dc.description.abstractThe synthesis of bimetallic immiscible alloy nanoparticles (NPs) using versatile routes, is a major concern since physio-chemical methods are not environmentally benign. Breaking down the immiscibility would generate NPs with remarkable properties and consequently more applications. As a result, it urges the development of one-step, eco-friendly, efficient, and reliable methods for getting more metastable bimetallic alloys from immiscible metals. To that aim, unconventional approaches such as green and gamma radiolysis were considered as the paths forward in this thesis. The wide immiscibility gaps of iron-silver (Fe-Ag), and iron-zinc (Fe-Zn) led to their selection.en_US
