The $Fe_3O_4$-core and Ag-shell ($Fe_3O_4@Ag$ nanoeggs) were prepared through the encapsulation of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane-coated magnetite nanoparticle in nano-Ag shell by a simple chemically controlled procedure. The $Fe_3O_4@Ag$ nanoeggs were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, UV-vis spectrum and superconducting quantum interference device magnetometer, respectively. A detailed analysis is provided of how the hydrolysis and condensation of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and the pH value are vital in fabricating the $Fe_3O_4@Ag$ nanoeggs. The prepared $Fe_3O_4@Ag$ nanoeggs possessed uniform size, improved monodispersity, stability against aggregation and high magnetization, which were utilized for the detection of latent fingerprints deposited onto different surfaces. The experimental results showed that the latent fingerprints developed with the $Fe_3O_4@Ag$ nanoeggs powders exhibited excellent ridge details with minimal background staining.

Tin and Tinoxide nanoparticles were prepared by arc-discharge nanopowder process. The negative electrode were fabricated using Tin and Tinoxide nanopower. The microstructure and electrochemistry properties were investigated and compared between Tin and Tinoxide. The oxidation film has microstructure of core/shell type and the shell which was attached around Tin nanoparticle consisted of amorphous $SnO_2$. The shape of Tinoxide nanoparticles was formed with irregular shape in comparison with Tin particle. Initial discharge capcity of Tinoxide electrode possesed about 1000mAh/g, which is about 320mAh/g higher than Tin electrode. Irreversible capacity of Tin electrode is much higher than Tinoxide. The cycle performance of Tinoxide electrode was indicated that is batter than Tin. The Tin negative electrode lost most of capacity after 4 cycle but Tinoxide electrode still retained the capacity. The Tinoxide does show some promise as Li-ion battery anode due to their large reversible capacity at low potentials.

We have successfully synthesized $AgInS_2$ core and $AgInS_2$/ZnS core/shell nanoparticles by the sonochemical method. The ultrasonic based $AgInS_2$ and $AgInS_2$/ZnS nanoparticle synthesis can be utilized as a simple and rapid method. The $AgInS_2$/ZnS nanoparticles show the higher fluorescence intensity and quantum yield than $AgInS_2$ nanoparticles. Fluorescence wavelength of $AgInS_2$/ZnS shows blue shift from 635 nm to 610 nm against $AgInS_2$ because of reducing the defect sites and increasing spatial confinements. For the fluorescence lifetime, $AgInS_2$/ZnS (124.8 ns) has longer lifetime than $AgInS_2$ (54.8 ns).

We have developed magnetically controllable gold nanoparticles by synthesizing superparamagnetic $Fe_3O_4$ core/gold shell nanoparticles. The core/shell particles have the capability of forming gold 1D chains in the presence of an external magnetic field. Here we demonstrate dynamic and reversible self-assembly of the gold 1D chain structures in an aqueous solution without any templates or physical or chemical attachment. The spatial configuration of gold chains can be arbitrarily manipulated by controlling the direction of a magnetic field. This technique can provide arbitrary manipulation of gold 1D chains for fabrication purpose. To demonstrate this capability, we present a technique for immobilization of the gold particle chains on a glass substrate.

Currently, numerous studies are being conducted on metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) gas sensors for hydrogen detection, using Palladium (Pd) and Pd-based alloy nanoparticles (NPs) owing to their hydrogen absorption ability. Furthermore, several studies have reported that Pd-Iridium (Ir) alloys possess high hydrogen absorption capabilities in their bulk state. However, Ir growth is limited to above 2 nm and it does not mix extensively with other metals. Furthermore, as the hydrogen absorption capacity decreases with the reduction in particle size, it is necessary to synthesize nanoparticles of an appropriate size. Therefore, the synthesis of Pd-Ir alloy NPs larger than 10 nm is challenging. In this study, we report the synthesis of Pd-Ir NPs with an average diameter of 19 nm using a hydrothermal technique for the first time and fabricated Pd-Ir alloy NPs through calcination at 500℃ in Ar and air. To confirm alloy formation and oxidation behavior, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were performed. In addition, we synthesized Pd-Ir@CeO₂ core-shell nanoparticles (CSNPs) as hydrogen gas-sensing materials. The Pd-Ir core was partially oxidized during heat treatment at 500℃ in air, and Pd-Ir@CeO₂ CSNPs were finally changed into Pd-Ir(alloy)/PdO-IrO₂@CeO₂ CSNPs, which exhibited higher sensitivity and selectivity toward H₂ gas compared to totally oxidized PdO-IrO₂@CeO₂ CSNPs and pure CeO₂ NPs. The enhanced gas-sensing performance was attributed to the hydrogen absorption effect of the Pd-Ir(alloy) NPs.

We have prepared crystalline Ag nanoparticles with an average size of 4 nm in diameter by using an inductively coupled plasma reactor equipped with the liquid nitrogen cooling system. Our magnetic data show that the nano-sized effect of Ag nanoparticles on the magnetic properties is ferromagnetic, instead of a diamagnetic component of the Ag bulk and a superparamagnetic component of magnetic nanoparticles. We have also studied the magnetic properties of Ag-Cu nanocomposites with an opposite concentration profile between surface and core. These comparisons indicate that the ferromagnetic component strongly depends on the surface of Ag nanoparticles, while the paramagnetic component is strongly affected by the outer oxide layer, with the background of a diamagnetic component from the core of Ag.

Here, we introduce various type of inorganic nanostructure synthesized with functional nanoparticles and silica. From two decades ago, functional inorganic nanoparticles have been synthesized and highlighted, now we moved to next level of wet-chemical synthesis. By integrating functional nanoparticles with silica, we were able to synthesize multi-functional nanostructure, which expand the applications of nanoparticles to catalyst, drug carrier, sensors. In this context, silica has been spotlighted due to its versatility. Silica has highly biocompatible, relatively transparent and stable under harsh conditions. Thus it can be used as good supporter to synthesize complex multi-functional nanostructure when mixed with other functional nanoparticles. A various shape of complex nanostructures have been synthesized including core-shell type, yolk-shell type and janus type etc. In this paper, we have described the purposes of synthesizing silica noncomplex and various case studies for biomedical applications and self-assembly.

The amphiphilic block copolymer (PEtOz-PCL) of poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) (PEtOz) and poly(${\varepsilon}$-caprolactone) (PCL) formed spherical micellar structures with an average diameter of 26 nm in aqueous phase. Au and Pd nanoparticles with an average diameter of $2{\sim}3nm$ were prepared by using the PEtOz-PCL micelle consisting of a PEtOz shell and PCL core. The Au nanoparticles of PEtOz-PCL micelles in aqueous phase could be transferred into organic phase by using n-dodecanethiol. The use of the Pd-NP/PEtOz-PCL micelle as a nanoreactor for Suzuki cross-coupling reaction was investigated.
