Colloidal synthesis of low-dispersity high entropy rock-salt oxide nanoparticles.

Abstract

A novel synthesis route torwards small (<5 nm), low-dispersity (<20%) high entropy and multi-metal rock-salt oxide nanoparticles is described. The synthesis was achieved using a combination of oleylamine and dodecanol as ligands and metal acetylacetonates as precursors with a simple heat-up procedure.
