Abstract
A method of manufacturing a nanowire filament includes forming and fusing actions. In a forming action, close proximity conductors are formed. In another forming action, a junction oxide is formed between the close proximity conductors. In a fusing action, a nanowire filament is fused between the close proximity conductors, through the junction oxide. A circuit is also provided, having first and second close proximity conductors, and a nanowire filament fused between the close proximity conductors.
