Abstract
One-dimensional (1D) nanostructures such as nanotubes and nanowires have attracted considerable attention in recent years due to their promise of applications in sensing and materials reinforcement. Over the past decade various 1D nanostructures has been synthesized. To develop applications with these nanostructures, it is important to first understand their fundamental properties. Our work focused on characterizing the mechanical properties of these novel 1D nanostructures.
