A method for fabricating multi-component nanowires is disclosed, which can make multi-component nanowires used to realize a nanowire-based memory device by an electroplating process using a multi-component solution. The method for fabricating multi-component nanowires in accordance with the present invention includes the steps of: (a) preparing an anodized aluminum oxide nanotemplate having a plurality of pores; (b) forming an electrode layer on one surface of the anodized aluminum oxide nanotemplate; (c) injecting the anodized aluminum oxide nanotemplate in a predetermined multi-component solution and then growing multi-component nanowires through the pores of the anodized aluminum oxide nanotemplate by an electroplating process in which the anodized aluminum oxide nanotemplate is used as a cathode; and (d) removing the anodized aluminum oxide nanotemplate.
