Description
Summary:Nanowires have garnered considerable attention in photonics and optoelectronics due to their unique features. Owing to the large surface area and significant potential of usage as a resonator and waveguide in photonic integrated circuits (PICs), nanowires have been applied in many research areas in nanophotonics. To enhance the properties of light emitting materials, the hybrid of nanowires and 2D materials has been deployed in many papers. This paper summarises recent studies on the application of various types of nanowires in photonics and optoelectronics, as well as the combination of nanowires and 2D materials. This review article introduces nanowires that act as resonators or/and waveguides to increase the performance of 2D materials used in PICs for light enhancement and guiding. Moreover, the review lays out the hybrid of nanowires and 2D materials that have been studied in the field of optoelectronics. The hybridization of nanowires and 2D materials for photonics and optoelectronics is discussed in this review for the outlook of future studies.
