High-tem- perature annealing facilitates the conversion of FePt from disordered alloy to ordered intermetaUics. Under the protec- tion of MgO, the diffusion of Fe and Pt atoms was limited, making it possible for the atom reconstruction in the lattice to give discrete FePt intermetaUic NPs after a facile acid etching process. FePt intermetallic NPs formed face-centered cubic and face-centered tetragonal structures with their magnetic properties tuned by composition. The saturation magnetiza- tion was adjusted from 8 to 52 emu g^-1 by increasing the Fe concentration, while the coercivity reached a max/mum of 33 kOe when Fe concentration was 44%. After surface mod- ifications by hydrophilic or hydrophobic molecules containing thiol groups, FePt intermetallic NPs could be dissolved into water or hydrocarbon solvents. The hydrophilic L10-FePt in- termetallic NPs were applied as contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging, showing a high transverse relaxivity of 328.6 mmo1^-1 L s^-l, which indicated the great potential of FePt intermetallic NPs as molecular probes for cancer diagnosis.展开更多
