This paper briefly reviews our recent advances in the magnetic separation of nanoparticles, which has long been considered challenging because of their strong Brownian motion. We show that field-induced phase separation enhances significantly the efficiency of nanoparticle magnetic separation that is expected to give rise to numerous emerging applications of magnetic nanoparticles
