Semiconductor nanowires, by definition, typically have cross-sectional dimensions that can be tuned from 2–200 nm, with lengths spanning from hundreds of nanometres to millimetres. These ...
Pure metal nanowires (NWs) are nanomaterials with distinctive properties that make them useful for various applications. However, their utilization in modern electronics has been limited by the lack ...
Nanowires are known for their exceptional physical properties, which are largely influenced by their nanoscale dimensions. These properties include enhanced electrical, thermal, and optical behaviors ...
Rongrui He and Peidong Yang have reported giant uniaxial piezoresistance in p-type silicon nanowires that is almost two orders of magnitude larger than that found in bulk silicon 1. Here ...
