Method for the Assembly of Nanowire Interconnects

Our researchers have invented  a method for the synthesis of nanowires in a silicon nanoporous template by electrode position, and a novel technique for the integration of nanowires to transduction surfaces. 

The present technology provides a method for the synthesis of nanowires in a silicon nanoporous template by electrode position, and a novel technique for the integration of nanowires to transduction surfaces. Thereby providing a generic, high density, reconfigurable and low cost alternative to conventional packaging schemes. 

• Ability to easily control the size and shape and morphology of nanowires
• Elegant alternative to molecular beam epitaxy and microlithography
• High density, reconfigurable and low cost
• Synthesis of long wires (>100 microns)
• Capable of large scale assembly compared to microfluidics
