Abstract:
A method for distinguishing semiconducting nanowires from metallic nanowires is related and including: applying nanowires on a substrate; making a metal electrode on the substrate and electrically connected to the nanowires; taking a SEM image of the nanowires and the metal electrode, wherein the SEM image comprises light segments, and each light segment corresponds to one nanowire; and comparing length of each light segment with length of corresponding one nanowire, when the first length is same as the second length, the corresponding one nanowires is a metallic nanowire; when the first length is shorter than the second length, the corresponding one nanowire is a semiconducting nanowire.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for distinguishing semiconducting nanowires from metallic nanowires, comprising:\n applying a plurality of nanowires on a surface of a substrate; making a metal electrode on the surface of the substrate, wherein the metal electrode is electrically connected to the plurality of nanowires; taking a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) image of both the plurality of nanowires and the metal electrode, wherein the SEM image comprises a plurality of light segments, and each of the plurality of light segments corresponds to one of the plurality of nanowires; and comparing a first length of each of the plurality of light segments with a second length of corresponding one of the plurality of nanowires, when the first length of one of the plurality of light segments is same as the second length of the corresponding one of the plurality of nanowires, the corresponding one of the plurality of nanowires is a metallic nanowire; when the first length of one of the plurality of light segments is shorter than the second length of the corresponding one of the plurality of nanowires, the corresponding one of the plurality of nanowires is a semiconducting nanowire.
