Magnetic nanostructures are of great
interest as platforms for medical applications,
including biomedical imaging and
targeted cancer therapy. However, current
magnetic nanostructures are limited by
magnetic strength and insufficient
biocompatibility. In this research project,
significant progress was made to address
these confines, including 1) increasing
magnetic responsiveness by replacing the...
In this study attention was focused on a
templated fabrication of Au nanotubular
structures that could carry a highly magnetic
entity such as cobalt. In brief, experimentation
was performed to create Co@Au
core-shell nanorods of different lengths. The
preliminary core-shell structures were first
characterized using x-ray diffraction (XRD),
scanning electron...
