We have investigated the spin and orbital magnetic moments of Fe in FePt nanoparticles in the1-ordered phase coated withby x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) measurements at the Feabsorption edges. Using XMCD sum rules, we evaluated the ratio of the orbital magnetic moment () to the effective spin magnetic moment () of Fe to be. Thisvalue is comparable to the value (0.09) obtained for FePt nanoparticles prepared by gas phase condensation, and is larger than the values (0.05) obtained for FePt thin films, indicating a high degree of1order. The hysteretic behavior of the FePt component of the magnetization was measured by XMCD. The magnetic coercivity () was found to be as large as 1.8 T at room temperature,3 times larger than the thin film value and50 times larger than that of the gas phase condensed nanoparticles. The hysteresis curve is well explained by the Stoner-Wohlfarth model for noninteracting single-domain nanoparticles with thedistributed from 1 to 5 T.
