orange and hexavalent chromium, respectively. For catalyst support, some of the zinc phthalocyanines, cobalt ferrite magnetic nanoparticles and their respective conjugates were successfully incorporated into electrospun polystyrene and polyamide-6 fibers. Spectral characteristics of the functionalized electrospun fibers confirmed the incorporation of the photocatalysts and indicated that the phthalocyanines and their respective conjuagates remained intact with their integrity maintained within the polymeric fiber matrices. The photochemical properties of the complexes were equally maintained within the electrospun fibers hence they were applied in the photooxidation of azo dyes using Orange G and Methyl Orange as model organic compounds.

Texto completoResumen
Multifunctional polymer nanocomposites (PNCs) are attractive for the design of tunable RF and microwave components such as flexible electronics, attenuators, and antennas due to cost-effectiveness and durability of polymeric matrices. In this work, three separate PNCs were synthesized. Magnetite (Fe3O4) and cobalt ferrite (CFO) nanoparticles, synthesized by thermal decomposition, were used as PNC fillers. Polymers used in this work were a commercial polymer provided by the Rogers Corporation (RP) and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF). PNCs in this thesis consist of Fe3O4 in RP, CFO in RP, and Fe3O4 in PVDF. Characterization techniques for determining morphology of the nanoparticles, and their resulting PNCs, include x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and magnetometry.
All magnetometry measurements were taken using a Quantum Design Physical Property Measurement System with a superconducting magnet. Temperature and external magnetic field magnetization measurements revealed that all samples exhibit superparamagnetic behavior at room temperature. Blocking temperature, coercivity and reduced remnant magnetization do not vary with concentration. Tunable saturation magnetization, based on nanoparticle loading, was observed across all PNCs, regardless of polymer or nanoparticle choice, indicating that this is an inherent property in all similar PNC materials.
Tunability studies of the magneto-dielectric PNCs were carried out by adding the PNC to cavity and microstrip linear resonator devices, and passing frequencies of 1-6 GHz through them in the presence of transverse external magnetic fields of up to 4.5 kOe, provided by an electromagnet. Microwave characteristics were extracted from scattering parameters of the PNCs. In all cases, losses were reduced, quality factor was increased, and tunability of the resonance frequency was demonstrated. Strong magnetic field dependence was observed across all samples measured in this study.

Nanoparticles based on Mn-ferrite, Mn1−xAxFe2O4, doped with copper, magnesium and cobalt (A = Cu, Mg ou Co) were synthesized by hydrothermal method under pressure, with X varying from 0 to 0, 5. Magnetic fluids stable in physiological conditions were obtained surface-coating the nanoparticle with citric acid. X-ray diffraction confirmed the spinel structure. Energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) confirmed the success of the synthesis of the mixed ferrite, where the element composition agreed with the value expected within an error of 10%. Transmission electron microscopy showed sphericalshaped nanoparticles, while magnetization data at room temperature allowed the analysis of the coercivity field (Hc) and the saturation magnetization (Ms). Ms decreased with the increase of X for the Cu and Mg doped samples, while the opposite effect was observed for Co doped nanoparticles. Hc increased the higher the X value for all the samples. The effect on the Cu and Mg-doped ferrites are explained by the increase in particle size. However, the Co-doped samples, showed a diameter increasing the higher X, but Hc also increased. In this case the Hc behavior is explained by the increase concentration of Co and its effect on the magnetic anisotropy which increases for higher Co content. The magnetic hyperthermia efficiency of the magnetic fluids, for all samples, were investigated in a field amplitude ranging from 50 Oe to 170 Oe and frequencies from 110 kHz up to 990 kHz. The hyperthermia efficiency decreased with X increasing, considering the case of 130Oe and 333 kHz, which indicates that at this experimental condition undoped Mnferrite nanoparticles are better for hyperthermia. In most of the samples it was observed that the efficiency scaled with the square of the field amplitude, which is in accordance with Linear Response Theory (LRT). In addition, the hyperthermia frequency dependence study showed a saturation effect, for some samples, at a frequency higher than 600 kHz. The experimental data as function of frequency were susccessfully curve fitted with the LRT model using 2 free parameters related to the effective relaxation time ( ef ) and the equilibrium susceptibility ( 0). In particular, for theMn-ferrite sample for a field of 130Oe it is found ef = 5, 2 · 10−7s and 0 = 0, 028. The value of ef can be explained using an effective magnetic anisotropy value of 2·105 erg/cm3. The value is one order of magnitude higher than the bulk value, and allowed one to estimate the surface anisotropy contribution to in the order of 0, 04 erg/cm2. On the other hand, a linear chain formation model, for this sample consisted of a trimer (3 nanoparticles), can also explain the increase of the effective anisotropy. Moreover, we found a 0 value lower than the estimated Langevin susceptibility. In order to explain this, a new model, valid in the linear regime, was developed considering the contribution from blocked nanoparticles. Indeed, the analysis of hyperthermia data using this model indicates that the contribution to heat generation spans from 34.7% of the nanoparticles for a field of 110 Oe up to 52.5% at 170 Oe.
