Abstract

An effective approach to gaining an understanding of the mechanism of heat generation for magnetic hyperthermia from nanomagnet suspensions is to perform heating tests over a wide frequency range. We constructed a heating test apparatus by using ferrite field cores with air gaps for low frequencies and solenoids for high frequencies. Magnetic field amplitudes up to 600 Oe (400 Oe) can be generated for frequencies lower than 500 kHz (800 kHz). Heat generation tests were performed for ferromagnetic nano-platelets and Co-doped Fe3O4 nanoparticles over a wide range of frequencies.
