Abstract:
Ultrathin magnetic Fe3O4 nanodiscs with thicknesses of ~20 nm and diameters ranging from 500 to 1000 nm have been obtained on a large scale by a surfactant-assisted solvothermal process. Transmission electron microscopy characterizations show that the nanodiscs grow along the [110] direction. NaOH and PEG-20000 (PEG stands for polyethylene glycol) have key effects on the morphology of the nanodiscs. In addition, the magnetic hysteresis loop of the ultrathin nanodiscs is obtained at room temperature.Document Type: Research article
