A Versatile Interfacial Coassembly Method for Fabrication of Tunable Silica Shells with Radially Aligned Dual Mesopores on Diverse Magnetic Core Nanoparticles
Sebastjan Nemec, Slavko Kralj
Abstract
. These are the highest values reported for magnetically guidable anisotropic nanoparticles. The versatility of the method is shown by transfer of the coating procedure to core particles as diverse as spherical superparamagnetic nanoparticles and their clusters as well as by ferromagnetic 3 nm thick hexaferrite nanoplatelets. This method can serve as a general approach for the fabrication of well-designed mesoporous silica coatings on a wide variety of core nanoparticles.
