Catalytic properties of Fe Pd ferromagnetic nanowires at liquid/liquid interfaces

Recent Advances in Nanoporous Anodic Alumina: Principles, Engineering, and Applications

“…Depending on the membrane geometry, different magnetic anisotropy was obtained. The shape of NAA is also favorable for the production on nano brushes in flat and spatial (3D) configurations [ 10 , 225 ] as well as liberated nanowires [ 226 , 227 ]. However, while reports demonstrate many different combinations of materials and shape, a significant fraction remains on the concept stage.…”

Liquid–liquid interfaces: a unique and advantageous environment to prepare and process thin films of complex materials

“…5,6,8,9,11,18,19 Deeper discussions on these subjects are beyond the scope of this review, and can be found on the cited literature. [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] Also, there is recent growing interest in the preparation, stabilization, characterization and application of solids at L/L interfaces, but without any concern for removal to be applied out of the L/L interface: Rao and Kalyanikutty for example reported the stabilization of inorganic nanoparticles (metals, semiconductors and metal oxides) at L/L interfaces and proposed a model for the film growth; 3 Thomas et al also reported the preparation of thin films of similar materials at water/oil interfaces; 4 the application of gold nano-films at L/L interfaces as platforms for redox electrocatalysis, nanoplasmonic sensors and electrovariable optics has been recently reviewed by Scanlon et al; 8 the self-assembly of Janus nanoparticles with different geometries at L/L interfaces was reported by Ruhland et al; 20 the catalytic performance of metal and oxide nanoparticles at L/L interfaces has been demonstrated; 21,22 and Dryfe's group has been publishing very elegant results in recent years on chemical functionalization and electrochemistry involving solids at different L/L interfaces, mainly immiscible electrolyte solutions. [23][24][25][26][27] However, it is important to clarify that this review is focused on the thin film itself and its application in thin film technology, i.e.…”

Structural, Wetting and Magnetic Properties of Sputtered Fe70Pd30 Thin Film with Nanostructured Surface Induced by Dealloying Process

“…Recently, FePd alloy have also attracted a growing interest in the scientific community because of their possibility to combine the properties of magnetic (Fe) and noble (Pd) metal elements in a multifunctional alloy [ 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 ]. The chemical composition of the FePd binary alloy system strongly influences its structure and magnetic properties allowing the use in a variety of applications [ 21 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 ].…”
