Semiconductor Nanowires and Nanoribbons

With contributions from leading researchers in academia and industry, blending important concepts from physics, chemistry, materials science, and electrical engineering, Semiconductor Nanowires and Nanoribbons gives a detailed overview of key physical, chemical, and engineering principles of semiconductor nanowire structures.

It provides a comprehensive account of the current status, technical challenges, and future potential of these nanostructures.

The book is divided into two parts: Part 1 covers various strategies for the growth of 1D nanostructures and includes the hierarchical assembly of nanowires into increasingly complex networks and superstructures; Part 2 focuses on various aspects of physical properties and potential applications.
