Raman and AFM Characterization of Au and Cu Nanorod and Nanowire Arrays

摘要

Resently metal nanowires (nanorods) have aroused tremendous interest because of their novel properties and potential applcations is wide fields`(1), Many two-dimensional naowire arrays of seimconductors and metals iwth different diameter and length have been made by using template synthesis method. To characterize the novel optical, electronic and magnetic properties of these materials, UV-Vis and fluorescence spectroscopies are two of the most wildly used methods ~(2,3).
