Typically, direct overgrowth on the side wall of the nanowire leads to co-axial heterostructures, whereas sequential nanowire VLS growth produces longitudinal heterostructures.

Nanowires are known for their exceptional physical properties, which are largely influenced by their nanoscale dimensions. These properties include enhanced electrical, thermal, and optical behaviors ...

Nanowires are ultrafine wires or linear arrays of dots, formed by self-assembly. They can be made from a wide range of materials. Semiconductor nanowires made of silicon, gallium nitride and indium ...
