Abstract
⺠We investigated electrical- and magneto-resistance controls in magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticle sinter (MNPS) by the regulation of heat treatment (HT) temperature. ⺠By changing the HT temperature, the coupling state between adjacent magnetite nanoparticles and the crystallinity of MNPS were altered. ⺠Below â¼600 °C, ER and MR were dominated by grain-boundary conduction, while above â¼600 °C they were determined by inter-grain conduction. ⺠The application of a magnetic field to the grain-boundary region, which had relatively random localized spins, caused a large enhancement in MR.
