In an era of increasing data storage densities, FePt nanoparticles are ideal candidates due to their high anisotropy (K) values and their desirable magnetic properties in the L10 phase. However, the transformation of FePt nanoparticles to the L10 phase by annealing poses problems such as the loss o...
