摘要
Cu nanowires have been assembled from deposited nanoparticles at designated positions on Dow Cyclotene substrates, using a unidirectional sweeping action of atomic force microscope tips in contact mode. The nanowires are of controllable heights and widths, and adhere strongly to the substrate. These nanowires can be cut to desired lengths by unidirectionally sweeping the atomic force microscope tip across them.
