Room Temperature Magnetism in Layered Double Hydroxides due to Magnetic Nanoparticles
Some
recent reports claiming room temperature spontaneous magnetization
in layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have been published; however,
the reported materials cause serious concern as to whether this cooperative
magnetic behavior comes from extrinsic sources, such as spinel iron
oxide nanoparticles. The syntheses of crystalline Fe<sup>3+</sup>-based
LDHs with and without impurities have been developed, highlighting
the care that must be taken during the synthetic process in order
to avoid misidentification of magnetic LDHs
