From particles to fibers : Nanofibers with different morphologies and periodicities can be fabricated by supraparticular assembly of magnetic spherical nanoparticles. A linear sintering process is used to merge the assembled colloids together. The structure of the obtained fibers is controlled by the process parameters and the morphology of the spherical colloidal building blocks.
