Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Nanotechnology
  • Optoelectronics

Background:

  • Traditional methods for producing metal nanowires are often costly and time-consuming.
  • Integrating metallic nanowires into functional devices requires scalable and efficient fabrication techniques.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a high-throughput and scalable method for producing metal nanowires embedded in glass fibers.
  • To demonstrate the fabrication of centimetre-long gold nanowires within silicate glass fibers in a single step.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing thin film properties and planar microfabrication patterning techniques.
  • Employing a hybrid process for single nanowire and nanowire array fabrication within a preform material.
  • Performing a single fiber draw to embed nanowires in glass.

Main Results:

  • Successfully produced centimetre-long gold nanowires (aspect ratio >10^4) embedded in silicate glass fibers.
  • Demonstrated that the embedded nanowires retain relatively high electrical conductivity after release from the glass matrix.
  • Showcased the ability to combine materials with different thermal properties for nanostructure fabrication.

Conclusions:

  • The presented hybrid fabrication method offers a scalable and cost-effective alternative for producing metal nanowires.
  • This technique facilitates the mass manufacturing of metallic nanowires for plasmonics and nonlinear optics.
  • Enables the integration of functional multimaterial structures for fiberised optoelectronic devices.
