Nanowires

Nanowires are extremely thin, wire-like structures with diameters on the nanometer scale, which is one billionth of a meter. They are made from various materials, including metals and semiconductors, and possess unique electrical, optical, and mechanical properties due to their tiny size. These characteristics make nanowires useful in various applications, such as electronics, sensors, and renewable energy technologies like solar cells. Their ability to efficiently conduct electricity at such small scales opens up possibilities for faster and more efficient devices in the future.
