ABSTRACT: Exchange-coupled fct-FePd/alpha-Fe nanocomposite magnets were fabricated by converting anisotropically phase-segregated Pd/gamma-Fe2O3 nanoparticles via the interfacial atom diffusion. The magnetically hard fct-FePd phases formed by the interdiffusion between alpha-Fe and fcc-Pd phases nearly preserve their sizes at the nanometer scale because they are surrounded by the alpha-Fe matrix. The VSM measurements reveal that the exchange coupling between the soft and hard phases has been realized.

ABSTRACT: One-pot synthesis of FePt nanoparticles larger than 5 nm with controlled composition has been developed by the polyol reduction of platinum acetylacetonate and iron acetylacetonate in excess ligands. The obtained large FePt nanoparticles (6.1 +/- 0.6 nm Fe36Pt64, 5.8 +/- 0.7 nm Fe44Pt56, and 5.1 +/- 0.7 nm Fe49Pt51 nanoparticles) were thermally more stable than the small ones and were hard to coalesce in the in-plane direction for their 2D superlattice.

ABSTRACT: The anisotropically phase-segregated CoPd sulfide nanoparticles, named "CoPd nanoacorns", were spontaneously generated by reducing the corresponding metal precursors with 1,2-hexadecanediol in the presence of various alkanethiols. The CoPd nanoacorn consisting of crystalline Co9S8 and amorphous PdSx phases with the Co9S8 (001) plane at their interface was found to spontaneously form through the anisotropic growth of the Co9S8 phase after the generation of PdSx nanoparticles.
