Control of Thickness and Orientation of Solution-Grown Silicon Nanowires
TL;DR: Bulk quantities of defect-free silicon nanowires with nearly uniform diameters were grown to a length of several micrometers with a supercritical fluid solution-phase approach, and visible photoluminescence due to quantum confinement effects was observed, as were discrete optical transitions in the ultraviolet-visible absorbance spectra.
Journal ArticleDOI
Highly luminescent silicon nanocrystals with discrete optical transitions.
Justin D. Holmes,Kirk J. Ziegler,R. Christopher Doty,Lindsay E. Pell,and Keith P. Johnston,Brian A. Korgel +5 more
TL;DR: A new synthetic method was developed to produce robust, highly crystalline, organic-monolayer passivated silicon (Si) nanocrystals in a supercritical fluid by thermally degrading the Si precursor in the presence of octanol.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis and applications of one-dimensional semiconductors
Sven Barth,Sven Barth,Francisco Hernandez-Ramirez,Justin D. Holmes,Justin D. Holmes,Albert Romano-Rodriguez +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of synthetic approaches for growing high aspect-ratio semiconductors from bottom-up techniques, such as crystal structure governed nucleation, metal-promoted vapour phase and solution growth, formation in non-metal seeded gas-phase processes, structure directing templates and electrospinning, is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Semiconductor Nanowire Fabrication by Bottom-Up and Top-Down Paradigms
TL;DR: In this article, a range of routes to semiconductor nanowire production have opened up as a result of advances in nanowires fabrication techniques over the last number of decades.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluating the performance of nanostructured materials as lithium-ion battery electrodes
TL;DR: In this article, the authors highlight a number of significant gains in the development of nanostructured lithium-ion battery architectures (both anode and cathode), as drivers of potential next-generation electrochemical energy storage devices.
