MAGNETIC NANOMATERIALS AND SYNTHESIS METHOD

摘要

A magnetic nanoparticle 22, a magnetic nanomaterial 30, assembly 30, and a method for synthsising a magnetic nanoparticle, relating to thermodynamically stable and air stable ferromagnetic nanoparticles of adjustable aspect ratio made upon decomposition of organometallic precursors in solution in the presence of a reaction gas and a mixture of organic ligands. The magnetic nanomaterial comprises magnetic nanoparticles of homogeneous size, shape, and magnetic orientation that comprises a magnetic core 24, 34 ferromagnetic at room temerature and/or operating temperatures, and a non-magnetic matrix 26, 36 encapsulating the magnetic core. This magenetic nanomaterial could be used in high frequency integrated circuit applications, such as used in wireless portable electronic devices, to enchance magnetic field confienment and improve passive component performance at MHz and GHz frequency in a variety of passive and active devices, such as transformers, on-chip signal isolation, inductors, and the like.
