Abstract

Superparamagnetic iron oxide particles embedded in silica are studied for application in hyperthermia. The temperature increase is studied when submitting the samples to a weak alternating magnetic field. The influence of the iron oxide size distribution, saturation magnetization, out of phase susceptibility and anisotropy constant is discussed. A theoretical calculation of power loss is carried out and agrees with experimental data.
