Abstract
Highlights
Crystalline silicon (c-Si) is one of the most mature and reliable materials for high-performance electronic devices and has garnered widespread attention in the field of flexible electronics.
This article examines the detailed transition enabled by geometry engineering from "3D bulk materials" to "2D thin films," and ultimately to "1D nanowires," highlighting the advancements and challenges in enhancing the flexibility and mechanical properties of c-Si.
We emphasize the forefront applications of silicon nanowires in wearable electronics and healthcare, aiming to accelerate the rapid development of c-Si within the realm of flexible electronics.
期刊介绍:
Nano-Micro Letters is a peer-reviewed, international, interdisciplinary, and open-access journal published under the SpringerOpen brand.
Nano-Micro Letters focuses on the science, experiments, engineering, technologies, and applications of nano- or microscale structures and systems in various fields such as physics, chemistry, biology, material science, and pharmacy.It also explores the expanding interfaces between these fields.
Nano-Micro Letters particularly emphasizes the bottom-up approach in the length scale from nano to micro. This approach is crucial for achieving industrial applications in nanotechnology, as it involves the assembly, modification, and control of nanostructures on a microscale.
