New low-cost technique converts bulk alloys to oxide nanowires

Sunday, January 22, 2017 - 17:11 in Physics & Chemistry

A simple technique for producing oxide nanowires directly from bulk materials could dramatically lower the cost of producing the one-dimensional nanostructures. That could open the door for a broad range of uses in lightweight structural composites, advanced sensors, electronic devices -- and thermally stable and strong battery membranes able to withstand temperatures of more than 1,000 degrees Celsius.