Nanopartículas à base de ferrita de Mn, Mn1−xAxFe2O4, dopadas com cobre, magnésio ou cobalto (A = Cu, Mg ou Co) foram sintetizadas pelo método hidrotermal sob pressão, com X variando de 0 até 0, 5. Posteriormente, fluidos magnéticos estáveis em pH fisiológico foram obtidos recobrindo a superfície das nanopartículas com ácidocítrico. A caracterização estrutural por raios-X confirmou a fase cristalina do tipo espinélio. A técnica de espectroscopia de energia dispersiva confirmou o sucesso da síntese de ferrita mista, quanto a sua composição, com um erro de até 10%. Microscopia eletrônica de transmissão revelou formação de nanopartículas esféricas, enquanto medidas de magnetização a temperatura ambiente permitiram uma análise do campo coercitivo (Hc) e da magnetização de saturação (Ms). Ms caiu com aumento de X para amostras dopadas com Cu e Mg, enquanto o oposto foi observado para Co. O Hc cresceu com o aumento de X para todas as amostras. Para as amostras dopadas com Cu e Mg tal efeito é explicado pelo aumento do diâmetro das nanopartículas. No caso das amostras dopadas com Co, o diâmetro caiu com X crescendo, mas Hc aumentou. Neste caso o comportamento do Hc é explicado pela maior contribuição a anisotropia magnética aumentando a proporção de Co na ferrita. A eficiência da hipertermia magnética (EHM) dos fluidos magnéticos, de todas as amostras, foi avaliada numa faixa de amplitude de campo de 50 Oe à 170 Oe para frequências variando entre 110 kHz à 990 kHz. A EHM caiu com X aumentando para H0 = 130 Oe e f = 333 kHz, o que indica, nesta condição experimental, que a ferrita de Mn é a amostra mais eficiente para hipertermia. A maior parte das amostras apresentou um EHM escalando com o quadrado da amplitude de campo magnético, em concordância com o esperado pela Teoria do Regime Linear (TRL). O estudo da EHM em função da frequência (f) revelou que algumas amostras apresentam saturação para f > 600 kHz. Os dados experimentais de hipertermia em função da frequência foram ajustados com sucesso, para todas as amostras, usando apenas 2 parâmetros livres relacionados ao tempo de relaxação efetivo ( ef ) e a susceptibilidade de equilíbrio ( 0). Em particular, para a amostra de ferrita de Mn e H0 = 130 Oe encontramos ef = 5, 2 · 10−7 s e 0 = 0, 028. O valor obtido para ef pode ser explicado para uma anisotropia magnética efetiva com 2 · 105 erg/cm3. Este valor é uma ordem de grandeza maior que o do bulk, e permite estimar uma anisotropia de superfície da ordem de 0, 037 erg/cm2. Por outro lado, a formação de cadeias lineares, contendo 3 partículas, também é capaz de explicar o aumento da anisotropia. O valor encontrado para 0 é menor que aquele estimado para a susceptibilidade de Langevin. Para explicar tal resultado, um novo modelo, válido no regime linear, foi desenvolvido considerando a contribuição de partículas bloqueadas. Neste caso, foi possível estimar, pela análise da EHM em função da frequência, que a fração de partículas contribuindo para a geração de calor sobe de 34, 7% em H0 = 110 Oe para 52, 5% em 170 Oe.

