From nanocrystals to nanorods: New iron oxide-silica nanocomposites from metallorganic precursors
Sol-gel one-step processing of the Fe(II) alkoxide [Fe(OBu t)2(THF)]2 and tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) at various ratios afforded new silica-iron oxide magnetic nanocomposite materials, ranging in shape from nanocrystals to nanorods depending on the percentage of TEOS added. The nanocomposites ha...
