In-situ nano-interconnected circuit devices and method for making the same

摘要

A circuit device is disclosed comprising at least two circuit layers interconnected with a plurality of substantially equi-length nanowires disposed therebetween. The nanowires may comprise composites, e.g., having a heterojunction present along the length thereof, to provide for a variety of device applications. Also disclosed is a method for making the circuit device comprising growing a plurality of nanowires in-situ on at least one circuit substrate and then interconnecting the nanowires to a mating substrate.
