Guest Editorial: Chemistry and Physics of Nanowires

Abstract: It has been our greatest pleasure to put together this special issue that is intended to cover all major aspects of research devoted to the chemistry, physics, and materials science associated with nanowires. Nanostructures (i.e., structures with at least one dimension in the range of 1±100 nm) have attracted steadily growing interest due to their peculiar, fascinating properties, as well as their unique applications complementary to the bulk materials. The ability to generate such small structures is central … Show more

“…During the past decade, much effort has been devoted to the synthesis of one-dimensional (1D) nanostructures, because of the importance of understanding the dimension-confined transport phenomena and fabricating nano-devices and nanosensors. [1][2][3] Many synthetic methods, such as thermal evaporation, laser-assisted catalytic growth, and solution-based chemical reaction, have been successfully established for the preparation of a wide range of 1D nanostructures, such as Ag, Si and ZnO. [3][4][5][6] However, the size of the generated products derived from the present methods is always relatively large (above 5 nm).…”

[3][4][5][6] However, the size of the generated products derived from the present methods is always relatively large (above 5 nm). Moreover, the ultrathin 1D nanostructures with size of 1-2 nm is rarely studied due to the lack of preparation methods for such materials.…”

“…Most semiconductor NWs [2] are produced using the vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) growth method that has been generalized and expanded to a host of semiconductor materials by Lieber's group [10]. VLS NWs require a metal nanoparticle to seed NW growth, and NWs are often prepared as a powder or as a surfacesupported film.…”
