Synthesis and manipulation of advanced bimetallic nanomaterials via a green and low-cost wet chemical route are of great importance for the industrialization potential. Materials design integrating the synthesis of nanomaterials through an environmentally benign route with a simple manipulation method is a challenge. The CoPt hollow nanochains have been successfully synthesized in aqueous solution with shell thickness of about 5 nm and tunable length from 300 nm to 2 渭m. The as-prepared CoPt hollow nanochains can be easily aligned by the external magnetic fields and can be attached onto substrates, such as silicon wafer. The synthesis strategy is characterized by room temperature reaction (300 K), low cost, and utilization of facile reagents (water as solvent). Growth kinetics investigation shows the magnetostatic interactions between Co clusters together with the spontaneous galvanic replacement between Co clusters and Pt ions are indispensable for the formation of aligned hollow nanochains. Magnetic measurements indicate that the shape anisotropy of 1D aligned nanochains plays a dominant role on the good controllable behavior.
