The performance characteristics of magnetic nanoparticles towards application, e.g. in medicine, imaging, or as sensors, is directly determined by their magnetization relaxation and total magnetic moment. In the commonly assumed picture,…
Diamond properties down to the quantum-size region are still poorly understood. High-pressure high-temperature (HPHT) synthesis from chloroadamantane molecules allows precise control of nanodiamond size. Thermal stability and optical…
Ni-P coatings produced by electrodeposition have important mechanical, tribological and electrochemical properties. They can also exhibit catalytic activity and beneficial magnetic behaviour. With subsequent thermal treatment, the hardness…
The kinetics of order-disorder transition of FePt nanoparticles during high temperature annealing is theoretically investigated. A model is developed to address the influence of large surface to volume ratio of nanoparticles on both the…
In order to investigate the dependence of conditioning and field-holding on temperature, three pairs of copper electrodes underwent high voltage conditioning with direct current (DC) pulses while kept at a single temperature, unique for…
Assemblies of closely separated gold nanoparticles exhibit a strong collective plasmonic response due to coupling of the plasmon modes of the individual nanostructures. In the context of self-assembly of nanoparticles, closed packed 2D…
The last two decades have witnessed various experiments reporting very unusual magnetic properties of ensembles of gold nanoparticles surrounded by organic ligands, including ferromagnetic, paramagnetic, or (large) diamagnetic responses.…
We report high-temperature (300-1120 K) magnetization data of Fe and Fe3O4 nanoparticles embedded in multi-walled carbon nanotubes. The magnetic impurity concerntations are precisely determined by both high-energy synchrotron x-ray…
We present a detailed molecular-dynamics study of the melting, freezing, and coalescence of gold nanoclusters within the framework of the embedded-atom method. Concerning melting, we find the process to first affect the surface…
The melting of metallic nanoparticles is governed by surface pre-melting, a phenomenon traditionally modeled as the isotropic growth of a uniform liquid shell. Challenging this classical view, we report facet-dependent surface pre-melting…
