In-situ electrochemical fabrication of natural contacts on single nanowires
arXiv:cond-mat/0310162 · doi:10.1063/1.1644619
Abstract
We report a template-based in-situ electrochemical method for fabricating natural electric contacts on single nanowires using a pair of cross-patterned electrodes. Such electric contacts are highly stable upon thermal cycling between room temperature and milli-Kelvin temperatures. Direct imaging of the single-nanowire contacts using scanning electron microscopy is also demonstrated.
