By molecular dynamics simulation it is shown that interdiffusion in the initial f.c.c. Ag-core ( 28 at. %) – Ni-shell ( 72 at. %) and Ni-core ( 34 at. %) – Pd-shell ( 66 at. %) nanoparticles can lead to surface–sandwich segregation. It is observed that there is a separation of the initial Ag-Ni core-shell structure into Ag-core – Ni-intermediate shell – Ag-disperse surface monolayer. The initial crystal Ni-Pd core-shell structure transforms to the core of a non-crystalline Pd-rich solid solution with quite strongly developed icosahedral short-range order, which is covered by a surface–sandwich shell, where Ni atoms are located in the centres of interpenetrating icosahedra of a subsurface Kagomé net layer while the Pd atoms occupy the vertices of the icosahedra and cover this Ni layer from inside and outside. We demonstrate that under certain conditions a surface–sandwich segregation phenomenon at the nanoscale can be observed in systems with completely different phase diagrams in the bulk states: in systems displaying the extremely low mutual solubility as in the Ag-Ni system, or in systems exhibiting a continuous mutual solid solubility like the Pd-Ni system.

Core Nanoparticles

Core-shell nanoparticle has created great interest among researchers due to their various unique properties. The new properties created are combination of both the core and the shell. In this work, pre-prepared Nickel (Ni) nanoparticles were coated with Gold (Au) to produce core-shell structure. Formation mechanism of the core-shell structure is investigated via UV-Vis spectrum of the as-synthesized particles and its supernatants. Ni nanoparticles were synthesized using polyol method with hydrazine as the reducing agent. Coating of Au was conducted using sodium citrate as the reducing agent and acid citric to control the pH of the mixture. UV-Vis absorption spectra analysis of as-synthesized nanoparticles and the supernatant results revealed that the coating happened via redox-transmetallation process with a very broad peak at about 540 nm and size range of 26 - 40 nm. XPS results suggest that the coating consists of Au compound.

Core Shell Structure

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is a powerful tool in charge transfer (CT) process research. By analyzing the relative intensity of the characteristic bands in the bridging molecules, one can obtain detailed information about the CT between two materials. Herein, we synthesized a series of Au nanorods (NRs) with different length-to-diameter ratios (L/Ds) and used these Au NRs to prepare a series of core–shell structures with the same Cu2O thicknesses to form Au NR–4-mercaptobenzoic acid (MBA)@Cu2O core–shell structures. Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) absorption bands were adjusted by tuning the L/Ds of Au NR cores in these assemblies. SERS spectra of the core-shell structure were obtained under 633 and 785 nm laser excitations, and on the basis of the differences in the relative band strengths of these SERS spectra detected with the as-synthesized assemblies, we calculated the CT degree of the core–shell structure. We explored whether the Cu2O conduction band and valence band position and the SPR absorption band position together affect the CT process in the core–shell structure. In this work, we found that the specific surface area of the Au NRs could influence the CT process in Au NR–MBA@Cu2O core–shell structures, which has rarely been discussed before.

The core–shell structure composite magnetic nanoparticles (NPs), Fe3O4@chitosan@nimodipine (Fe3O4@CS@NMDP), were successfully synthesized by a chemical cross-linking method in this paper. NMDP is widely used for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease prevention and treatment, while CS is of biocompatibility. The composite particles were characterized by an X-ray diffractometer (XRD), a Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), a transmission electron microscopy (TEM), a vibrating sample magnetometers (VSM) and a high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The results show that the size of the core–shell structure composite particles is ranging from 12[Formula: see text]nm to 20[Formula: see text]nm and the coating thickness of NMDP is about 2[Formula: see text]nm. The saturation magnetization of core–shell composite NPs is 46.7[Formula: see text]emu/g, which indicates a good potential application for treating cancer by magnetic target delivery. The release percentage of the NMDP can reach 57.6% in a short time of 20[Formula: see text]min in the PBS, and to 100% in a time of 60[Formula: see text]min, which indicates the availability of Fe3O4@CS@NMDP composite NPs for targeting delivery treatment.
