摘要
Amorphous Cr2O3 was prepared by thermal decomposition of a salt precursor. When sintering temperature was over 300 degrees C the amorphous phase crystallized out nanocrystalline Cr2O3. An impurity phase, ferromagnetic CrO2 (not more than 1 percent), was detected from its magnetic hysteresis loop and TEM studies. Amorphous and nanocrystalline Cr2O3 with different grain sizes were investigated by ESR in the temperature range between 1OOK-400K. The dependence of ESR spectra on temperature shows the character of the antiferromagnetic phase transformation. For nanocrystalline (25-60 nm), the Lande factor g value is larger and the Neel temperature T-n is higher than that of amorphous and polycrystalline, suggesting strengthening of antiferromagnetic coupling.
