A method for manufacturing a nanowire is provided. A solvent is heated. A catalyst is added to the solvent. A metal compound is added to the solvent to form a metal nanowire. The metal nanowire is refined. In the refining of the metal nanowire, the catalyst and a refinement material to converting an insoluble material generated by the catalyst into a soluble material may be added to the solvent. The catalyst may include NaCl and at least one selected from the group consisting of Mg, K, Zn, Fe, se, Mn, P, Br and I.
