Diamond Nanowires for Advanced UV Detection Applications

Diamond nanowires exhibit exceptional properties such as a wide bandgap, high hardness, and thermal conductivity, making them ideal for various applications. By etching diamond films laterally or vertically, we can generate nanowires in aligned arrays or random orientations. These nanowires can be integrated with metal contacts to function as ultraviolet (UV) sensors, high-speed, high-power FETs, field emission sources, and other advanced devices. Research conducted by experts from Cornell University and Brown University highlights the innovative applications of these nanowires in nanoscale systems.

  1. Diamond Nanowires for UV Detection Diamond nanowires are useful for a number of different applications, due to the unique properties of diamond, including wide bandgap and extreme hardness and thermal conductivity. By etching diamond films laterally or vertically, nanowires can be produced in a parallel array or in random positions. After suitable contacts are made, the nanowires can be used as UV sensors, high-speed high-power FETs, field emission sources or other devices. Daniel C.
