β¦ Synopsis
The synthesis of the uniform single crystalline magnetic Fe 3 O 4 nanorods in a solution-phase approach in the presence of polyethylene glycol-1000(PEG-1000) is described. This is a convenient solution-phase route to large-scale synthesis of Fe 3 O 4 nanorods with average diameters of ca. 80 nm and lengths of up to 2 mm. The composition of the nanorods is appraised by Xray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Transmission electron microscopy images show that the magnetite particles are homogenous and have the shape of rods. The mechanism of forming Fe 3 O 4 nanorods is also discussed.
