1. A nanowire antenna array device comprising:
a first electrode positioned across a second electrode, wherein an electrode gap separates the first electrode and the second electrode;
a magnetoelectric nanowire connected to the first electrode and the second electrode across the electrode gap without substrate clamping;
wherein the magnetoelectric nanowire comprises a piezoelectric material coupled with a magnetostrictive material;
wherein the piezoelectric material coupled with the magnetostrictive material comprises barium titanate coupled with cobalt ferrite; and
wherein the nanowire antenna array device receives or transmits electromagnetic waves through the magnetoelectric effect.
