Abstract

The development of NW-based materials has led to breakthrough achievements with rapid expanding impact in all areas of nanotechnology, including but not limited to, electronics, optoelectronics, energy science, sensors and the life sciences. In spite of the progresses discussed in this book, substantial room still exists for NW research and development, and the opportunities may be realized by exquisite control of NW synthesis and assembly, as well as large scale production. In this chapter, we will summarize the basic NW research and applications introduced in this book, and challenges and exciting future opportunities will be discussed.
