Nanocrystalline nanowires: I. Structure.
نویسنده
چکیده
Geometric constructions of possible atomic arrangements are suggested for inorganic nanowires. These are fragments of bulk crystals, and can be called "nanocrystalline" nanowires (NCNW). To minimize surface polarity, nearly one-dimensional formula units, oriented along the growth axis, generate NCNWs by translation and rotation.

Template-directed synthesis, characterization and electrical properties of Au–TiO2–Au heterojunction nanowires
The feasibility of synthesizing metal–oxide–metal (MOM) heterojunction nanowires in the Au–TiO2–Au system is demonstrated. The synthesis method presented here entails sequential electroplating of Au and electro-deposition of amorphous titanium oxide (TiOx ) inside nanoholes of anodic aluminium oxide (AAO) templates. This is followed by dissolving the template, and heat-treating the released nan...
متن کاملSynthesis and characterization of cadmium telluride nanowire.
CdTe nanowires with controlled composition were cathodically electrodeposited using track-etched polycarbonate membrane as scaffolds and their material and electrical properties were systematically investigated. As-deposited CdTe nanowires show nanocrystalline cubic phase structures with grain sizes of up to 60 nm. The dark-field images of nanowires reveal that the crystallinity of nanowires wa...
متن کاملGrain Boundary Rotations near Crack Tips in Deformed Nanomaterials
A special mechanism/mode of plastic deformation occurring through stress-driven rotations of low-angle grain boundaries (GBs) near crack tips in nanocrystalline and ultrafinegrained (UFG) materials is theoretically described. It is demonstrated that such rotations of GBs represent energetically favorable processes in wide ranges of parameters characterizing precracked specimens with nanocrystal...
متن کاملNanocrystalline nanowires: III. Electrons.
Nanocrystalline nanowires (NCNW) are fragments of bulk crystals that are infinite in only one direction and typically have some rotational symmetry around this direction. Electron eigenstates belonging to the symmetry labels (k,m) (wavevector and rotational quantum number) are discussed. The rotational quantum number simplifies discussion of optical properties. For m not equal 0, the +/-m degen...
