Room-temperature ferromagnetism is exhibited by nanoparticles of a variety of inorganic
materials although they are intrinsically non-magnetic. Typical of such nanomaterials are the …

The size dependencies of the hydrogen-storage properties in polymer-coated Pd
nanoparticles with diameters of 2.6±0.4 and 7.0±0.9 nm were investigated by a …

This paper reviews the effect of organic and inorganic coatings on magnetic nanoparticles.
The ferromagnetic-like behaviour observed in nanoparticles constituted by materials which …

We report the first direct observation of ferromagnetic spin polarization of Au nanoparticles
with a mean diameter of 1.9 nm using x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD). Owing to …

We report clear evidence of the ferromagnetism of gas-evaporated Pd fine particles with a
clean surface. The clean Pd particle is found to have a magnetic heterostructure: the surface …

The onset of ferromagnetism has been experimentally observed in small Pd particles of
average diameter 2.4 nm. High-resolution studies reveal that a high percentage of the fcc …

Careful control of the size, shape, and composition allows the properties of various noble
metals, particularly palladium and platinum, to be varied, which leads to a wide range of …

Mesoporous silica, which shows well-defined pore systems, tunable pore diameters (2–30
nm), narrow pore size distributions and high surface areas (> 600 m2 g− 1), is frequently …

Studies of the atomic and electronic structures of Pd clusters with 2-23, 55, and 147 atoms
have been carried out using the ultrasoft pseudopotential plane wave method and the spin …

Biologically mediated nanoparticle (NP) synthesis offers a reliable and sustainable
alternative route for metal NP production. Compared with conventional chemical and …
