TL;DR: This work presents discrete, monodisperse, and precisely sizecontrollable core–shell mesoporous silica NPs smaller than 100 nm by using single Fe3O4 nanocrystals as cores (designated as Fe3 O4@mSiO2) and demonstrates the multifunctional bioapplications of the core-shell NPs for simultaneous magnetic resonance and fluorescence imaging, and for drug delivery.

TL;DR: This review focuses on the recent development and various strategies in the preparation, microstructure, and magnetic properties of bare and surface functionalized iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs); their corresponding biological application was also discussed.

TL;DR: The synthesis of semiconductor nanocrystals of PbS, ZnS, CdS, and MnS through a facile and inexpensive synthetic process and all of the synthesized nanocry crystals were highly crystalline.

TL;DR: Results clearly indicate that CTAC worked much better than CTAB as a capping agent in both the syntheses of Au seeds and Au@Ag core-shell nanocubes, which could be converted into Au-based hollow nanostructures containing the original Au seeds in the interiors through a galvanic replacement reaction.

TL;DR: Galvanic replacement reactions provide a simple and versatile route for producing hollow nanostructures with controllable pore structures and compositions and were demonstrated in metal oxide nanocrystals as well.
