A Special Manufacture of Nanowires with High Precision and its Concrete Implement

Abstract:

This paper describes a way to realize the manufacture of nanowires in detail, which would be discussed mainly on the implement methods as well as the specific craft. Accounting for the cost, this way relied relative fewer on the high-precision photoetching machine, while it took use of the excellent surface of Si and SiO2, applying oxidation to diminish the width of these wires[1]. The paper would cover some regulations of conditions and concrete steps to present a whole technical process.
