contents Magnetic core/shell nanoparticles are promising candidates for magnetic hyperthermia due to its high AC magnetic heat induction (specific loss power (SLP)). It's widely accepted that magnetic exchange-coupling between core and shell plays the crucial role in enhancing SLP of magnetic core/shell nanoparticles. However, the physical contribution of exchange coupling to SLP has not been systematically investigated, and the underlying mechanism remains unclear. In this study, magnetic hard/soft CoFe$_2$O$_4$/MnFe$_2$O$_4 and inverted soft/hard MnFe$_2$O$_4$/CoFe$_2$O$_4$ core/shell nanoparticles were synthesized, systematically varying the number of shell layers, to investigate the physical contribution of internal bias coupling at the core/shell interface to AC heat induction (SLP). Our results show that a unique magnetic property, double-hysteresis loop, was present and clearly observed, which was never reported in previous core/shell research literature. According to the experimentally and theoretically analyzed results, the double-hysteresis behavior in core/shell nanoparticles was caused by the difference in magnetic anisotropy between core and shell materials, separated by a non-magnetic interface. The enhanced SLP and maximum temperature rise (TAC,max) of core/shell nanoparticles are attributed to the optimized magnetic anisotropy, AC magnetic softness and double hysteresis behavior due to the internal bias coupling. These results demonstrate that the rational design capabilities to separately control the magnetic anisotropy, AC/DC magnetic properties by varying the volume ration between core and shell and by switching hard or soft phase materials between core and shell are effective modalities to enhance the AC heat induction of core/shell nanoparticles for magnetic nanoparticle hyperthermia.
