Self-assembled nanowires are provided, comprising nanowires of a first crystalline composition formed on a substrate of a second crystalline composition. The two crystalline materials are characterized by an asymmetric lattice mismatch, in which in the interfacial plane between the two materials, the...http://www.google.es/patents/US6656573?utm_source=gb-gplus-sharePatente US6656573 - Method to grow self-assembled epitaxial nanowires
