Abstract
Best of both worlds: Reduction of an organometallic Co precursor on preformed CdSe nanorods yields two distinct semiconducting–magnetic heterostructures (see picture). The selective growth of Co on the tips of CdSe first gives nanosphere–nanorod dimers, which evolve into nanorod–nanorod structures. In the hybrid objects the magnetic properties of Co remain intact, while the luminescence properties of CdSe are affected but not completely quenched.
