Abstract

Comparison of the Mössbauer spectra of the as-prepared native iron oxide nanoparticles (IONs) and the citrate-functionalized IONs demonstrates differences in the spectral shapes at room temperature and variations of the 57Fe hyperfine parameters at 80 K. The observed differences are claimed to result from capping the IONs with citrate, thus decreasing the particle-particle interaction while promoting interaction of the outer atomic layers of the IONs with the surface molecular coating.
