Surface-segregation-induced phase separation in epitaxial Au/Co nanoparticles: Formation and stability of core-shell structures
We have studied formation and stability of core-shell structures in epitaxial Au/Co nanoparticles (NPs) by using atomic-resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy. As the particle size reduces, number of NPs having Au-shell increases and their frequency of occurrence reached 65%. Au segreg...
