Abstract

This paper reports the magnetic control of nanoparticle collisions on gold ultramicroelectrode surface. Magnetite nanoparticles with diameters of 10 nm and modified with Prussian blue (Fe3O4-NPs-PB) were directed by gravitational force on the electrode surface, and spikes in current-time transients were observed. By modulating a magnetic field parallel to the electrode surface, the number of nanoparticle collisions and the nanoparticle positions could be controlled. (AU)
