We report the synthesis of free-standing MnSi nanowires via a vapor transport method with no catalyst and measurements of their electrical and magnetic properties for the first time. The single-crystalline MnSi nanowire ensemble with a simple cubic (B20) crystal structure shows itinerant helimagnetic properties with a T(c) of about 30 K. A single MnSi nanowire device was fabricated by a new method using photolithography and a nanomanipulator that produces good ohmic contacts. The single-nanowire device measurements provide large (20%) negative magnetoresistance and very low electrical resistivity of 544 microOmegacm for the MnSi nanowire.
