Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="adma201503289-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>A novel high‐resolution nanowire fabrication method</bold> is developed by thin‐film patterning using a spatially modulated femtosecond laser pulse. Deep subwavelength (≈1/13 of the laser wavelength) and high conductivity (≈1/4 of the bulk gold) nanowires are fabricated in the open air without using masks, which offers a single‐step arbitrary direct patterning approach for electronics, plasmonics, and optoelectronics nanodevices. <graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgkv860msn" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></p> </abstract>
