Harvard scientists bend nanowires into 2-D and 3-D structures
New 'stereocenters' introduce triangular joints into otherwise linear nanomaterials
27-Oct-2009 -
Taking nanomaterials to a new level of structural complexity, scientists have determined how to introduce kinks into arrow-straight nanowires, transforming them into zigzagging two- and three-dimensional structures with correspondingly advanced functions.
