N2 - We study to what extent it is possible to generalise Berkovits' pure-spinor construction in d ≤ 10 to lower dimensions. Using a suitable definition of a ''pure'' spinor in d ≤ 4,6, we propose models analogous to the d ≤ 10 pure-spinor superstring in these dimensions. Similar models in d ≤ 2,3 are also briefly discussed.
