Three samples of NP in a size range of 40-120 nm were syn-thesized by thermal decomposition and subsequent calcination processes. The analysis of the local X-ray absorption spectra of tens of individual NP indicates a strong dependence of their Ni oxidation state with the cal-cination protocol of each sample. Additional electron-microscopy-based images and spectra of a few individual NP as well as other standard macroscopic data are in very good agreement with these experimental findings. These results showcase the relevance of combining standard and advanced single-particle studies to gain further insight into the understanding and control of electronic and magnetic phenomena at the nanoscale. 2025-07-09T12:14:59Z 2025-07-09T12:14:59Z 2024-10-01 2025-07-09T12:14:59Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion Versió postprint del document publicat a: https://doi.org/10.1063/10.0028630 Low Temperature Physics, 2024, vol. 50, num.10, p. 852-861 https://doi.org/10.1063/10.0028630 (c) AIP Publishing, 2024 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess AIP Publishing Articles publicats en revistes (Química Inorgànica i Orgànica)
