The physicochemical properties of spinel oxide magnetic nanoparticles depend critically on both their size and shape. In particular, nanocrystals with cubic morphology have shown superior in comparison to spherical counterparts a variety fields, like, for example, biomedicine. Therefore, having an accurate control over the nanoparticle shape size, while preserving crystallinity, becomes crucial many applications. However, despite increasing interest nanocubes there are relatively few studies...
Nanotherapies are gaining increased interest for the treatment diverse diseases, particularly cancer, since they target affected area directly, presenting higher efficacy and reduced side effects than traditional therapies. A promising nanotherapy approach is hyperthermia, where nanoparticle can induce a local temperature increase by an external stimulus in sick tissue to selectively kill malignant cells. Among hyperthermia methods, photothermia based on absorption of light nanoparticles...
