Gliomas are primary brain tumours that are thought to derive from neuroglial stem or
progenitor cells. On the basis of their histological appearance, they have been traditionally …

In the face of the global energy challenge and progressing global climate change,
renewable energy systems and components, such as fuel cells and electrolyzers, which …

In the past two decades, the synthetic development of magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) has
been intensively explored for both fundamental scientific research and technological …

Demand on the practical synthetic approach to the high performance electrocatalyst is
rapidly increasing for fuel cell commercialization. Here we present a synthesis of highly …

This article presents the annealing effect on the structural, elastic, thermodynamic, optical,
magnetic, and electric properties of Ni0. 6Zn0. 4Fe1. 5Al0. 5O4 (NZFAO) nanoparticles …

We report in this article a detailed study on how to stabilize a first-row transition metal (M) in
an intermetallic L10-MPt alloy nanoparticle (NP) structure and how to surround the L10-MPt …

Compared to nanostructured platinum (Pt) catalysts, ordered Pt-based intermetallic
nanoparticles supported on a carbon substrate exhibit much enhanced catalytic …

Fully ordered face-centered tetragonal (fct) FePt nanoparticles (NPs) are synthesized by
thermal annealing of the MgO-coated dumbbell-like FePt-Fe3O4 NPs followed by acid …

In recent years, the continuous development of magnetic nanostructures (MNSs) has
tremendously promoted both fundamental scientific research and technological applications …

Perfect crystals are rare in nature. Real materials often contain crystal defects and chemical
