In essence, it proves that electrons on a one - dimensional
semiconducting nanowire will have a quantum spin opposite to its momentum in a finite magnetic field.
By applying a magnetic field to
semiconducting nanowires laid across a superconductor, you can move electrons along these wires, creating two points in space that each mimic half an electron.
In the information technology world, nanoprinting could be used to achieve the controlled placement of catalytic seed particles for growing
semiconducting nanowires.
Berkeley Lab researchers using a bioinorganic hybrid approach to artificial photosynthesis have combined
semiconducting nanowires with select microbes to create a system that produces renewable molecular hydrogen and uses it to synthesize carbon dioxide into methane, the primary constituent of natural gas.
Semiconducting nanowires coupled to superconductors are crucial in proposals for inducing, detecting and controlling topological superconductivity and Majorana fermion bound states.
Scientists with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)'s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and the University of California (UC) Berkeley have created a hybrid system of
semiconducting nanowires and bacteria that mimics the natural photosynthetic process by which plants use the energy in sunlight to synthesize carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and water.

Nanowires for LEDs are made up of an inner core of gallium nitride (GaN) and a layer of indium - gallium - nitride (InGaN) on the outside, both of which are
semiconducting materials.
Each consisted of a plasmonic gold
nanowire atop a
semiconducting layer of titanium dioxide.
Superconducting
nanowire single - photon detectors (SNSPDs) are significantly better at photon detection efficiency (DE) compared to their
semiconducting counterparts, and have enabled many breakthrough applications in quantum...
