Deterministic Patterning and Alignment of Tellurium Quantum Wires Using Nanoscale Templates.
Tellurium (Te) is an intriguing one-dimensional (1D) semiconductor that has recently attracted considerable interest as a p-type channel material. However, scalable synthesis methods have lacked control over the orientation and patterning of the Te atomic chains, thus limiting its practical use. Guided by theory, we ov...
