Abstract
Work reported on the synthesis of nanowires of different metals/alloys and semiconductors respectively in recent years is reviewed The methods used mostly belong to one of the following categories: chemical, electrodeposition, physical and filling of carbon nanotubes Electrical properties investigated for some of these nanowires indicate quantum mechanical effects to be present Nanodevice fabrication using doped semiconducting nanowires has also been reported

Acute toxicological impact of nano- and submicro-scaled zinc oxide powder on healthy adult mice

TL;DR: The pathological examination showed that the liver, spleen, heart, pancreas and bone are the target organs for 20- and 120-nm ZnO oral exposure, and the results of blood measurement suggest that the increase in blood viscosity could be induced by low and median dose of 20-nmZnO but high dose of 120- nm ZNO.

Material-Based Approaches for the Fabrication of Stretchable Electronics.

TL;DR: Various approaches for fabricating intrinsically stretchable electronic materials are presented, including the blending of electronic fillers into elastomer matrices, the formation of bi-layered heterogeneous electronic-layer and elastomers support-layer structures, and modifications to polymeric molecular structures in order to impart stretchability.

Template synthesis of nanomaterials

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an overview of template synthesis as it applies to our nanomaterials research, which is motivated by the desire to find an alternative to the big, top-down approaches to nanoscience, such as cleanrooms and X-ray lithography.

Logic gates and computation from assembled nanowire building blocks.

TL;DR: It is shown that crossed nanowire p-n junctions and junction arrays can be assembled in over 95% yield with controllable electrical characteristics, and in addition, that these junctions can be used to create integrated nanoscale field-effect transistor arrays with nanowires as both the conducting channel and gate electrode.

'Luttinger liquid theory' of one-dimensional quantum fluids. I. Properties of the Luttinger model and their extension to the general 1D interacting spinless Fermi gas

TL;DR: The explicitly soluble Luttinger model is used as a basis for the description of the general interacting Fermi gas in one dimension, which will be called "LUTtinger liquid theory" as mentioned in this paper.
