Pt nanoparticle catalysts are used to synthesize Si nanowires . The standard deviations of the starting colloid and the resulting wire diameters are essentially the same, whereas the wires were 22 % larger than the particles. The figure shows current–voltage plots of a silicon nanowire different gate voltages.
