The structure of 2 nm diameter (340 atoms) Fe nanoparticles embedded in a Cr matrix was determined using X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (EXAFS) and the magnetic properties studied by Superconducting Quantum Interference Device (SQUID) magnetometry. The thin films were produced by the co-deposition of pre-formed gas-phase Fe clusters...

Static and dynamical magnetic properties of Fe nanoparticles (NPs) embedded in non-magnetic (Ag) and antiferromagnetic (Cr) matrices with a volume filling fraction (VFF) of 10% have been investigated. In both Fe@Ag and Fe@Cr nanocomposites, the Fe NPs have a narrow size distribution, with a mean particle diameter around 2 nm. In both samples,...
