Creating Ultra-Thin Nanowires
ChE Professor Elizabeth Podlaha-Murphy's research was featured in Nano Letters for her article on "Coupled, Simultaneous Displacement and Dealloying Reactions into Fe-Ni-Co Nanowires for Thinning Nanowire Segments". The work describes a novel electrochemical method to create ultra-thin nanowires that could not be done by a chemical synthesis route and is done by a practical method that uses inexpensive and commercially available templates.
