Formation of Gold Nanowires on MgO Surfaces
Abstract
Gold nanowires were fabricated on the stepped MgO (100) surfaces. The stepped MgO (100) surfaces were produced by polishing (100) surfaces at an inclined angle approx. 1 deg. toward a 110 direction. An atomic force microscope image indicates that gold nanowires have grown at the steps on MgO (100) surface with a height of ^ 2 nm and a width of ^ 60 nm.
