ABSTRACT:
A fine wire is fabricated by supplying metal atoms to one row or a plurality of rows formed by extraction of terminated atoms or molecules at the surface of a substrate made non-conductive by terminating all dangling bonds on the surface thereof with atoms or molecules. The conductivity of the fine wire can be attained by supplying metal atoms larger in number to that required for just terminating dangling bonds formed by extraction of terminated atoms or molecules.
