• content of 50 atom %. Additionally, an estimation of the effective experimental cooling rate was made. Keywords: composite nanoparticle; gas-phase synthesis; molecular dynamics modelling; Introduction In recent years, due to the development of various methods of synthesis, it has become possible to

• precipitation of the powder. The composite nanoparticle vapour, passing into the chamber (9) through the pipe (8), is deposited on the filter (10). Simulation Technique For the simulations, we used the molecular dynamics method, in which the matter is considered at the atomic level without explicitly taking

• distance using the combined strong electrostatic adsorption. Secondly, FA was conjugated with this composite nanoparticle for biological applications, where the FA renders the nanoparticle useful for the specific targeting of cancer cells [28][29]. According to current knowledge, when bulk semiconductor

• -substrate. As a result, the particles self-assembled into a monolayer with hexagonal close-packed order. Subsequently, the nanoparticle array was coated with a Co layer of 20 nm thickness. The magnetic properties of this composite nanoparticle/thin film system were investigated by magnetometry and related

• composites are prepared by physical growth methods, such as sputtering [18][19], sequential pulsed laser deposition [20][21], sputtering gas aggregation [22] or mechanical milling [23]. In this work, we report a different approach to fabricate composite nanoparticle/thin-film materials, i.e., which combines
