Abstract
The classical, thermally driven transition from ferrimagnets to superparamagnets in Fe 3O 4 nanoparticles can be converted into another quantum phase by a transverse microwave magnetic field or by a strong internal anisotropic field. These fields, perpendicular to the Ising axis, can destroy the magnetic long-range order to quantum paramagnets as the fields exceed some critical values. We have exploited the spin resonance spectrometer to determine the dynamic spin susceptibility and the critical exponent γ, which is a power-law dependent spanning of the quantum critical point. Quantum phase transition observed at low temperatures for small magnetite nanoparticles induced by strong surface anisotropic field illustrates the fascinating interplay between thermal and quantum fluctuations in the vicinity of a quantum critical point.