Texto completoResumen
Nos objectifs sont ici de comprendre comment les propriétés magnétiques de nanoparticules (NPs) sont affectées par la diminution de leur taille et par leur composition chimique, et comprendre ce qui régit leur mouvement thermophorétique et l'effet magnéto-calorique. Des ferrofluides composés de NPs de structure cœur-couronne sont synthétisés ici avec un cœur de ferrite de Mn, de Co ou de ferrite mixte Zn-Mn, recouvert d'une couronne de maghémite. Les mesures magnétiques révèlent une composition magnétique mixte conduisant à l'observation d'un exchange bias qui se manifeste par des cycles d'hystérésis décalés à basses températures. Nous comparons ce phénomène dans le cas de NPs à cœur magnétiquement dur (CoFe2O4) et à cœur magnétiquement mou (MnFe2O4). Indépendamment de la nature du cœur, ce champ d'échange augmente jusqu'à un maximum, obtenu quand le champ de refroidissement est de l'ordre de la moitié du champ d'anisotropie. Les propriétés thermophorétiques des dispersions, sondées par diffusion Rayleigh forcée, sont gouvernées par la physico-chimie du colloïde (ligand de surface, contre-ions, interactions entre NPs) indépendamment de la composition chimique et des propriétés magnétiques en champ nul. Le coefficient Soret est ici négatif (NPs thermophiles) et est relié à la compressibilité osmotique donnée par un formalisme de Carnahan-Starling effectif. On modélise la friction en régime dilué par la loi d'Einstein et en régime concentré, à l'approche de la transition vitreuse, par un modèle de Vogel-Fulcher. Les mesures de l’effet magnéto-calorique démontrent une similarité avec les matériaux commerciaux, avec une forte influence de la composition chimique du cœurOur objective is to understand how the magnetic properties of nanoparticles (NPs) can be affected by their size reduction and their chemical composition, and also to determine their role on their thermophoretic motion and on the magneto-caloric effect. For this purpose, aqueous ferrofluids are synthesized with core-shell NPs based on a core of Mn-ferrite, Co-ferrite and mixed Zn-Mn ferrites, coated with a maghemite shell. The magnetic measurements evidence a ferrimagnetic core, covered with disordered frozen spins (SGL), driving an exchange bias phenomenon shifting the hysteresis loops, when the system is cooled under a field Hfc. This exchange bias is measured as a function of Hfc, in samples with NPs having either a hard (CoFe2O4) or a soft (MnFe2O4) magnetic core. Whatever the nature of the magnetic core, the exchange bias field grows up to reach a maximum, always found at Hfc of the order of half of the anisotropy field. The thermophoretic properties of the dispersions, probed by Forced Rayleigh Scattering, are ruled by colloidal physico-chemical features (surface ligand, counter ions, interparticle interactions) whatever the chemical composition and the magnetic properties in zero magnetic field. The Soret coefficient is found here negative (thermophilic NPs) and is related to the osmotic compressibility, modeled by an effective Carnahan-Staring formalism. In the dilute regime, the friction follows an Einstein law, while a Vogel-Fulcher formalism describes the concentrated regime, at the approach of the glass transition. The magneto-caloric measurements demonstrate a similarity with commercial materials. They are strongly influenced by the core composition

Texto completoResumen
Este trabalho descreve, sob um ponto de vista atômico, a investigação das nanopartículas magnéticas (NPMs) de magnetita (Fe3O4) e ferritas do tipo TMFe2O4 (TM = Co, Ni), que são uma classe de materiais estruturados que atualmente tem um grande interesse devido à grande variedade de suas possíveis aplicações tecnológicas e biomédicas, pela Espectroscopia de Correlação Angular γ-γ Perturbada (CAP). Para a produção das NPMs foram utilizadas duas rotas químicas: o método de co-precipitação e o método de decomposição térmica. A co-precipitação apresenta as vantagens de ter temperaturas moderadas e custos relativamente baixos, porém não se consegue ter um controle da distribuição de tamanho das partículas. Por outro lado, a decomposição térmica possibilita uma amostra monodispersa com controle de tamanho e forma, mas este método necessita de reagentes tóxicos, caros e alta temperatura de reação. Para caracterização das amostras foi usada a técnica de Difração de Raio X (DRX) e a morfologia das NPs foi estudada por meio da Microscopia Eletrônica de Transmissão (MET). A partir desta técnica foi possível avaliar a distribuição do tamanho dos grãos, pois algumas características como, elevado valor de magnetização, alta anisotropia e um alto valor de coercividade são propriedades que dependem das nanoestruturas. As propriedades magnéticas foram estudadas localmente a partir da Correlação Angular Perturbada (CAP) que utiliza como sondas núcleos atômicos das medidas, como os núcleos de prova 111In (111Cd), 140La (140Ce) e 181Hf(181Ta). Estas