Quasi-hexagonally ordered two-dimensional arrays of iron oxide nanoparticles with a systematic tunability of particle heights in the sub-10 nm regime and a constant periodicity are obtained and characterized with atomic force microscopy and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.The systematic tunability of nanoparticle dimensions through the controlled loading of surface-deposited diblock copolymer micellestext::journal::journal article::research article
