Abstract

A nanoparticle with tunable radial gradients of compositions extending from the center of the nanoparticles. The nature of the gradient preserves the metallic state of the nanoparticles, the diffusion of the constituents, and the oxidation of the interface. The gradients can be purposely varied to allow for specific applications in fields ranging from corrosion, magnetics, information technology, imaging, electromagnetic absorption, coating technologies, and immuno-precipitation. The nanoparticles can be easily used to advance many areas of industry, technology, and life sciences.
