Abstract

We introduce two novel hybrid nanofabrication methods for the facile synthesis and integration of functional nanomaterials towards highly sensitive physical and chemical sensors. The first method is thermally-driven local synthesis of metal oxide nanostructures where localized temperature field enhances mass transport of precursor materials and endothermal reaction at selected regions. The second method is template-based synthesis of metal nanotubes based on heterogeneous nucleation of metal atoms along sacrificial metal oxide nanowire templates and in-situ dissolution of templates.
