A fast approach was described for the synthesis of water-dispersible monodisperse dopamine-coated Fe304 nanoparticles (DA- Fe304) with uniform size and shape via ligand-exchange of oleic acid on Fe304 using only 2 m...A fast approach was described for the synthesis of water-dispersible monodisperse dopamine-coated Fe304 nanoparticles (DA- Fe304) with uniform size and shape via ligand-exchange of oleic acid on Fe304 using only 2 min. The prepared DA-Fe304 nanoparticles were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, and vibrating sample magnetometer. The results indicated that the resulting DA-Fe304 nanoparticles had an average diameter of about 19.2 nm. The magnetic saturation value of the prepared DA-Fe304 nanoparticles was determined to be 72.87 emu/g, which indicating a well- established superparamagnetic property.展开更多

The profile nonlinear least squares estimator of unknown parameter and the estimator of nonparametric component are constructed, and their asymptotic properties are derived under general assumptions. Finite sample performances of the proposed statistical inference procedures are illustrated by Monte Carlo simulation studies.展开更多
