For very diluted samples, with Ni concentrations < 4 wt % Ni or very weak dipolar interactions, the data are well described by the Neel-Arrhenius law. Increasing Ni concentration to values up to 12.8 wt % Ni results in changes in the Neel-Arrhenius behavior, the dipolar interactions become important, and need to be considered to describe the magnetic response of the NPs system. We have found no evidence of a spin-glasslike behavior in our Ni NP systems even when dipolar interactions are clearly present.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-12-02T18:17:47.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "75.47.Lx", "75.50.Kj", "71.30.+h" ], "keywords": [ "magnetic susceptibility measurements", "ni nanoparticles", "ni concentration", "ni np systems", "performing ac magnetic susceptibility" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review B", "year": 2009, "month": "Nov", "volume": 80, "number": 18, "pages": 184428 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 7, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009PhRvB..80r4428M" } } }
