At the time our paper was just finished, we noticed that a publication entitled "Rational Synthesis of Silicon nanowires" is mentioned in a routine check of SCI from CD-ROM Base (April-June Issue), but no more details could be found on that point; in any case, our results may be considered as original and completely independent from any other ones): Morales, A.M. and Lieber, C.M., Abstracts of Papers of Am.
