Abstract
Effect of annealing on structural and magnetic properties of non-equatomic chemically synthesized FePt nanoparticles with an average size of 3.2 nm diameter is reported. Annealing of the particles at 700°C resulted in the increase of particles size and the enhancement of total magnetization and coercivity, the latter could be attributed to a transformation from disordered to ordered crystallographic phase. Although the system is far from optimum "equatomic" stoichiometry, coercivity field of 1.1 kOe was obtained at 10 K together with remanence ratio of 0.55. X-ray magnetic circular dichroism spectra recorded at the Pt L 2,3 edges on annealed samples revealed the enhancement of magnetic moment induced on Pt atom.
