CORE-SHELL METALLIC NANOPARTICLES, METHODS OF PRODUCTION THEREOF, AND INK COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING SAME

摘要

Provided is a composition including a plurality of multi-metallic nanoparticles each consisting essentially of a core including at least one first metal (Me1) and a continuous shell including atoms of at least one second metal (Me2). Optionally, the continuous shell of Me2 atoms protects the Me1 atoms from oxidation at all temperatures less than 150° C.
