Synthesis and Characterization of SWCNT-Functionalized Fe3O4 Nanoparticles

In this study, we describe a novel strategy for the synthesis and characterization of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) modified with iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe3O4|Fe2O3|FeO). The preparation process involves a two-step approach, first bonding SWCNTs onto a appropriate substrate and then incorporating Fe3O4 nanoparticles via a solvothermal
