The purpose of the study was to synthesize and investigate the influence of geometrical structure, magnetism, and cytotoxic activity on core-shell platinum and iron-platinum (Fe/Pt) composite nanowires (NWs) for potential application in targeted chemotherapeutic approaches. The Pt-NWs and Fe/Pt composite NWs were synthesized via template electrodeposition, using anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) membranes. The Fe/Pt composite NWs (Method 1) was synthesized using two electrodeposition steps, allowing for greater control of the diameter of the NW core. The Fe/Pt composite NWs (Method 2) was synthesized by pulsed electrodeposition, using a single electrolytic bath. The properties of the synthesized NWs were assessed by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), Raman spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES), vibrating-sample magnetometry (VSM), and surface charge (zeta potential). A microscopy image analysis of the NWs revealed the presence of high-aspect-ratio NWs with nominal diameters of 40-50 nm and lengths of approximately <4 µm. The obtained powder XRD patterns confirmed the presence of a polycrystalline structure for both Pt NWs and Fe/Pt composite NWs. The potential utility of the synthesized NW nanoplatforms for anticancer activity was investigated using Tera 1 cells and Mouse 3T3 cells. Pt-NWs displayed modest cytotoxic activity against Tera 1 cells, while the Fe/Pt composite NWs (both Methods 1 and 2) demonstrated enhanced cytotoxic activity compared to the Pt-NWs on Tera 1 cells. The Fe/Pt composite NWs (Method 1) displayed ferromagnetic behavior and enhanced cytotoxic activity compared to Pt-NWs on Tera 1 cells, thus providing a sound basis for future magnetically targeted chemotherapeutic applications.

Diatomic catalysts featuring a tunable structure and synergetic effects hold great promise for various reactions. However, their precise construction with specific configurations and diverse metal combinations is still challenging. Here, a selective etching and metal ion adsorption strategy is proposed to accurately assign a second metal atom (M) geminal to the single atom site (M-N) for constructing diatomic sites (e.

The density functional theory (DFT) framework in the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) was employed to study the mechanical, dynamical, and thermodynamic properties of the ordered bimetallic Fe-Pt alloys with stoichiometric structures FePt, FePt, and FePt. These alloys exhibit remarkable magnetic properties, high coercivity, excellent chemical stability, high magnetization, and corrosion resistance, making them potential candidates for application in high-density magnetic storage devices, magnetic recording media, and spintronic devices. The calculations of elastic constants showed that all the considered Fe-Pt alloys satisfy the Born necessary conditions for mechanical stability.

The bulk properties and surface chemical reactivity of compositionally disordered Pt-Fe and Pt-Co alloys in the A1 phase have been investigated theoretically in comparison to the ordered alloys of the same compositions. The results are analyzed together with our previously reported findings for Pt-Ni. Nonlinear variation is observed in lattice constant, d band center, magnetic moment, and hydrogen adsorption energy across the composition range (0-100 atomic % of Pt, ).

A novel electrochemical gas sensor for sensitive detection of HS at room temperature is constructed based on the Fe@Pt/C composite material. The core-shell structured Fe@Pt catalyst was synthesized by a two-step reduction method and physically dispersed in Vulcan XC-72 carbon powders. The core-shell structure increases the effective catalytic surface area of Pt while significantly reducing the usage of the noble metal Pt, leading to improved catalytic performance and decreased production costs.

Direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) has shown excellent growth as an alternative candidate for energy sources to substitute fossil fuels. However, developing cost-effective and highly durable catalysts with a facile synthesis method is still challenging. In this prospect, a facile strategy is used for the preparation of hydrophilic Fe-Pt nanoparticle catalyst via a polyethylene glycol-glycerol route to utilize the advantages of nanostructured surfaces.
