FePt nanoparticles (NPs) have been encapsulated in the insulating and protective oxide matrix, using a sol–gel process, in order to prevent particles from agglomerating and sintering during the heat-treatment process required for the L10 ordering. The microstructural and ferromagnetic properties of...
