Site-controlled vertical growth of InP nanowires by self-catalyzed VLS mode

摘要

Semiconductor nanowires offer the possibility of enhancing the degree of freedom for 3D integration andenduring large lattice mismatch for breaking the limitation of material combination. Site-controlled growth ofnanowires is critically important from the practical application point of view. Here we report systematic study onvertical growth of site-controlled InP nanowires by self-catalyzed vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) mode.
