Magnetic hyperthermia is an adjuvant therapy for cancer where injected magnetic nanoparticles are used to transfer energy from the time-dependent applied field into surrounding medium. Its main importance be able increase temperature of human body locally. This localization can further increased by using a combination static and alternating external fields. For example, if inhomogeneous oscilla...

Background: Nanomaterials are extensively used from household applications to industrial applications. Nanomaterials are the substances that are synthesized in the size ranging from 1-100 nm which exhibits excellent physical and chemical properties compared to their bulk forms. Iron oxide nanoparticles (magnetic) have unique properties that make them applicable in drug delivery applications. Ho...

Magnetic silica nanoparticle functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MS-MWNTs) were prepared, characterized and used for the convenient, rapid and efficient separation of trace aromatic compounds.

Recycling of homogeneous catalysts could be achieved by using magnetic nanoparticles and solid-phase beads, but nanoparticle-supported catalysis proceeded much faster than its counterpart on resins.

The present study focuses on investigating the magnetic properties and the critical particle size for developing sizable spontaneous magnetic moment of bare Au nanoparticles. Seven sets of bare Au nanoparticle assemblies, with diameters from 3.5 to 17.5 nm, were fabricated with the gas condensation method. Line profiles of the X-ray diffraction peaks were used to determine the mean particle dia...

Nanocomposite materials provide the possibility for multifunctional properties in contrast with their more-limited single-component counterparts. Here, we report the synthesis and characterization of the first all-inorganic core/shell hybrid magnetic-optical nanoparticle, cobalt/cadmium selenide. The core/shell nanocrystals are prepared in a facile one-pot reaction, and their microstructure is ...
