Abstract
A low temperature chemical approach which beats the miscibility barrier of Fe and Mg has been designed to synthesize Fe-Mg2 nanoalloy and tested to result nanoparticles of average 30Â nm size. The nanoalloy is amorphous in nature and characterized by XPRD, AFM, magnetometery, Mössbauer and impedance spectroscopies. The result of magnetic measurement suggests the sample to be superparamagnetic as evidenced by the 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy. The two Mg atoms occupy different positions around iron resulting in two phase system as shown by Mössbauer and impedance spectroscopies.
