Abstract

Schematic AuCu/FeCo core-shell magnetic nanoparticles: FeCo shell is precisely synthesized on non-magnetic AuCu core to form the core/shell nanostructures. Due to the non-magnetic AuCu core, the FeCo shell exhibits a transition from single domain to magnetic vortex state.

Keywords: AuCu; FeCo; core/shell nanoparticles; nanomagnetism; vortex.
