A hierarchical structure of one-dimensional CeO2/SnO2 core–shell nanowires on a three-dimensional porous disk (namely the “nanowire forest”) could maximize the reaction surface area and avoid coarsening during hydrogen generation.

The semiconductor nanowire architecture provides opportunities for non-planar electronics and optoelectronics arising from its unique geometry. This structure gives rise to a large surface area-to-volume ratio and therefore understanding the effect of nanowire surfaces on nanowire optoelectronic properties is necessary for engineering related devices. We present a systematic study of the non-uniform optical properties of Au-catalyzed GaAs/AlGaAs core–shell nanowires introduced by changes in the sidewall faceting. Significant variation in intra-wire photoluminescence (PL) intensity and PL lifetime (τPL) was observed along the nanowire axis, which was strongly correlated with the variation of sidewall facets from {112} to {110} from base to tip. Faster recombination occurred in the vicinity of {112}-oriented GaAs/AlGaAs interfaces. An alternative nanowire heterostructure, the radial quantum well tube consisting of a GaAs layer sandwiched between two AlGaAs barrier layers, is proposed and demonstrates superior uniformity of PL emission along the entire length of nanowires. The results emphasize the significance of nanowire facets and provide important insights for nanowire device design.

In this short review, we report the facile fabrication of various interesting multi-component nanostructures including arrays of core-shell nanowires, multiwall nanotubes, segmented nanowires and multilayer stacked nanodisks, using anodized alumina membrane (AAM). We demonstrate that metallic (Cu, Ni and Au) and polymeric (PPV and PPy) one-dimensional (1D) arrays can be readily prepared by electrochemical deposition into the AAM. By optimizing the experimental design and conditions, we developed techniques to produce various multi-component nanostructures such as polymer/metal or metal/metal core-shell nanowires as well as nanotubes, with reasonably good control over both the length and the shell thickness of the nanostructures. Furthermore, we extend this method to make segmented nanowires as well as multilayer stacked nanodisks. Selective functionalization of the segmented nanowires resulted in end-on or side-on adhesion of nanowires during assembly. We illustrate the possibility of utilizing these 1D arrays to present patterns with luminescent and/or magnetic properties at this length scale.
