چکیده

The synthesis and magnetic properties of Ni nanoparticles containing <150 atoms are described. These materials are prepared in an organic solvent using hydrophobic dendrimers as templates, which results in a high degree of size monodispersity. The dendrimer-encapsulated nanoparticles were characterized by UV-vis spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and energy dispersive spectroscopy. Magnetic (SQUID) studies indicate that the particles are ferromagnetic at 5 K with magnetic saturations that vary depending upon the particle size.

Magnetic properties of dendrimer-encapsulated iron nanoparticles containing an average of 55 and 147 atomswzy

The synthesis, characterization and magnetic properties of Fe nanoparticles containing an average of 55 and 147 atoms are described. The nanoparticles are prepared using dendrimer templates, and therefore they are nearly size-monodisperse. In the absence of oxygen and water, the Fe nanoparticles are stable, but they decompose quickly when exposed to air. Magnetic analysis indicates that the 55-...

Electrochemical synthesis and electrocatalytic properties of Au@Pt dendrimer-encapsulated nanoparticles.

Dendrimer-encapsulated Au nanoparticles comprised of an average of 147 atoms were synthesized and immobilized on a glassy carbon electrode. A one-atom-thick shell of Cu was added to the Au core by electrochemical underpotential deposition, and then this shell was replaced with Pt by galvanic exchange. The results indicate that this synthetic approach leads to well-defined core/shell nanoparticl...
