Fundamental research on magnetic nanostructures is an important part of todays science in the field of information technology. Highly ordered 3 dimensional structures of nanoparticles are model systems to study the magnetic inter-particle interactions.
In this context, monodisperse Fe2O3 nanoparticles have been deposited on a substrate to form highly ordered superstructures (mesocrystals) using a drop casting method. In a first step, structural characterization was carried out by SEM, AFM, TEM and GISAXS. Due to the arbitrary orientation of the mesocrystals on the substrate the grazing incidence scattering experiments cannot yield the full supercrystal structure information, only a powder average. In this study a single mesocrystal was detached from the sample using focused ion beam preparation techniques, and was investigated with small angle diffraction for its structure.
