Self-assembled ultrafine CsPbBr3 perovskite nanowires for polarized light detection

Solution-Grown CsPbBr3 Perovskite Single Crystals for Photon Detection

Controlling self-assembled perovskite-spinel nanostructures.

We report a discovery that self-assembled perovskite-spinel nanostructures can be controlled simply by selecting single-crystal substrates with different orientations. In a model BiFeO(3)-CoFe(2)O(4) system, a (001) substrate results in rectangular-shaped CoFe(2)O(4) nanopillars in a BiFeO(3) matrix; in contrast, a (111) substrate leads to triangular-shaped BiFeO(3) nanopillars in a CoFe(2)O(4)...

Self-assembled nanowires on semiconductor surfaces

A number of different families of nanowires which self-assemble on semiconductor surfaces have been identified in recent years. They are particularly interesting from the standpoint of nanoelectronics, which seeks non-lithographic ways of creating interconnects at the nanometre scale (though possibly for carrying signal rather than current), as well as from the standpoint of traditional materia...

Self-Assembled InAs Nanowires as Optical Reflectors

Subwavelength nanostructured surfaces are realized with self-assembled vertically-aligned InAs nanowires, and their functionalities as optical reflectors are investigated. In our system, polarization-resolved specular reflectance displays strong modulations as a function of incident photon energy and angle. An effective-medium model allows one to rationalize the experimental findings in the lon...

Post-processing techniques for locally self-assembled silicon nanowires

Post-processing techniques are applied after the integration and assembly of nanostructures and Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS) o realize integrated Nanoelectromechanical Systems (NEMS). Experimentation is focused specifically on the application of post-processing teps to a locally self-assembled micro-to-nano system comprising of suspended silicon nanowires between two MEMS bridges. Loca...
