Abstract

A great deal of attention has been paid to the use of magnetite nanoparticles as heating elements in the research of magnetic fluid hyperthermia. However, these particles have a relatively low magnetization and as a result, have low heating efficiency as well as difficulties in detection applications. To maximize heating efficiency we propose and show the use of high-moment Fe(Co)–Au core-shell nanoparticles. Using a physical vapor nanoparticle-deposition technique the high-moment nanoparticles were synthesized. The water-soluble particles were placed in an AC magnetic field of variable magnetic field frequencies. The temperature rise was measured and compared to theory.
