Core/shell magnetism in NiO nanoparticles

Optical Limiting Characteristics of Core-Shell Nanoparticles

TiO2 nanoparticles were synthesized by hydrothermal method at 180 ̊C from TiOSO4 aqueous solution with1m/l concentration. The obtained products were coated with silica by means of a seeded polymerization technique for a coating time of 1440 minutes to obtain well defined TiO2@SiO2 core-shell structure. The uncoated and coated nanoparticles were characterized by using X-Ray diffraction technique ...

Multicolor Core/Shell-Structured Upconversion Fluorescent Nanoparticles

Near-infrared (NIR)-to-Visible upconversion fluorescent nanoparticles emit visible light upon NIR-light excitation, and are well suited for bioimaging, compared to the commonly used downconversionfluorescentmaterials.Thesenanoparticleshave advantages such as minimum photodamage to living organisms, weak background fluorescence, high detection sensitivity, and high light-penetration depth in tis...

ZrO2 bubbles from core–shell nanoparticles{

Selective removal of metal cores from core–shell Ag@ZrO2 (ZrO2 coated Ag) and Au@ZrO2 (ZrO2 coated Au) nanoparticles result in stable and freely suspendable oxide nanobubbles of varying dimensions, both in thickness and in diameter. The metal core is removed by a newly found reaction in which halocarbons, generally chlorides, oxidise the metal core and leach out the metal ions. Reduction in the...

Modelling exchange bias in core/shell nanoparticles.

We present an atomistic model of a single nanoparticle with core/shell structure that takes into account its lattice structure and spherical geometry, and in which the values of microscopic parameters such as anisotropy and exchange constants can be tuned in the core, shell and interfacial regions. By means of Monte Carlo simulations of the hysteresis loops based on this model, we have determin...
