Diameter-dependent electronic transport properties of Au-catalyst/Ge-nanowire Schottky diodes.
We present electronic transport measurements in individual Au-catalyst/Ge-nanowire interfaces demonstrating the presence of a Schottky barrier. Surprisingly, the small-bias conductance density increases with decreasing diameter. Theoretical calculations suggest that this effect arises because electron-hole recombination in the depletion region is the dominant charge transport mechanism, with a ...
متن کاملLedge-flow-controlled catalyst interface dynamics during Si nanowire growth.
Self-assembled nanowires offer the prospect of accurate and scalable device engineering at an atomistic scale for applications in electronics, photonics and biology. However, deterministic nanowire growth and the control of dopant profiles and heterostructures are limited by an incomplete understanding of the role of commonly used catalysts and specifically of their interface dynamics. Although...
متن کاملDiameter-Controlled Vapor-Solid Epitaxial Growth and Properties of Aligned ZnO Nanowire Arrays
A facile, template-free method was used to grow large areas of well-aligned ZnO nanowire arrays on amorphous SiO2 substrates. The arrays are composed of vertically aligned, single-crystalline, wurtzitic [001] ZnO nanowires whose diameters were easily controlled by growth temperature, adjusted by changing the distance between the substrate and the precursor material in the growth chamber. A vapo...

متن کاملCatalyst shape engineering for anisotropic cross-sectioned nanowire growth
The ability to engineer material properties at the nanoscale is a crucial prerequisite for nanotechnology. Hereunder, we suggest and demonstrate a novel approach to realize non-hemispherically shaped nanowire catalysts, subsequently used to grow InP nanowires with a cross section anisotropy ratio of up to 1:1.8. Gold was deposited inside high aspect ratio nanotrenches in a 5 nm thick SiNx selec...
