Growing self-assembled silicon nanowires (SiNWs) into precise locations represents a
critical capability to scale up SiNW-based functionalities. We here report a novel epitaxy …

Porous alumina templates have been fabricated by applying an exponential voltage
decrease at the end of the anodization process. The time constant η of the exponential …

A co‐tunneling charge‐transfer process dominates the electrical properties of a nanometer‐
sized “slice” in a nanoparticle network, which results in universal scaling of the conductance …

Growing silicon nanowires (SiNWs) into precise locations is a key enabling technology for
SiNW-based device applications. This can be achieved via in-plane growth of SiNWs along …
