Abstract

Ultra-thin europium oxysulfide nanorods were synthesized through a facile colloidal method. In addition to their size-dependent optical properties, surprising magnetic properties were observed for the first time. The nanorods were readily assembled into uniform films by electrophoretic deposition. This research opens up the opportunity for lanthanide compound nanomaterials to be efficiently synthesized and assembled.
