Anisotropy is an important and widely present characteristic of materials that provides
desired direction-dependent properties. In particular, the introduction of anisotropy into …

Magnetic nanostructures, such as dots and dot arrays, nanowires, multilayers and
nanojunctions, are reviewed and compared with bulk magnets. The emphasis is on the …

We show a simple, robust, chemical route to the fabrication of ultrahigh-density arrays of
nanopores with high aspect ratios using the equilibrium self-assembled morphology of …

Nanotechnology has spurred efforts to design and produce nanoscale components for
incorporation into devices. Magnetic nanoparticles are an important class of functional …

This paper reviews recent developments in research in nanostructured permanent magnets
(hard magnetic materials) with emphasis on bottom-up approaches to fabrication of hard/soft …

The fabrication methods and physical properties of ordered magnetic nanostructures with
dimensions on the submicron to nanometer scale are reviewed. First, various types of …

Recent work on magnetic properties of transition-metal nanowire arrays produced by electro-
deposition is reviewed. The wires, which are electro-deposited into self-assembled porous …

The magnetic behavior of 100 nm period arrays of Ni nanowires embedded in a highly
ordered alumina pore matrix were characterized by magnetometry and magnetic force …

Highly ordered hexagonal arrays of parallel metallic nanowires (Ni, Bi) with diameters of
about 50 nm and lengths up to 50 μm were synthesized by electrodeposition. Hexagonal …

The paper presents a critical overview on magnetic nanoparticles and microspheres used as
separation media in different fields of chemistry, biochemistry, biology, and environment …
