The NicoreAgshell, CocoreAgshell, and CocoreAushell nanoparticles were prepared by a simple transmetallation reaction between the Co and Ni nanoparticles and the Ag+ or AuCl−4 ions. It is revealed that the FMR line width decreases upon Ag shell formation whereas it increases upon core–shell composite formation with Au. Several probable explanations such as the differences in size distributions before and after the reaction or the changes occurring in shape anisotropy of the particles due to the shell formation or the different extents of electronic interaction between the core and shell materials have been offered for this observation.</p>10aFmr Study; Line Width Comparison; Magnetic Core-Noble Metal Shell Nanoparticles1 aBala, Tanushree1 aEnoki, Toshiaki1 aPrasad, Bhagavatula L.

It is evidenced that although the magnitude of the peak entropy change and position of the peak can be tuned by changing the composition and nature (metallic or organic) of the shell and surfactant layers, the characteristics of the spin freezing transition are not altered. The field dependence of the refrigerant capacity also confirms this finding. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics.

Reaction of ammonium carbonate with the respective cations electrostatically entrapped in the foam results in the formation of minerals, possibly in the Plateau border and Plateau junction regions of the foam. The unusual morphology of the crystals obtained from foam based synthetic method as compared to the crystals prepared in aqueous solution shows the utility of the template for the growth of crystals with an unusual morphology due to constrained environment. The materials are well characterized using TEM, SEM, EDAX and FTIR techniques. The large interfacial area of the liquid lamellae in the foam provides a striking possibility for the large-scale synthesis for not only minerals but also other nanoscale materials.</p>1 aBala, Tanushree1 aSanyal, Ambarish1 aPant, Jayashree1 aPrasad, Bhagavatula L.

Such variations in size and size distributions hugely influence the self-assembled processes in nanoparticles, and result in superlattice structures that are controlled by subtle interplay between ligand orientational entropy and their interdigitation and the van der Waals attraction between the metal cores.</p>1 aSahu, Puspanjali1 aPrasad, Bhagavatula L.
