title: Size control of magnetite nanoparticles in excess ligands as a function of reaction temperature and time.
abstract: The novel synthesis of monodisperse magnetite Fe(3)O(4) nanoparticles of varying sizes using a solventless synthetic method was developed. Iron salt was treated in excess oleylamine and oleic acid as ligands. The effect of the reaction temperature and time on the particle size was investigated and the particle sizes were easily tuned from 5.3 to 20.4 nm by changing the reaction temperature and time.
