objective(s): this paper describes coating of magnetite nanoparticles (mnps) with amorphous silica shells.   materials and methods: first, magnetite (fe3o4) nps were synthesized by co-precipitation method and then treated with stabilizer molecule of trisodium citrate to enhance their dispersibility. afterwards, coating with silica was carried out via a sol-gel approach in which the electrostati...

Silicon/zinc oxide (Si/ZnO) core-shell nanowires (NWs) were prepared on a p-type Si(111) substrate using a two-step growth process. First, indium seed-coated Si NWs (In/Si NWs) were synthesized using a plasma-assisted hot-wire chemical vapor deposition technique. This was then followed by the growth of a ZnO nanostructure shell layer using a vapor transport and condensation method. By varying t...

Objective: The purpose of this work was design and performance investigation of a nanocarrier based on magnetic nanofibers containing core-shell nanostructuresfor anticancerdrug delivery of daunorubicin (DAN) by measuring their drug release at different pH values. Methods: Fe3O4 nanoparticles and Fe3O4@SiO2core-shell nanostructures were synthesized through coprecipitation and Stöber methodresp...

Si-Au core-shell nanowires were synthesized with a two-step strategy combining chemical vapor deposition and wet chemistry methods. Si core diameter, Au shell thickness, and wire length were controlled during synthesis. Under a far-field twophoton excitation scanning microscope, spatially modulated twophoton luminescence (TPL) was observed from the core-shell nanowires prepared with several mic...

We have rationally synthesized and optimized catalytic nanoparticles consisting of a gold core, covered by a palladium shell, onto which platinum clusters are deposited (Au@Pd@Pt NPs). The amount of Pt and Pd used is extremely small, yet they show unusually high activity for electrooxidation of formic acid. The optimized structure has only 2 atomic layers of Pd and a half-monolayer equivalent o...

Inverted soft/hard, in contrast to conventional hard/soft, bi-magnetic core/shell nanoparticles of Mn(x)Fe(3-x)O(4)/Fe(x)Mn(3-x)O(4) with two different core sizes (7.5 and 11.5 nm) and fixed shell thickness (∼0.6 nm) have been synthesized. The structural characterization suggests that the particles have an interface with a graded composition. The magnetic characterization confirms the inverted ...

The synthesis of FeTiO3-Ni(Ni80Fe20) core-shell nanostructures by a two-step method (sol-gel and DC electrodeposition) has been demonstrated. XRD analysis confirms the rhombohedral crystal structure of FeTiO3(FTO) with space group R3[combining macron]. Transmission electron microscopy clearly depicts better morphology of nanostructures with shell thicknesses of ∼25 nm. Room temperature magnetic...

Abstract In this study, we have successfully synthesized the Fe 3 O 4 @Bi 2 S core shell hierarchical by a simple and quick sono chemical method. The structural morphological studies of prepared structure show presence single phase with flower shaped like structure. crystalline grain size is obtained as ∼16 nm from Scherrer’s equation.
