Synthesis and size control of cobalt phosphate rosettes using surfactant-templated synthesis.
Novel cobalt phosphate rosettes have been synthesized. Control over the particle size and rosette geometry is afforded through the use of cationic quaternary ammonium salt surfactants. Small variations in the surfactant concentration allow for control over the rosette diameter.
