Abstract
A new synthetic method for the formation of uniform $\alpha-Fe_2O_3$ nanoparticles was reported and their magnetic properties were investigated. The sonochemical synthesis and the subsequent take-off technique resulted in spherical shaped $\alpha-Fe_2O_3$ nanoparticles with an average diameter of 60 nm. The temperature- and applied magnetic field-dependent magnetization of the $\alpha-Fe_2O_3$ nanoparticles was explained by the sum of two contributions, i.e., the Morin transition and superparamagnetism, because the critical size for superparamagnetism was within the size variation of the nanoparticles.
