Ferrimagnetic Mn2SnO4 nanowires.
Single-crystalline Mn2SnO4 nanowires were first synthesized by chemical vapor deposition; they consist of inverse spinel structure grown with the [111] direction; the nanowires have a ferrimagnetic phase below 46 K (T(C)) with large hysteresis; this ferrimagnetic transition is probably due to the presence of Mn3+ ions at octahedral sites.
