title: Controlled synthesis of iron oxide nanoplates and nanoflowers.
abstract: An effective approach to synthesizing crystalline iron oxide nanoplates (~3 nm thick) and nanoflowers composed of ~5 nm small grains was reported. The formation of different-shaped nanoparticles in a similar system was achieved by controlling the nucleus concentration and growth rate.
