Novel arrays of nanowires made of semi-metallic Bismuth (Bi) is disclosed made by unique electrodeposition techniques. Because of the unusual electronic properties of the semi-metallic Bi and the nanowire geometry, strong finite size effects in transport properties are achieved. In addition, very large...http://www.google.es/patents/US6187165?utm_source=gb-gplus-sharePatente US6187165 - Arrays of semi-metallic bismuth nanowires and fabrication techniques therefor
