Effects of surface ligands on the charge memory characteristics of CdSe/ZnS nanocrystals in TiO2 thin film
Charge memory characteristics have been systematically studied based on colloidal CdSe/ZnS nanocrystal quantum dots (QDs) embedded in ~50  nm-thick TiO2 film. Ligand-capped QDs showed neglig...

Monodisperse superparamagnetic SnO2-coated iron-oxide nanoparticles (~16.4  nm) have been synthesized via thermal decomposition. The thickness of SnO2 shells can be controlled from 1–5 nm. As-prepared SnO2-coated iron-oxide nanoparticles with high saturation magnetization (18  A m2/kg), are stable up to 600 °C, which can be formed stable ferrofluid. It was suggested that the SnO2 shell acts as a barrier of preventing the growth of gamma-Fe2O3 and consequently, avoiding the gamma-Fe2O3-to-alpha-Fe2O3 phase transition at high temperatures. ©2009 American Institute of Physics
