Patent ID: 7964013

Claim:
A method for creating FePt—FeRh nanostructures, said method comprising: a. mixing a reduction of a FePt solution, said FePt solution comprising platinum acetylacetonate, 1-adamantanecarboxylic acid, iron pentacarbonyl, and hexadecylamine; b. precipitating the FePt nanoparticles; c. mixing a FeRh solution, said FeRh solution comprising iron acetylacetonate, rhodium acetylacetonate, 1,12-dodecanediol, and phenyl ether; d. adding said FePt nanoparticles to the mixed FeRh solution; f. precipitating the FePt—FeRh nanostructures; and g. isolating said FePt—FeRh nanostructures.
