Abstract
The electronic behavior of Ni nanowires in an oriented mesoporous silica thin film was reported. The hybrid film was prepared using a facile method of airflow-induced mesopore orientation from silica sol solution containing Ni2+ cation, followed by H2 reduction. Because of the confinement effect, the Ni nanowires were aligned in the oriented mesochannels, which resulted in anisotropic electronic responses. Such a property would be of great importance in the design of nanodevices for advanced photoelectric applications.
