Our recent analytic work to fit these curves is discussed. If there is time\, I will discuss current problems with including the role of applied magnet ic field strength in the relaxation times\, and our attempts to overcome t hese.\n\nFunctional Materials: Nanoparticles – Synthesis and Characteriz ation\n\nAngelika Kmita\n\nAGH University of Science and Technology\n\nAca demic Centre for Materials and Nanotechnology\, Krakow\, Poland\n\nIntrodu ction to particle synthesis and characterization will cover:\n\n- Basic me thods for obtaining nanoparticles: including “top-down” and “bottom- up” approach.\n- The advantages and disadvantages of the presented metho ds.\n- Discussion of research results using as an example zinc ferrite nan oparticles synthesized via co-precipitation method or via thermal decompos ition of organometallic compounds.\n- Characterization of nanoparticles wi th particular emphasis on spectroscopic methods.\n\nFunctionalized magneti c nanoparticles for biomedical application\n\nDorota Lachowicz\n\nAGH Univ ersity of Science and Technology\n\nAcademic Centre for Materials and Nano technology\, Krakow\, Poland\n\nIntroduction to functionalized magnetic na noparticles for biomedical application will address the following issues:\ n\n- Magnetic nanoparticles in biomedical applications\n- From design and synthesis to real biomedical applications - problems and challenges\n- Bas ic methods of surface functionalization of magnetic nanoparticles\n- Examp les of systems of functionalized magnetic nanoparticles obtained in our te am - physicochemical properties of the obtained systems\n\nPolymer scaffol ds as templates for synthesis of magnetic nanoparticles\n\nSamuel D. Oberd ick\,\n\nNational Institute of Standards and Technology\, Boulder\, CO\n\n Iron oxide nanoparticles are often synthesized using coprecipitation becau se the technique is low-cost\, straightforward and environmentally friendl y. Unfortunately\, the synthesis offers limited control over the final dia meter of nanoparticles. Size control can be improved by growing the partic les within the pores of a polymer scaffold. The final diameter of particle s can be tuned by adjusting the molecular weight of polymer and can be use d to synthesize particles smaller than 5 nanometers.\n\nRoom: A204\, Bldg: Osborn Building\, 1420 Austin Bluffs Pkwy\, Colorado Springs\, Colorado\, United States\, 80918 LOCATION:Room: A204\, Bldg: Osborn Building\, 1420 Austin Bluffs Pkwy\, Col orado Springs\, Colorado\, United States\, 80918 ORGANIZER:zcelinsk@uccs.edu SEQUENCE:0 SUMMARY:Magnetic Nanoparticle Workshop URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/216261 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p>Magnetic Nanoparticle Workshop on December 13<sup>th</sup>\, 2019 will have four presenters giving 20 minutes talks.
