Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="smll201470053-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>On page 1771, B. J. Wiley and co‐workers report that removal of ethylenediamine from a copper nanowire synthesis leads to the rapid formation of Cu₂O octahedra. These Cu₂O octahedra can be used as seeds in a synthesis to control nanowire aspect ratio. Transparent conducting films are made from nanowires to examine the effect of nanowire aspect ratio on the film performance. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgh54qww" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
