Ferromagnetism as a universal feature of nanoparticles of the otherwise nonmagnetic oxides

Room-temperature ferromagnetism has been observed in nanoparticles $(7--30\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{nm}\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}\mathrm{diam})$ of nonmagnetic oxides such as ${\mathrm{CeO}}_{2}$, ${\mathrm{Al}}_{2}{\mathrm{O}}_{3}$, $\mathrm{ZnO}$, ${\mathrm{In}}_{2}{\mathrm{O}}_{3}$, and...
