[Semiconductor] – A nanoscale gold butterfly can make its own semiconductor skin
23 février 2020
Hokkaido University researchers have devised a unique approach for making nanosized semiconductors on a metal surface. The details of the method were reported in the journal Nano Letters (« Localized ZnO Growth on a Gold Nanoantenna by Plasmon-Assisted Hydrothermal Synthesis ») and could further research into the fabrication of nanosized light and energy emitters.
