Research Update: Synthesis, properties, and applications of ultrathin metallic nanowires and associated heterostructures

The properties of one-dimensional (1D) nanostructured materials can change considerably and unexpectedly, when their diameters attain the “ultrathin” level, i.e., below 10 nm. Herein, we have summarized recent developments associated with not only the synthesis but also more importantly, the applica...
