Spontaneously Formed Interfacial Metal Silicates and Their Effect on the Magnetism of Superparamagnetic FeCo/SiO<sub>2</sub>Core/Shell Nanoparticles
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The integration of superparamagnetic core/shell nanoparticles into devices and other nanoscale technological applications requires a detailed understanding of how the intimate contact between core and shell nanophases affects the magnetism. We report how, for single-domain FeCo nanoparticles, an FeCo phase unique to the nanoscale with silica shells of increasing thicknesses spontaneously formed interfacial metal silicates between the core and shell (such as Fe2SiO4 and Co2SiO4) and altered the overall magnetism of the nanomaterial significantly. The influence of this previously overlooked phenomenon on magnetic properties is reported. Evidence of these metal silicate interfacial layers was observed by X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) collected over the L3,2 absorption edges of Fe and X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS) collected over the 2p transitions of Fe and Co. Through the correlation of magnetometry and XPS data, the evolution of nanoparticle magnetic anisotropy is shown to increase with the metal silicate.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
