Monodisperse FePt nanoparticles were successfully synthesized using the chemical polyol process. Annealing at the high temperatures is required to achieve the hard ferromagnetic behavior with L10 phase. Annealing causes the surfactant surrounding...

Monodispersed 4.1 nm FePt nanoparticles with narrow size distribution were successfully

synthesized by the chemical polyol process with co-reduction of Fe(acac)3 and Pt(acac)2 in

the presence of 1,2 hexadecanediol as a reducing agent...
