Fe3O4 octahedral colloidal crystals

Abstract: We present a facile and controllable method for the large-scale fabrication of highly-ordered octahedral Fe 3 O 4 colloidal "single crystals" without the assistance of a substrate. Oleic acid is used to reduce the solubility of the nano-building blocks in colloidal solution and to induce a "crystallization" process. Our colloidal crystals are of multimicron size and show typical crystallographic characteristics. They have a very robust structure and can serve as a novel ordered magnetic mesoporous material wit… Show more

“…SAXS is used for the determination of microscale as well as nanoscale structure of the nanocomposites in terms of parameters such as averaged particle sizes, shapes, distribution, surface fractal, and surface-to-volume ratio (Meng et al, 2011). I versus q plots obtained by SAXS measurements of pure PVDF and its composite with Fe 3 O 4 (MNP) are shown in Figure 11.7.…”

“…8 Today, few examples of colloidal crystals have been reported in the literature. The magnetic ones are minority, 4,[17][18][19][20][21][22][23] and their magnetic properties have never been studied. In recent years several theories were developed to describe the interaction and geometry of nanoparticle assemblies.…”

“…has been reported. [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20] Particularly, PbS-organic nanoparticles of different shapes (including cubes, octahedra, truncated octahedra, rhombicuboctahedra, etc.) can be easily synthesized on a large scale, and attracted much attention [15,16,21,22] because of a variety of possible applications.…”
