- ItemFacile, fast, and inexpensive synthesis of monodisperse amorphous Nickel-Phosphide nanoparticles of predefined size(Cambridge : Royal Society of Chemistry, 2011) Arzt, Eduard; Moh, Karsten; Cavelius, Christian; Mandel, Karl; Dillon, Frank; Koos, Antal A.; Aslam, Zabeada; Jurkschat, Kerstin; Cullen, Frank; Crossley, Alison; Bishop, Hugh; Grobert, NicoleMonodisperse, size-controlled Ni–P nanoparticles were synthesised in a single step process using triphenyl-phosphane (TPP), oleylamine (OA), and Ni(II)acetyl-acetonate. The nanoparticles were amorphous, contained 30 at% P and their size was controlled between 7–21 nm simply by varying the amount of TPP. They are catalytically active for tailored carbon nanotube growth.
