Nanowires self-assemble into custom arrangements | E&T Magazine – E&T Magazine

Tokyo Metropolitan University researchers have developed a technique to make self-assembled nanowires at scale and tune their arrangement using chemical vapour deposition (CVD).
In order to continue miniaturising electronics, packing more computing power into the same amount of space, it is necessary to create smaller and smaller wiring and components.
A hypothetical atom-thick wire, for instance, would be the ultimate goal. This could give rise to new categories of electronic and energy devices,…
