  • Method for making magnetic fluorescent core shell nanoparticles
    Patent number: 7811550
    Abstract: This invention comprises nanoparticles for use with biosensors. The nanoparticles have core/shell architecture. The nanoparticles can be detected by two means, magnetic and optical by virtue of the nanoparticles magnetic core and fluorescent semiconductor shell. Methods of making the nanoparticles and their composition are described.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 19, 2006
    Date of Patent: October 12, 2010
    Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy
    Inventors: Everett E. Carpenter, Vincent Carpenter
