Size and temperature effects on the fracture mechanisms of silicon nanowires: Molecular dynamics simulations (2010, background): “Semiconducting nanowires (NWs) are key building blocks in nanotechnology, with many potential applications such as nano-scale transistors (Cui et al., 2003; Wang et al., 2003; Huang and Lieber, 2004), sensors (Cui et al.”
Vertical Silicon-Nanowire Formation and Gate-All-Around MOSFET (2008, background): “However, nanowires thus produced are randomly distributed and complicated processes are required to assemble them into functional devices [17]–[19].”
Brittle and ductile fracture of semiconductor nanowires – molecular dynamics simulations (2007, methodology): “With their diameter controllable by the size of the catalyst nanoparticles [1], and with their electronic properties tunable by doping [2], NWs can be used to construct nano-scale electronic devices, such as fleld efiect transistors (FETs) [3, 4, 5 ], chemical and biological sensors [6], as well as”
