Magnetism of Nanoscaled Inorganic Assemblies

Call for Papers

In the modern world, the role of magnetism in nanoscale dimension becomes more and more visualized. This is due to the manifold and wide spreading newly and unexpected properties, such systems envisage for us.

Still the magnetism of single molecules, namely, of such with anisotropic properties in the solid state or of assemblies in thin films on one hand and bulk magnetic properties on the other, respectively, bear a lot of striking and valuable news. But nowadays the field in between, namely, the properties of magnetic systems in the nanoscale range, opens the horizon in a quite new dimension.

Therefore, it is timely to bring together what we currently know about properties of magnetic assemblies in the nanoscale range. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

  • Magnetism of nanoparticles embedded in solid matrizes/polymers or surrounded by polymeric/organic capping layers
  • Magnetism of two-dimensional layers
  • Magnetism of ferrofluidic systems
  • Magnetism involved in catalytical/biocatalytical processes
  • Magnetism of biological systems
  • Magnetism arising from nanoscaled size and morphology control
  • Magnetism for biomedical application
  • Magnetism of single chain magnets or single molecular magnets
