Nanoparticles of antiferromagnetic LaFeO 3 were prepared by the sol–gel method. An exchange bias effect has been observed and is attributed to the exchange coupling between the ferromagnetic shell and antiferromagnetic core of the particles. The results provide clear evidence of the presence of spontaneous exchange bi…

There have been many publications on the measurement and use of yield stress as a means of determining the ability of a system to suspend. Although in theory it is a useful predictive tool, in reality, it will often be found to give erroneous results, particularly when attempting to draw comparisons between dissimilar…
