ABSTRACT:
This disclosure relates to a system and method for creating nanowires. A nanowire can be created by exposing layers of material in a superlattice and dissolving and transferring material from edges of the exposed layers onto a substrate. The nanowire can also be created by exposing layers of material in a superlattice and depositing material onto edges of the exposed layers.
