Title: A Facile Solvothermal Synthesis of Octahedral Fe3O4 Nanoparticles

Journal Article · · Small, 11(22):2649-2653

Anisotropic Fe3O4 octahedrons are obtained via a simple solvothermal synthesis with appropriate sizes for various technological applications. Here, a complete suite of materials characterization methods confirms the magnetite phase for these structures, which exhibit substantial saturation magnetization and intriguing morphologies for a wide range of applications.
