Iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized by the thermal decomposition of Fe(acac)(3) and Fe(CO)(5). Three different homogeneous procedures were used for the controlled synthesis of Fe3O4, gamma-Fe2O3 and Fe3O4/ gamma-Fe2O3 mixture nanocrystals. A combination of characterization techniques was used in order to distinguish these oxides. The controllable size, the narrow distribution and the rhombic self-assembly of the nanoparticles were revealed by the high-resolution transmission electron microscopy images and the X-ray powder diffraction results. For the quantitative analysis of the samples manganometry was used. Preliminary magnetic measurements indicated the size and composition dependence of saturation magnetization, a superparamagnetic behavior of the samples and some ferromagnetic features.
