Popis:	Monodispersive FePt nanoparticle films can be stabilized firmly on rigid Si substrates using amino-functional silane, such as [3-(2-aminoethlyamino) propyl]trimethoxysilane, as a coupling layer. The Si substrate/SiO2/APTS/FePt nanoparticles heterostructure was confirmed using high-resolution electron microscopy (HREM). The HREM result agreed well with the x-ray reflectivity measurement upon the individual layer thickness. The as-made superparamagnetic FePt nanoparticle film transformed from chemically disordered fcc structure to chemically ordered L10 phase upon annealing at 800 °C for 30 min under a vacuum of 10−8 Torr. Plan-view high-resolution scanning electron microscopy (HRSEM) observation indicated that under high-vacuum annealing, coalescence of the monodispersive nanoparticle film was not significant. The HRSEM result was consistent with the in-plane x-ray diffractometry measurement, in which sharpening of the diffraction peaks occurred only very slightly for the annealed films.
