Atomic interdiffusion between FePt and Fe3O4 nanoparticles in annealed FePt-based nanocomposite magnets has been studied by means of structural and magnetic characterizations. The results show that the Fe3Pt phase is formed during the annealing only when the mass ratio x of Fe3O4/FePt is larger than 1/20. When x 1/20, only FePt single phase is formed. It is interesting to find that the coercivi...

L10-ordered FePt nanoparticles (NPs) with ultra-high coercivity were directly prepared from a new metallopolyyne using a one-step pyrolysis method. The chemical ordering, morphology and magnetic properties of the as-synthesized FePt NPs have been studied. Magnetic measurements show the coercivity of these FePt NPs is as high as 3.6 T. Comparison of NPs synthesized under the Ar and Ar/H2 atmosph...

s group has been supported by INSIC and recording industry for years and may be the only university group in US with the demonstrated and integrated capabilities to fabricate and investigate FePt based bit patterned media. We developed seedlayer/underlayer(s) and a low-substrate-temperature (350C) process to grow smooth continuous L10 FePt film on glass substrate with relatively large Hk (~ 80k...

Multifunctional nano-platform for the combination of photo-based therapy and photoacoustic imaging (PAI) for cancer treatment has recently attracted much attention to nanotechnology development. In this study, we developed iron-platinum nanoparticles (FePt NPs) with the polypyrrole (PPy) coating as novel agents for combined photothermal therapy (PTT) and PAI. The obtained PPy-coated FePt NPs (F...

we report the direct soft chemical synthesis and characterization of a family of face centered cubic (fcc) and partially ordered face centered tetragonal (fct) fept nanoparticles (nps) suitable for biomedical applications. both fcc and partially ordered fct-fept nps are synthesized by employing a simple polyol method. by using polyvinyl pyrolidone (pvp) as a stabilizer in various ratios during ...
