Semiconductor nanowires and nanobelts are emerging as one of the most powerful and diverse classes of functional nanoMaterials. In this issue of MRS Bulletin, several leaders in the field highlight the underlying materials science of nanowires, device functions achievable with these materials, and developing applications in electronics and at the interface with biology.
Also in this issue is a technical feature “The Mechanics and Physics of Defect Nucleation” by Ju Li (Ohio State University), recipient of the 2006 MRS Outstanding Young Investigator Award. We invite you to view the introductory article for this issue, "Functional Nanowires" by Charles M. Lieber and Zhong Lin Wang, Guest Editors.
