Neutron lauegram of the first chemically and magnetically chiral molecular magnet (Clara Gonzalez and Fernando Palacio).
Transportation of magnetic particles in a staircase pattern of magnetic cylinders (2x6x0.1 µm) in an applied rotating magnetic field. Movie by Klas Gunnarsson et al., Adv Mater 2005, 17, 1730-1734
polymer cubes Magnetic 2 µm polymer cubes were made using the PRINT technology (particle replication in non-wetting templates) by K.P. Herlihy and J.M. DeSimone, Proc. SPIE 6517, 651737 (2007).
Many magnetic iron oxides have distinct coloures, as shown in these colour tables from Cornell & Schwertmann 2003.
Magnetic separation on a chip is nicely shown by this movie that you see after clicking on the chip! High field gradients along the magnetizable strips efficiently separate the particles. Courtesy of Sang-Hyun Oh, University of Minnesota.
3D MRI reconstruction of mouse brain following injection of magnetically labeled neural stem cells shows widespread dissemination of cells throughout the brain (courtesy of Piotr Walczak and Jeff Bulte).
Incorporating magnetic nanoparticles into a spider silk "beam" led to a magnetically responsive structure (magnet held above the silk) (Jiamei Bai et al, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada).
The magnetic stent, presented at our conference in Lyon, demonstrates that magnetic microspheres carrying therapeutic substances can be delivered to magnetized cardiovascular implants by simple intra-arterial injection (Benjamin Yellen et al 2004).
These pictures are on our 2006 conference poster. They show magnetic coils on a silicon chip and were developed by Dr. Qasem Ramadan, Nanyang University, Singapore.
