Electron tomography and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy were used to characterize the unique three-dimensional (3D) structures of twinned Zn(3)P(2) (tetragonal) and InAs (zinc blende) nanowires synthesized by the vapor transport method. The Zn(3)P(2) nanowires adopt a unique superlattice structure that