propriedades foram complementadas por medidas de Magnetização.This work describes, from an atomic point of view, the investigation of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) of magnetite (Fe3O4) and ferrites of the type TMFe2O4 (TM = Co, Ni), which are a class of structured materials that currently have a great interest due to the great variety of its possible technological and biomedical applications by Perturbed γ-γ Angular Correlation Spectroscopy (PAC). Two chemical routes were used to produce MNPs: the co-precipitation method and the thermal decomposition method. Co-precipitation has the advantages of having moderate temperatures and relatively low costs, but particle size distribution control is not achieved. On the other hand, the thermal decomposition allows a monodisperse sample with size and shape control, but this method requires toxic reagents, expensive and high reaction temperature. The X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) technique was used to characterize the samples and the morphology of the NPs was studied by Electron Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). From this technique it was possible to evaluate grain size distribution, because some characteristics such as high magnetization value, high anisotropy and a high coercivity value are properties that depend on the nanostructures. The magnetic properties were studied locally from the Perturbed Angular Correlation (CAP), which uses as probe nuclei of the measurements, such as 111In (111Cd), 140La (140Ce) and 181Hf (181Ta). These properties were complemented by Magnetization measurements.

U ovom radu prikazani su rezultati ispitivanja strukturnih i magnetnih osobina čistih cink- ferita, ZnFe2O4 i cink-ferita sa dodatkom indijuma Zn1-xInxFe2O4 i itrijuma, ZnYxFe2-xO4, gde je 0 ≤ x ≤ 0,6. Prahovi na bazi cink-ferita su sintetisani koristeći nisko temperaturnu metodu sinteze iz tečne faze – metodu koprecipitacije. Osnovni cilj ove doktorske disertacije je bio da se utvrdi veza između uslova sinteze, uticaja različitih katjona, strukture i osobina čistih cink-feritnih nanočestica, kao i cink-ferita sa dodatkom indijuma i itrijuma. Radi praćenja uticaja veličine čestica dobijenog praha na strukturu i osobine ovih materijala, sintetisani čist cink-ferit je kalcinisan na različitim temperaturama. Posebno je razmatran i uticaj dodatka različitih jona na distribuciju i preraspodelu katjona u spinelnoj strukturi. Pored toga ispitivan je uticaj tako pripremljenih prahova na njihove magnetne osobine. Rentgenostrukturna i TEM analize potvrdili su da ispitivani uzorci spadaju u klasu nanomaterijala spinelne strukture. Analiza Raman i Mössbauer spektara je ukazala na moguću raspodelu katjona između tetraedarskih i oktaedarskih mesta, te formiranje delimično inverznog spinela. Ispitivanja magnetnih osobina su pokazala da histerezisne petlje ne pokazuju saturaciju u prisustvu jakog magnetnog polja, što je potvrdilo superparamagnetnu i jednodomensku prirodu čestica. Pokazano je da pored uticaja veličine čestica, dodatak različitih katjona (u ovom slučaju itrijum i indijum) ima veliki uticaj na uređenje strukture, a posledično i na magnetno ponašanje ispitivanih nanočestičnih sistema.This thesis presents the results of the investigation of the structural and magnetic properties of nanostructured zinc ferrites, ZnFe2O4 and zinc ferrites supstituted with different amount of indium and yttrium, Zn1-xInxFe2O4 and ZnYxFe2-xO4 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0,6). Powders based on zinc ferrites were synthesised by a low temperature wet-chemical method – coprecipitation. The main purpose of this thesis was to establish the relationship between the synthesis, dopants, structure and properties of zinc ferrite based materials. Nanoparticles of ZnFe2O4 were calcined at different temperatures in order to elucidate the influence of the particle size on the magnetic properties of the obtained nanoparticles. In addition, we have investigated the effect of dopant addition on cation distribution in spinel structure, in order to modify the magnetic properties and to obtain the magnetic ceramics with improved properties compared to the bulk-counterparts. The results of X-ray and TEM analyses confirmed the nanosized nature and spinel type structure of the investigated samples. Raman and Mössbauer spectroscopy studies implied on the possible cation distribution between the tetrahedral and octahedral sites and formation of the partially inversed spinel. The study of the magnetic properties showed that hysteresis loops do not saturate even in the presence of high magnetic fields, which confirmed the superparamagnetic and single domain nature of the samples. These observations imply that, besides the particle size, doping (e.g. yttrium and indium) causes significant structural rearrangements which in turn induce changes in magnetic behavior of the investigated nanoparticulate systems.

