  • Descrição: This work illustrates the effect of core-shell nanoparticle geometry on the enhancement of the proton relaxivity value in a nuclear magnetic resonance experiment. Chemically synthesized CoFe 2 O 4 -MnFe 2 O 4 core-shell nanoparticles were chosen as a candidate material. A two step methodology was used to synthesize the core-shell nanoparticles. In the first step, CoFe 2 O 4 seed nanoparticles were synthesized and in the second step a MnFe 2 O 4 phase was grown over seed CoFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles to form the core-shell geometry. Characterization of the as-synthesized nanoparticles by diffraction methods, electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirmed the formation of uniform core-shell nanoparticles. Magnetic measurement revealed the superparamagnetic nature of the as-synthesized core-shell nanoparticles. The transverse proton relaxivity values obtained by the nuclear magnetic resonance experiment conducted at room temperature using a field of 9.4 T in the presence of single phase CoFe 2 O 4 , MnFe 2 O 4 and CoFe 2 O 4 -MnFe 2 O 4 core-shell nanoparticles were 60.9 mM −1 s −1 , 83.2 mM −1 s −1 and 194.8 mM −1 s −1 respectively. This result clearly illustrated that a greater magnetic inhomogeneity induced in the medium surrounding the core-shell nanoparticles containing two different magnetic phases yields the highest value for the transverse proton relaxivity. This work illustrates the effect of core-shell nanoparticle geometry on the enhancement of the proton relaxivity value in a nuclear magnetic resonance experiment.
