The Discovery of a new nanowire assembly process could enable more powerful computer chips

A team of researchers in Oxford University's Department of Materials led by Harish Bhaskaran, Professor of Applied Nanomaterials, describe a breakthrough approach to pick up single nanowires from the growth substrate and place them on virtually any platform with sub-micron accuracy.

The innovative method uses novel tools, including ultra-thin filaments of PET with tapered nanoscale tips that are used to pick up individual nanowires.
