The effect of size on transitions between defect-induced magnetic phases in ZnO nanowires is investigated in a temperature range from 1.8 K to 300 K using calorimetric measurements of specific heat. The obtained results demonstrated interesting magnetic phenomena in unusual magnetic nanomaterials. At low temperatures, we observed isolated magnetic ions in nanowires of diameters 45-50 nm, and ferromagnetic phases in nanowires of diameters 85-100 nm. However, at higher temperatures, we observed multiple transitions between superparamagnetic phases in the thinner nanowires and multiple transitions between spin-glass phases in the thicker nanowires.
