Solution-Phase Synthesis of Single-Crystalline Mn₃O₄ Nanorods with Paramagnetic Properties

Abstract:

Single crystalline Mn₃O₄ nanorods with diameters of 10-200 nm and lengths up to several microns have been synthesized by a simple hydrothermal method at a relatively low temperature. The products have been characterized by microscopic and spectroscopic techniques. From the Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) spectra of the products, hyperfine structure (six absorption peaks of ESR) of Mn²⁺ ion adding the Mn³⁺ ion signal was observed and results confirmed the nanorods showed paramagnetic behaviors.
