Controlled Growth of Aligned Polymer Nanowires

TL;DR: In this paper, a one-step method to fabricate large-scale polymer nanowire (PNW) arrays of any organic materials, with a good control over the density and length, was developed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermoelectrics of Nanowires.

TL;DR: A comprehensive look at various aspects of thermoelectrics of NWs, including earlier theoretical and experimental work on quantum confinement effects and semimetal-to-semiconductor transition, surface engineering and complex heterostructures to enhance the carrier mobility and power factor, and the recent emergence of topological insulator NWs are provided.

WO3−x nanowires based electrochromic devices

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple method was developed to fabricate tungsten oxide (WO3−x) nanowires based electrochromic devices, which can be grown on a large scale directly onto an ITO-coated glass.
Journal ArticleDOI

Preparation of well-aligned ZnO whiskers on glass substrate by atmospheric MOCVD

TL;DR: In this paper, a well-aligned zinc oxide whiskers with high density were successfully prepared on amorphous substrate by atmospheric metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) and X-ray diffraction measurements indicated that the ZnO whiskers were wurtzite crystal structure, and grew non-epitaxially on glass substrate along a [0, 0, 0, 0, 1] direction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of electroless etching parameters on the growth and reflection properties of silicon nanowires.

TL;DR: The remarkable decrease in optical reflectivity indicates that Si NWs have a great potential to be utilized in radial or coaxial p-n heterojunction solar cells that could provide orthogonal photon absorption and enhanced carrier collection.

The influence of dislocations on crystal growth

TL;DR: In fact, the existence of a critical finite supersaturation for further growth has only been established for a few materials, and then for individual faces of individual crystals, being different from case to case as discussed by the authors.
