| Research Abstract |
FePt nanoparticles composed of crystalline fcc-FePt alloy phase and poorly crystallized Fe- and Pt-oxide phase were synthesized in polyol solution. In X-ray diffraction patterns of the specimens which were heat-treated at temperatures above 573 K in a mixture of 5%H_2 in Ar, diffraction peaks corresponding to superlattice lines of L1_0 type structure were observed. It is highly probable that such disorder-order transformation of FePt nanoparticles is accompanied by compositional homogenization due to the reduction of the poorly crystallized Fe- and Pt-oxide phase. It was also shown that intermediate fine particles precipitated in poyol solution containing Fe and Ni salts were reduced during post-annealing in a mixture of 5%H_2 in Ar. Such technique is useful to synthesis FeNi alloy fine particles over a wide composition range.
