Resumo
The RE2O3 (RE = rare-earth) oxides present three different structures depending on the RE ionic radii: hexagonal (A-type), monoclinic (B-type)
or cubic (C-type). In the latter, RE ions occupy two non-equivalent cation
sites: asymmetric 24d sites and symmetric 8b sites. Gd2O3 and Er2O3 crystallize
in this structure and have a paramagnetic behavior, although Er2O3
also orders antiferromagnetically below 4 K. Due to the high magnetic moment of Gadolinium ions, Gd3+ chelates have been used as a contrast agent for magnetic resonance imaging[1]. An investigation of the localized
magnetic moment behavior on Gd and Er sites in Gd2O3 and Er2O3
nanoparticles (NPs), within an atomic resolution, under the influence of an
external magnetic field (EMF), is very necessary mainly because the high
neutron absorption cross-section of Gd prevents the use of neutron diffraction[
2]. In this paper, hyperfine interactions, measured by Perturbed Angular
Correlation (PAC) spectroscopy using 111In→111Cd as probe nuclei, were used to investigate the behavior of each RE site in Gd2O3 and Er2O3 NPs with
and without the application of an EMF of 0.5 T. NPs were synthesized by
thermal decomposition and characterized by transmission electron microscopy
and X-ray diffraction. Results show that the contribution of RE atoms
at 24d sites is invariant with temperature whereas the contribution from RE
atoms at 8b sites is so that the hyperfine magnetic field (Bhf) increases in
Er2O3 and decreases in Gd2O3 when temperature decreases indicating an
opposite alignment of Gd magnetic moments at the 8b symmetric sites.
