Template-grown metal nanowires.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The growth of metal nanowires using membranes as hard templates is reviewed. The method provides access to arrays of single-crystal metal nanowires and to quasi-one-dimensional metal nanostructures with controlled compositional variation along their length. Recent applications of these kinds of nanowires to problems in superconductivity, optical spectroscopy and sensing, and catalytic conversion of chemical to mechanical energy are reviewed.

Area Effect of Reflectance in Silicon Nanowires Grown by Electroless Etching
This paper shows that the reflectance in silicon nanowires (SiNWs) can be optimized as a function of the area of silicon substrate where the nanostructure growth. SiNWs were fabricated over four different areas of silicon substrates to study the size effects using electroless etching technique. Three different etching solution concentrations of silver nitrate (AgNO3) and hydroflu...
متن کاملElectrochemical fabrication of Cu/Pd multilayer nanowires in polycarbonate template
In this work,copper/palladium (Cu/Pd) multilayer nanowires were successfully prepared by electrodeposition method using polycarbonate template. The fabrication of Pd/Cu multilayer nanowires was controlled by analyzing the current–time transient during electrodeposition using potentiostat. The morphological properties of the nanowires were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and resu...
متن کاملTemplate synthesis of metal nanowires containing monolayer molecular junctions.
Metal nanowires containing in-wire monolayer junctions of 16-mercaptohexanoic acid were made by replication of the pores of 70 nm diameter polycarbonate track etch membranes. Au was electrochemically deposited halfway through the 6 microm long pores and a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of 16-mercaptohexadecanoic acid was adsorbed on top. A thin layer of Au was then electrolessly grown to form a...
متن کاملInAs-mediated growth of vertical InSb nanowires on Si substrates
In this work, InSb nanowires are grown vertically on Si (111) with metal organic chemical vapor deposition using InAs as seed layer, instead of external metal catalyst. Two groups of InSb nanowires are fabricated and characterized: one group presents Indium droplets at the nanowire's free end, while the other, in contrast, ends without Indium droplet but with pyramid-shaped InSb. The indium-dro...
متن کاملMnO2/poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) coaxial nanowires by one-step coelectrodeposition for electrochemical energy storage.
One-dimensional (1D) nanostructured materials have been intensively investigated as building components in electrochemical energy storage1 and solar energy conversion2 devices because they provide short diffusion path lengths to ions and excitons, leading to high charge/discharge rates1 and high solar energy conversion efficiency.2 More recently, coaxial nanowires have attracted greater attenti...
