Synthesis and Post-growth Doping of Silicon Nanowires
نویسندگان
چکیده
High-quality silicon nanowires SiNWs were synthesized via a thermal evaporation method without the use of catalysts. Scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy showed that SiNWs were long and straight crystalline silicon with an oxide sheath. Field effect transistors were fabricated to investigate the electrical transport properties. Devices on as-grown material were p-channel with channel mobilities 1–10 cm2 V−1 s−1. Postgrowth vapor doping with bismuth converted these to n-channel behavior. © 2005 American Institute of Physics. DOI: 10.1063/1.2128070

Nanowires fine tunable fabrication by varying the concentration ratios, the etchant and the plating spices in metal-assisted chemical etching of silicon wafer.
The metal-assisted chemical etching (MACE) was used to synthesis silicon nanowires. The effect of etchant concentration, etching and chemical plating time and doping density on silicon nanowires length were investigated. It is held that the increasing of HF and H2O2 concentrations lead to etching rate increment and formation of wire-like structure. The results show that, the appropriate ratio o...

This paper shows that the reflectance in silicon nanowires (SiNWs) can be optimized as a function of the area of silicon substrate where the nanostructure growth. SiNWs were fabricated over four different areas of silicon substrates to study the size effects using electroless etching technique. Three different etching solution concentrations of silver nitrate (AgNO3) and hydroflu...

متن کاملMonolayer contact doping of silicon surfaces and nanowires using organophosphorus compounds.
Monolayer Contact Doping (MLCD) is a simple method for doping of surfaces and nanostructures(1). MLCD results in the formation of highly controlled, ultra shallow and sharp doping profiles at the nanometer scale. In MLCD process the dopant source is a monolayer containing dopant atoms. In this article a detailed procedure for surface doping of silicon substrate as well as silicon nanowires is d...
متن کاملSilicon Nanowires: Doping Dependent N- And P- Channel FET Behavior
The electrical transport properties of field effect transistor (FET) devices made of silicon nanowires (SiNWs) synthesized by pulsed laser vaporization (PLV) were studied. From as-grown PLV-SiNW FET, we found pchannel FET behavior with low conductance. To improve conductance, spin on glass (SOG) and vapor doping were used to dope phosphorus and indium into SiNW, respectively. From doping after ...
