There are a variety of methods for synthesizing or fabricating one‐dimensional (1D)
nanostructures containing heterojunctions between different materials. Here we review …

The nanoscale diameter and high aspect ratio of nanowires are the foundation of fascinating
structure-property relationships derived from confinement, interface effects, and mechanical …

Nanotechnology is a culmination of many facets of scientific and technological
developments in the nanorealm, including nanofabrication, nanomachineries, quantum …

We present the room-temperature sensing of gold nanoparticle (AuNP)-functionalized In2O3
nanowire field-effect transistor (NW-FET) for low-concentration CO gas. AuNPs were …

Single-crystalline ZnO nanowires were synthesized, and further modified with Pd
nanoparticles through self-assemblies. The self-assembly strategy shows advantages of …

The use of magnetic force microscopy (MFM) to detect probe–sample interactions from
superparamagnetic nanoparticles in vitro in ambient atmospheric conditions is reported …

One of the most difficult problems facing the integrated circuit industry is that conventional
top-down strategies, which have been the methods of choice for decades, have almost …

The structure and magnetic properties of different types of templated wires are compared in
this study. A long DNA molecule was used to guide the assembly of pyrrolidinone-capped …

We present a scanning magnetic force sensor based on an individual magnet-tipped GaAs
nanowire (NW) grown by molecular beam epitaxy. Its magnetic tip consists of a final …

Since the invention of the atomic force microscope (AFM) in 1986, there has been a drive to
apply this scanning probe technique or a form of this technique to various disciplines in …
