Fabrication of Single Crystalline Metal Oxide Nanowires Based on Spatial Selectivity of Molecules

Here we report our recent progress as to single crystalline metal oxide nanowires towards the nano-device applications. As the basis of such fundamental science, we focus on (1) formation technology of highly crystalline nanowires, (2) evaluation technology of single nanowire physical properties, and (3) control of spatial nanowire positions. Especially, I focus on our recent progress of our research group, which are related to single crystalline nanowires comprised of functional metal oxide materials and their memristive devices.
