X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy and Magnetism of Synthetic Greigite and Greigite Magnetosomes in Magnetotactic Bacteria
Abstract
Scanning transmission X-ray microscopy at the Fe 2p (L2,3), O1s, C1s, and S2p edges was used to study greigite magnetosomes and other cellular content of a magnetotactic bacterium known as a multicellular magnetotactic prokaryote (MMP). X-ray absorption spectrum (XAS) and X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) spectra of greigite (Fe3S4) nanoparticles, synthesized via a hydrothermal method, were measured. Although XAS of the synthetic …