In this work, structural, morphological and magnetic properties of cobalt ferrite/zirconium oxide composites prepared via mechanical mixing of the powders were evaluated. Cobalt ferrite powders were obtained by coprecipitation, and some synthesis parameters were optimized, such as the speed of stirring , the concentration of base and metal solutions, in order to obtain stoichiometric ferrites (Fe3+/Co2+ = 2: 1) or near to it. Zirconium oxide powders were synthesized via sol-gel. The composites were analyzed by Atomic Absorption, Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy and Spectroscopy Dispersive Energy, Diffraction of X-rays, Infrared Spectroscopy and Vibranting Sample Magnetometry. It was observed the migration of cations between the ferrite and zirconia structures as a result of high diffusion between phases due to heat treatment. The analysis by Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy and Spectroscopy Dispersive Energy showed the different microstructures of aggregates present in the composites and the average diameter of the grains. The insertion of a magnetic phase on a non-magnetic matrix caused an increase in the saturation magnetization and the remanent magnetization, and decrease in coercivity as the cobalt ferrite content increases.
Neste trabalho, foram avaliadas propriedades estruturais, morfológicas e magnéticas de compósitos de ferrita de cobalto/óxido de zircônio, preparados via mistura mecânica dos pós. Os pós de ferrita de cobalto foram obtidos pelo método da coprecipitação, tendo seus parâmetros de síntese otimizados, tais como velocidade de agitação, concentração das soluções de base e dos metais, a fim de se obter ferritas estequiométricas (Fe3+/Co2+ = 2:1) ou próximas disso. Os pós de óxido de zircônio foram sintetizados via sol-gel. Os compósitos foram analisados por Absorção Atômica, Microscopia Eletrônica de Varredura com Emissão de Campo e Espectroscopia por Energia Dispersiva, Difratometria de Raios X, Espectroscopia na Região do Infravermelho e por Magnetometria de Amostra Vibrante. Foi observada a migração de cátions entre as estruturas da ferrita e da zircônia como consequência da alta difusão entre as fases devido ao tratamento térmico. A análise por Microscopia Eletrônica de Varredura com Emissão de Campo e Espectroscopia por Energia Dispersiva permitiu verificar as diferentes microestruturas dos agregados presentes nos compósitos e o diâmetro médio dos grãos. A inserção de uma fase magnética em uma matriz não magnética provocou aumento na magnetização de saturação e na magnetização remanescente, além de uma diminuição na coercividade à medida que o teor de ferrita de cobalto aumenta.

In this thesis, we describe the preparation of magnetic nanoparticles linked with biomolecules, such as antibody, for specific recognition and easy separation of the target receptors, such as virus, and purified them. As shown in the figure, three parts are connected. The first part is ferrite magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) which were covered with poly (acrylic acid) to prevent oxidation and to increase solubility in water. These acid groups are connected with the ethylene glycol type linkers with good water solubility. At the end of the linker, there is a dithiolpyridine moiety which can form a disulfide bond with the thiol groups on biomolecules. In the mean time of this sulfide exchange, 2-thiolpyridone is released and detected by UV absorption. This method is used to quantify the amount of attacked biomolecules. The biomolecules in my study include H6 avian influenza virus (AI virus) and its antibody. In the first approach, the virus is directly attacked on NPs. Alternatively, the virus-specific antibody is first attacked to the NPs, and then used to detect AI virus. Hemagglutination test is used to detect if there’s virus or not in the test sample.
