Nanowires are filamentary crystals with a tailored diameter of nanoscale dimensions. This particular shape and size renders them particularly interesting for a variety of applications ranging from optoelectronics, electronics, biosensors and energy harvesting. In this seminar I will discuss growth of high quality III-V nanowires by molecular beam epitaxy as well as some of the novel properties that we have discovered.
