Europium  oxide and europium sulfide nanowires have been synthesized via hydrothermal and solid-state routes with tunable morphologies.  Changes  in magnetic properties have been studied by manipulating particle size  and aspect ratio, as well as by probing their band structures with  electron doping, via gadolinium incorporation.  Effects resulting from  single-crystalline and polycrystalline composition are examined.
