Magnetic nanoparticles such as Fe3O4 and γ-Fe2O3 are extensively used in medical application, i.e. drug delivery, MRI, etc. Chemical toxicity and side-effect behaviors always play an important role in such applications. Thus, synthesis of such less-toxic compounds with green technology is privilege....
