✦ Synopsis

Imaging and Structure Determination of the Core and the Shell Regions

A method to produce nanoparticles with core-shell structure, having crystalline Ni 3 Si core and amorphous Si(O) shell is reported. The core-shell nanoparticles are extracted from a two phase metallic alloys by selective phase separation using electrochemical dissolution technique.
