Abstract :
In the past decade ZnO nanowires have been the key enabling material for demonstrating novel electronics components in the field of piezotronics and in the first realization of a nanogenerator. What are the materials that will be crucial in demonstrating even more novel devices in future years? We propose the use of both core shell nanowires and graphene as key enablers of new functionalities.
