Synthesis of monodisperse iron oxide nanocrystals by thermal decomposition of iron carboxylate salts
William W. Yu, Joshua C. Falkner, Cafer T. Yavuz and Vicki L. Colvin
Iron oxide (Fe3O4, magnetite) nanocrystals of 6 to 30 nm with narrow size distributions (
= 5–10%) were prepared by the pyrolysis of iron carboxylate salts.
