Nanofibers: electrospinning nanotechnology. (a) Scheme demonstrating principle of electrospinning technology and electrospinning apparatus; (b) Electrospun tissue engineered scaffold (scanning electron microscopy), (c) Scheme demonstrating different diverse classes of nanofibers that can be obtained by electrospinning. Shown are, from left to right, solid, core-shell, hollow, porous, composite, decorated, spiral, and branched nanofibers [3].
