Novel fabrication and enhanced photosensitivity of selenium filament arrays by optical-fiber thermal drawing

We report break-up of cylindrical shell into well-ordered filament arrays by optical-fiber thermal drawing. Enhanced photosensitivity of centimeter-long crystalline-Se nano-filaments is observed and the mechanism is discussed. This work paves a way to in-fiber nanodevices.
