Nano wire Nano wire can have insulating, semiconductor or metal properties . Insulators do not withstand electrical charges, while metals have very good electrical charges. The semiconductors are located between the two and are charged under suitable conditions. By placing the semiconductor wires in the proper configuration, transistors can be made that act either as switches or amplifiers . Some of the interesting and anti-flexible properties of nanowires are due to their small scale.
Some of the nanowires conducting ballistic are . In ordinary conductors, electrons collide with atoms in the conductive material. This causes the electrons to slow down as they move, generating heat as a by-product. In ballistic conductors, electrons can pass through a conductor without collision. Nanowires can conduct electricity efficiently without generating intense heat. By reducing the bulk volume to the size of nanoparticles, its melting point decreases, because when you reduce each particle to the nanoscale, there is a significant increase in the surface-to-volume ratio. The structure and replication of nanowires approach from top to bottom and the approach of bottom-up . A top-down approach literally means that you consume a lot of the material you want to use for the nanowires and engrave until you get the right size. A bottom-up approach is an assembly process in which smaller particles are joined to a larger structure. Nanotransistors are created using nanowires . And increasing the resistance of nanowires is directly related to the efficiency and durability of nanotransistors. And nano-ion transistors work better than current graphene nano-transistors.
Conclusion :
Nanowires have a structure that has an amazing length to width ratio . Nanowires are very thin - it is possible to create nanowires with a diameter of only one nanometer, nanowires are used to create the smallest transistor (nanotransistors).
