V. Berejnov et al., SYNTHESIS OF STABLE LYOTROPIC FERRONEMATICS WITH HIGH MAGNETIC CONTENT, Journal of colloid and interface science, 199(2), 1998, pp. 215-217
We report synthesis of colloidal solutions of ferrite nanoparticles in
the surfactant micellar system potassium laurate/1-decanol/water with
in its region of nematic order, The obtained ferronematic specimens ar
e reversibly oriented by low (less than or equal to 100 Oe) magnetic f
ields and retain their transparency and stability for several months.
