Abstract

A novel type of 1D nanostructure with characteristics between those of a solid nanowire and a hollow nanotube, i.e. a peashell-like nanostructure comprising a 1D wire with periodically embedded hollow nanobubbles, is presented for the first time; as an example, MgO peashell-like nanostructures exhibit extraordinary dielectric and magnetization properties.
