Gold Nanobridge Stabilized by Surface Structure
Abstract
We formed gold nanowires using electron-beam irradiation in an ultrahigh vacuum electron microscope. The dimensions of these nanowires were 0.8--3 nm in thickness and 5--10 nm in length. The nanowires showed lasting stability. We propose a structure model for a nanowire with a thickness of 2 nm. The model is represented by a hexagonal prism; the surface layer of the prism has a hexagonal-close-packed (hcp) lattice, and the core of the prism has a face-centered-cubic structure. The nanowire is considered to be stabilized by the hcp lattices of the surfaces.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
