Abstract
In this report the assembly of magnetofluorescent supernanoparticles intended for use as drug delivery vehicles is detailed. Iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesised using two different synthesis methods, a co-precipition method and a thermal decompostion method. CdSe quantum dots were synthesized using two variations of thermal decomposition synthesis, and the formation of a CdS shell around the quantum dots was performed to improve fluorescence. Finally supernanoparticles were assembled using the synthesised iron oxide nanoparticles and quantum dots with CdS shell, and showed clear magneto-fluorescent behaviour.
