Fabrication of ultrahigh-density nanowires by electrochemical nanolithography

<p>Abstract</p> <p>An approach has been developed to produce silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) rapidly on semiconductor wafers using electrochemical deposition. The closely packed AgNPs have a density of up to 1.4 &#215; 10<sup>11 </sup>cm<sup>-2 </sup>with g...
