| dc.description | This review article discusses and compares various techniques for fabricating metal nanowires. We begin by defining what we mean by a nanowire, and why such nanostructures are of scientific and technological interest. We then present different fabrication methodologies, describing in some detail the advantages of each. "Top-down" techniques discussed include: electron beam lithography; scanned probe lithography; step-edge and molecular beam epitaxy templating; and nanotube templating. "Bottom-up" methodologies covered include: electrodeposition into etched porous media; direct chemical synthesis; step-edge decoration; and strain-mediated self-assembly. We conclude by summarizing our observations and briefly discuss the future of metal nanowire fabrication. | |
