Abstract
Electrodes made from metallic material are formed on a layer of dielectric material. A bottom layer of at least one of the electrodes constitutes a catalyst material in direct contact with the layer of dielectric material. Nanowires are grown by means of the catalyst, between the electrodes, parallel to the layer of dielectric material. The nanowires connecting the two electrodes are then made from single-crystal semi-conductor material and in contact with the layer of dielectric material.
