Congratulations! Dr. Liu is selected as the recipient of University of Texas at Arlington Outstanding Research Achievement or Creative Accomplishment Award. Congratulations! Our graduate student Kevin Elkins has successfully defended his Ph.D. thesis on March 5, 2008 -
Congratulations to Dr. Chuanbing Rong and his wife Hongyan Pan for the arrival of their second daughter SUNNY on Dec. 4, 2007.
Thanksgiving news: Nanotechweb reported our research results on preparation of Sm-Co nanoparticles by surfactant-assisted ball milling (in pdf) (in html). Congratulations to
Kazuaki Yano on his successful pass of Master thesis defense on Nov. 20, 2007. Brick-like hard-soft magnetic nanoparticles have been successfully synthesized by Girija and co-workers. Compared with core/shell structured nanoparticles, this type of bi-magnetic nanoparticles can be further manipulated to construct tri- or even qua-component nanoparticle systems. The research article "Synthesis and Characterization of Bi-magnetic Brick-like Nanoparticles" will be published in
Chemistry of Materials. Congratulations to Dr. Chuanbing Rong for his promotion to a Research Assistant Professor position!

Research Focus
The significant increase of applications of
advanced materials has created a great demand for deliberate exploration to
nanostructured magnetic materials. Our
group is currently working on hard and soft magnets spanning all
four dimensions - nanoparticles (0D), nanorods and nanowires (1D),
thin films and multilayers (2D), and nanostructured bulk magnets (3D).
