Do Twin Boundaries Always Strengthen Metal Nanowires?
Nanoscale Research Letters, 2008 It has been widely reported that twin boundaries strengthen nanowires regardless of their morphology—that is, the strength of nanowires goes up as twin spacing goes down.

Synthesis and Magnetic Properties of NiCo Nanowire Array by Potentiostatic Electrodeposition
International Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2014 NiCo alloy nanowires have been fabricated by electrodeposition using anodized aluminum oxide templates. Growth of nanowires consists of four different stages namely nucleation, steady state growth, filling of pores, and coverage of filled nanowires on ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Shellac, a centuries‐old natural resin, is reimagined as a green material for flexible electronics. When combined with silver nanowires, shellac films deliver transparency, conductivity, and stability against humidity. These results position shellac as a sustainable alternative to synthetic polymers for transparent conductors in next‐generation ...

Optical Binding of Nanowires [PDF]
Nano Letters, 2017 Multiple scattering of light induces structured interactions, or optical binding forces, between collections of small particles. This has been extensively studied in the case of microspheres. However, binding forces are strongly shape dependent: here, we turn our attention to dielectric nanowires. Using a novel numerical model we uncover rich behavior.

Single-nanowire spectrometers [PDF]
Science, 2019 Miniaturizing spectrometers Spectroscopy is a ubiquitous characterization tool spanning most scientific and many industrial disciplines. Most handheld spectrometers are based on tabletop optical components, which limits the scale to which these spectrometers can be shrunk. To address the desire for miniaturized spectrometers with
