«The largest
superparamagnetic materials that we have been able to make before now were clusters of nanocrystals that were together about a thousand times smaller than these,» commented Dr. Chen.
This superparamagnetic material can be cut into arbitrary shapes and is suitable for applications such as multiphase catalysis and the removal of heavy metal ions and oil from water.

The first author Byeonghwa Lim at DGIST's Ph.D program of Emerging
Materials Science elaborated on the biosensor platform, «We placed a spider web - shaped micro-magnetic pattern which was designed to move the
superparamagnetic particles toward the center of the biosensor and a high sensitivity biosensor on the platform.
This method of making larger
superparamagnetic crystals paves the way for the development of
superparamagnetic bulk
materials that can be reliably controlled by moderate external magnetic forces, revolutionizing drug delivery to tumors and other sites in the body that need to be targeted precisely.
