Synthesis and modelling of the mechanical properties of Ag, Au and Cu nanowires

Abstract: The recent interest to nanotechnology aims not only at device miniaturisation, but also at understanding the effects of quantised structure in materials of reduced dimensions, which exhibit different properties from their bulk counterparts. In particular, quantised metal nanowires made of silver, gold or copper have attracted much attention owing to their unique intrinsic and extrinsic length-dependent mechanical properties. Here we review the current state of art and developments in these nanowires from synth… Show more

“…[101] Adding length to a 0D nanostructured material changes its fundamental functional properties, mainly allowing for electronic conduction along the length of the material. [101] Noble metal nanowires have been widely studied for their nanomechanical properties as they show an impressive strength-to-weight ratio and minimal defect acquisition, both features being advantageous for applications in cellular studies. [101] Figure 7a shows images for different types of noble metal nanowires: wires, belts, rods, and tubes.…”

“…The size of nanomaterials can also facilitate effective interaction with targeted biomolecules. Furthermore, since the dimension of nanomaterials is comparable to the Debye length [32][33][34][35], their speci c surface properties affect the kinetics and thermodynamics of electron transfer signi cantly [36,37]. Offering potential for electronic detection of surface functionalisation.…”

“…Gold (Au) based one-dimensional (1-D) nanomaterial is a candidate for achieving an ultrasensitive MC biosensor device [38][39][40][41][42][43]. Speci cally, for exible chemo resistive sensors.Au nanowires (AuNWs) are attractive because they possess minimal cross-sectional area but have the ability to increase the oodcurrent along the axial current direction, resulting in higher conductance changes compared to the typical zero-dimensional (0-D) nanomaterials [44,45]. The chemoreceptive characteristics of AuNWs such as the capability to serve as biocompatible surface for the immobilisation of biomolecules in a correct orientation which enhances the binding a nity of antigen-antibody and the ability to support a swift electron-transfer which causes the ow of one-way electron between two electrodes are key considerations in designing the MC nano biosensor [46][47][48][49][50][51].…”
