Investigations of bismuth nanowires |
|
It has been several years since the International Laboratory of High Magnetic Fields and Low Temperatures started investigating nanowires of bismuth (in the form of single crystalline nanowires) at temperatures 1.5-300 K and in high magnetic fields (up to 14 T). These nanowires have diameter between 30 nm and 200 nm and have been obtained via crystallization of bismuth liquid in thin glass capillaries.
