The prepared precursor solution underwent deep photolysis to polycrystalline iron–platinum nanoalloys through Fe(III) acetylacetonate and Pt(II) acetylacetonate. Fe(II) and Pt(I) acetylacetone decomposed into Fe0 and Pt0 nanoparticles. We found that the (001) diffraction peak shifted linearly to a lower angle, with the last peak shifting in opposition to the others. This caused the face-centered cubic L10 structure to change its composition according to laser fluence. The nanostructures were shown to contain iron and platinum only by energy-dispersive spectroscopy at several spots. The response of these iron–platinum nanoparticles to infrared depends on their stoichiometric composition, which is controlled by laser fluence.Keywords: nanostructures, iron, platinum, nanoparticles, laser liquid photolysis, compositionForbes ASideras-Haddad EMwakikunga BWNkosi SSDove Medical PressarticleMedical technologyR855-855.5Chemical technologyTP1-1185ENNanotechnology, Science and Applications, Vol 2012, Iss default, Pp 27-36 (2012)
