Abstract:
The Cr-based tellurides are attractive material systems for fundamental studies and potential applications. Colloidal syntheses of ferromagnetic Cr(2)Te(3) and CuCr(2)Te(4) nanocrystals with uniform morphology and narrow size distribution are reported together with their detailed magnetic characterisation.
