The structural stability and the elastic modulus of hexagonal ZnO nanowires and nanotubes are investigated using atomistic simulations based on the shell model. The ZnO nanowire with (10-10) facets is energetically more stable than that with (11-20). Our calculations indicate that the structural change of ZnO nanowires with (10-10) facets is sensitive to the diameter. With decreasing the diameter of ZnO nanowires, the unit-cell length is increased while the bond-length is reduced due to the change of surface atoms. Unlike the conventional layered nanotubes, the energetic stability of single crystalline ZnO nanotubes is related to the wall thickness. The potential energy of ZnO nanotubes with fixed outer and inner diameters decreases with increasing wall thickness while the nanotubes with same wall thickness are independent of the outer and inner diameters. The transformation of single crystalline ZnO nanotubes with double layer from wurtzite phase to graphitic suggests the possibility of wall-typed ZnO nanotubes. The size-dependent Young's modulus for ZnO nanowires and nanotubes is also calculated. The diameter and the wall thickness play a significant role in the Young's modulus of single crystalline ZnO nanowires and nanotubes, respectively.

One dimensional (1D) nanostructures, including nanowires, nanorods, nanobelts, and nanotubes, have been the focus of current research on nanotechnology because of their fundamental significance in chemistry, physics, materials science and engineering, and potential applications in nanoelectronics. We have synthesized Te-rich $Sb_xTe_{1-x}$ nanowires and nanotubes via thermal evaporation method under vapor-solid mechanism. The physical morphology and chemical composition of the fabricated nanowires and nanotubes were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX).

Bamboo-like Te nanotubes were synthesized via the galvanic displacement reaction of NiFe nanowires with Ni-rich and Fe-rich segments. The thick and thin components of the synthesized Te nanotubes were converted from the Ni-rich and Fe-rich segments in the NiFe nanowires respectively. The dimensions of the Te nanotubes were controlled by employing sacrificial NiFe nanowires with tailored dimensions as the template for the galvanic displacement reaction. The segment lengths of the Te nanotubes were found to be dependent on those of the sacrificial NiFe nanowires. The galvanic displacement reaction was characterized by analyzing the open circuit potential and the corrosion resistance.

We have investigated the structures of copper nanowires encapsulated in carbon nanotubes using a structural optimization process applied to the steepest descent method. The results showed that the stable morphology of the cylindrical ultrathin copper nanowires in carbon nanotubes is multishell packs consisted of coaxial cylindrical shells. As the diameter of copper nanotubes increased, the encapsulated copper nanowires have the face centered cubic structure as the bulk. Both the semiclassical orbits in a circle and the circular rolling of a triangular network can explain the structures of ultrathin multishell copper nanowires encapsulated in carbon nanotubes.

We propose new approaches to thin film transistor fabrication that use carbon nanotubes and semiconductor nanowires as active elements. These nanomaterials which are essentially studied in the context of the post CMOS era will certainly impact the active matrix display industry in the near future.

대기압 조건에서 고정층 상압 유통식 반응기를 사용하여 Pd(5)/SPK 촉매상에서 산소의 몰 비 변화에 따른 메탄의 열분해 반응으로부터 탄소 나노튜브 및 탄소 나노선을 제조하였으며, SEM과 TEM을 이용하여 분석하였다. $CH_4/O_2$의 몰 비가 1인 경우, 촉매층 지지대 표면상에 탄소가 거의 침적되지 않았으나, $CH_4/O_2$의 몰 비가 2인 경우에는 촉매층 지지대 표면상에 반응기를 봉쇄할 정도로 다량의 탄소가 침적되었다. 침적된 탄소를 SEM과 TEM을 통하여 분석한 결과 많은 수의 단일 벽 탄소 나노튜브와 탄소 나노선들이 만들어졌음을 확인할 수 있었다. 촉매 표면상에 침적된 탄소 나노튜브의 생성 메카니즘은 첨단성장방식이었고, 촉매 지지대 표면상에 만들어진 탄소 나노튜브 및 나노선들의 생성은 일정한 탄소 성장속도 벡터와 탄소 나노선의 링구조의 핵형성이 중요한 역할을 하였다. SPK 촉매 담체는 열 안정성이 우수하였으며, $N_2$ 흡착등온선은 중기공 세공이 잘 발달된 IV형이었다.

Cupric oxide (CuO) is a p-type semiconductor with band gap of ~1.7 eV and reported to be suitable for catalysis, lithium-copper oxide electrochemical cells, and gas sensors applications. The nanoparticles, plates and nanowires of CuO were found sensing to NO2, H2S and CO. In this work, we report about the comparison about hydrogen sensing of nano thin film and nanowires structured CuO deposited on single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). The thin film and nanowires are synthesized by deposition of Cu on different substrate followed by oxidation process. Nano thin films of CuO are deposited on thermally oxidized silicon substrate, whereas nanowires are synthesized by using a porous thin film of SWNTs as substrate. The hydrogen sensing properties of synthesized materials are investigated. The results showed that nanowires cupric oxide deposited on SWNTs showed higher sensitivity to hydrogen than those of nano thin film CuO did.

Ga-based semiconductor nanowires (GaN, GaP) were synthesized by the reaction of Ga metal and GaN/GaP powder with a $NH_3/Ar$ gas using thermal chemical vapor deposition. The field emission and emission stability under oxygen and argon environments were investigated. Field emission energy distributions of electrons from these nanowires revealed that field emission mechanism of the semiconductor nanowires were different from carbon nanotubes.

Amorphous $Al_2O_3$ nanotubes have been fabricated by utilizing the ZnO nanowires as template with wet etching method. ZnO nanowires synthesized by thermal evaporation are conformally coated with $Al_2O_3$ by atomic-layer deposition(ALD) method. The $Al_2O_3$-coated ZnO nanowires are of core-shell structure; ZnO core nanowires and $Al_2O_3$ shells. When the $ZnO/Al_2O_3$ core-shell structure is dipped in $H_3PO_4$ solution at $25^{\circ}C$ for a 6 min, the core ZnO materials are completely etched, and only $Al_2O_3$ nanotubes are remained. This nanotube fabrication is technically easier than others, and simply approachable. Transmission electron microscopy shows that the $Al_2O_3$ nanotubes have various thicknesses that can be controlled.

One-dimensional, nanomaterial field effect transistors (FET) are promising sensors for bio-molecule detection applications. In this paper, we review fabrication and characteristics of 1-D nanomaterial FET type biosensors. Materials such as single wall carbon nanotubes, Si nanowires, metal oxide nanowires and nanotubes, and conducting polymer nanowires have been widely investigated for biosensors, because of their high sensitivity to bio-substances, with some capable of detecting a single biomolecule. In particular, we focus on three important aspects of biosensors: alignment of nanomaterials for biosensors, surface modification of the nanostructures, and electrical detection mechanism of the 1-D nanomaterial sensors.
