The spin structure of antiferromagnetic (AF) MnO nanoparticles (NPs) has been investigated for various NP diameters (5-20nm) using both magnetometry and polarized neutron scattering. Magnetization curves show a peculiar peak at low temperatures (ca. 25K) instead at the Néel temperature of 120K. However, the AF order parameter of MnO shows the expected behavior from polarized neutron scattering studies. In MnO powder, features at both the low temperature (ca. 25K) and the Néel temperature can be found. To understand the observed behavior further magnetometry studies using hysteresis curves, memory effect and susceptibility measurements were employed. We conclude that the magnetic behavior of MnO NPs can be explained by a superposition of superparamagnetic-like thermal fluctuations of the AF Néel vector inside an AF core and a strong magnetic coupling to a FM shell. Moreover, we employed Monte-Carlo simulations of the spin structure to model the observed behavior.
