Abstract

Thiol-capped Au nanoparticles with a permanent magnetic moment were prepared using a new two-step chemical process. The two-step process opens up a new facet of fundamental research on the mechanism of the induced ferromagnetism in intrinsically nonmagnetic materials by investigating independently the nano-size and chemical effects on the magnetism of thiol-capped Au nanoparticles.
