Synthesis of Monodisperse FePt Nanoparticles at a Low Temperature

Article Preview

Abstract:

Monodisperse FePt nanoparticles were synthesized by thermal decomposition of Fe(CO)5 and reduction of Pt(acac)2 at low temperature of 160–180 °C by using kerosene as a solvent. The average sizes of the synthesized particles ranged from 2.2 to 4.4 nm. Thermal annealing of the as-prepared FePt particles at 700 °C for 1 h transformed the crystalline structure of the particles from a disordered face-centered cubic to an ordered face-centered tetragonal. This change led to a significant increase in coercivity from 153.37 to 2273.22 Oe and in saturated magnetization from 26.86 to 41.21 emu/g.
