Selenium-polypyrrole core–shell nanoparticles are fabricated by an in-situ polymerization process and functionalized with transferrin for targeting and imaging of human cervical cancer cells. The shell thickness and chemical composition of the as-synthesized particles can be manipulated by controlling the precursor concentration. The presence of the polymer layer can greatly increase the thermal stability of the selenium nanoparticles. The presence of transferrin molecules on the surface of the core–shell nanoparticles can significantly enhance their cellular uptake. The tranferrin-conjugated core–shell nanoparticles can be potentially used for the targeting and imaging of cancer cells.

The process of nanoparticle Cu@Si formation by the molecular dynamic method using MEAM-potentials was studied. Modeling the droplet behavior demonstrates that a core-shell structure with a copper core and a silicon shell can be formed if the drop is in the liquid state, until the material is finally redistributed. The parameters of thermal stability of Cu@Si composite nanoparticles of different sizes have been determined. It is concluded that as the temperature increases, the diffusion of copper atoms to the surface begins, which leads to a change in the structure and the formation of particles with a core of the Cu@Si type.

ABSTRACTGermanium nanoparticles are grown on HfO2 substrates by hot-wire chemical vapor deposition (HWCVD). The oxidation and thermal stability of these unmodified Ge nanoparticles are determined with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Core-shell nanoparticles were then prepared by growing the Ge cores with HWCVD and selectively growing Si or C shell layers on the Ge cores by conventional CVD. The formation of core-shell nanoparticles was monitored with XPS and low energy ion scattering. Large differences are observed in the thermal stability and oxide formation for unmodified Ge and the different core-shell nanoparticles.
