Abstract

Ordered nanoparticle assemblies can exhibit collective properties that are quite different from those displayed by the individual nanoparticles or their bulk counterpart. This paper reviews recent progress on the assembly of superparamagnetic nanoparticles, with emphasis on different strategies for their chemical fabrication with highly ordered nanostructures as well as their novel properties. Prospective applications of superparamagnetic nanoparticles in the fields of photonic crystals, biomedicine, and biology are also discussed.
