The past 20 years have witnessed simultaneous multidisciplinary explosions in
experimental techniques for synthesizing new materials, measuring and manipulating …

The controlled fabrication of nanometer-scale objects is without doubt one of the central
issues in current science and technology. However, existing fabrication techniques suffer …

Semiconducting inorganic nanowires (NWs), nanotubes and nanofibers have been
extensively explored in recent years as potential building blocks for nanoscale electronics …

A nanowire is a structure with a diameter of the order of a nanometer. When the diameter
puts the radial dimension of the nanowire at or below certain characteristic lengths, such as …

The recent years have seen an explosive interest in one‐dimensional nanostructures 1, as
testified by the number of citations this field has accrued; as customary, its blossoming was …

Well-defined periodic mesostructures of hydrophilic ultrathin Te nanowires with aspect ratios
of at least 104 can be produced by the Langmuir− Blodgett technique without any extra …

Materials and their assemblies of dimensions down to a few nanometers have attracted
considerable scientific interest in physical, chemical, and biological sciences because of …

A facile and quick approach to prepare self-assembled monolayers of water-dispersible
particles on the water surface is presented. Particle suspensions in alcohols were dropped …

A highly aligned 1D fullerene whisker (FW) scaffold in a centimeter area is fabricated by
