Due to their high integrity, facile surface chemistry, excellent stability, and dual properties from the core and shell materials, magnetic-plasmonic core-shell nanoparticles are of great interest across a number of science, engineering and biomedical disciplines. They are promising for applications in a broad range of areas including catalysis, energy conversion, biological separation, medical...

Background: Multifunctional core-shell magnetic nanocomposite particles with tunable characteristics have been paid much attention for biomedical applications in recent years. A rational design and suitable preparation method must be employed to be able to exploit attractive properties of magnetic nanocomposite particles. Objectives: Herein, we report on a simple approach for the synthesis of m...

in this work, a novel hg2+ sensitive fluorescent chemosensor is constructed. the proposednano-chemosensor was prepared through the preparation of 3-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)-7-hydroxy-2h-chromen-2-one functionalized silica nanoparticles which has high magnetization properties (btc-fe3o4@sio2). theûnal product was characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ft-ir), thermal gravimetric...

In the present study, magnetic core-shell manganese ferrite nanoparticles (MCMNP) were synthesized and used for construction of a magnetic core-shell manganese ferrite nanoparticles modified screen-printed carbon electrode (MCSNP-SPCE). Cyclic voltammetry was used to study the electrochemical behavior of chlorpromazine (CPZ) and its determination was conducted by applying square wave voltammetr...

Two sets of core/shell magnetic nanoparticles, CoFe2O4/Fe3O4 and Fe3O4/CoFe2O4, with a fixed diameter of the core (~ 4.1 and ~ 6.3 nm for the former and latter sets, respectively) and thickness of shells up to 2.5 nm were synthesized from metal chlorides in a diethylene glycol solution. The nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and magnetic mea...

The Fe3O4/CeO2 magnetic photocatalyst was prepared by coating directly onto the surface of magnetic Fe3O4 particles. However a direct contact of CeO2 onto the surface of magnetic Fe3O4 particles presented unfavorable heterojunction, thus the SiO2 barrier layer between magnetic Fe3O4 and CeO2 was prepared as a core-shell stucture to reduce the negative effect by combining three steps of the hydr...

We report a novel core-shell-structured ternary nanocube of MnZn ferrite synthesized by controlling the reaction temperature and composition in the absence of conventionally used reducing agents. The highly monodispersed core-shell structure consists of an Fe(3)O(4) core and an MnZn Ferrite shell. The observation of a Moiré pattern indicates that the core and the shell are two highly crystallin...

In the present study, the core-shell magnetic nanostructure of Fe3O4@SiO2@CeO2 was synthesized to investigate its use as an effective photocatalyst for methylene blue removal. The prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The photocatalytic activity for the Fe3O4@SiO2@CeO2 core-shell magneti...

We present a new fabrication method to produce arrays of highly responsive polymer-metal core-shell magnetic microactuators. The core-shell fabrication method decouples the elastic and magnetic structural components such that the actuator response can be optimized by adjusting the core-shell geometry. Our microstructures are 10 μm long, 550 nm in diameter, and electrochemically fabricated in pa...
