“…NWs synthesized from direct band gap semiconductors have shown tremendous potential for assembling nanophotonic devices for the generation, waveguiding, and detection of light at the nanoscale. A variety of semiconductor NWs have been fabricated using VLS and electrochemical deposition techniques from materials including ZnO [109], ZnS [110], GaN [111], CdS [56,[112][113][114][115][116][117], CdSe [61,[118][119][120][121][122], CdO [123], ZnSe [124], InP [125], GaAs [126], and Se [127].…”

One-dimensional nanowires (NWs) have attracted considerable attention in recent years because of their novel physical properties and potential applications as interconnects in nanometre-scale electronics. NWs have potential applications in nanoscale electronics, optoelectronics, photonics, sensors, and solar cells due to their unique electrical, chemical, and optical properties. Several chemical and physical methods are commonly used to produce NWs. Among them, electrochemical synthesis and vapour-liquid-solid (VLS) methods to produce NWs have become popular among scientific workers due to a number of advantages. Synthesis of NWs using anodic alumina and polymer templates in an electrochemical cell has been described in detail as investigated in our laboratory. Characterization of metal and semiconductor NWs has been accomplished using scanning electron microscope (SEM), field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM), high resolution transmission microscope (HRTEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX). Morphology of NWs has been revealed by SEM, structure by TEM, crystallinity by XRD and chemical composition by EDAX. I-V characteristics of copper and semiconductor NWs were recorded in-situ, as grown in pores of anodic alumina template, using Dual Source Meter (Keithley Model 4200 SCS) with platinum probes for contacts. Resonating tunneling diode (RTD) characteristics of fabricated NWs have been investigated. Bulk production of Copper NWs has been described by seed growth technique. Applications of NWs are not covered in any detail under this review. Table of Contents

“…Therefore, investigations on the synthesis procedures of inorganic salts such as lead oxalate nanoparticles are necessary to produce their powders with controlled particle size, shape, and size distribution [8,9]. Several methods currently have been applied to synthesize inorganic salts nanoparticles such as hydrothermal synthesis [10,11], chemical precipitation [12], template synthesis [13,14], sol-gel [15], emulsion system [16], combustion technique [17], micronization via supercritical fluids technology [18,19], electrochemical processes [20,21], and ultrasonic assisted synthesis [22]. Among these methods, in this study, the chemical precipitation method with a semi-batch reactor was used; because this technique is relatively simple to obtain the particles in powder form and allows us to control the morphology of the product particles [23,24].…”

Trigonal selenium (t-Se) nanowires were fabricated via a facile solution-phase approach at room temperature. Time-dependent experiments were designed to explore the mechanism of the transition of a-Se to t-Se both in solution and in solid phases. It was found that the extended spiral chains of selenium atoms in the trigonal phase provided a natural template to define and guide the growth direction. The transition of a-Se to t-Se nanowire can happen not only in a solid-solution-solid process, but also in a solid to solid process. The synthesis method will provide a new approach for research on its performance.
