Erbium Emission from Nanoengineered Silicon Surface

TL;DR: Optically active SiOx nanowires were grown on silicon by ion-implanting it with metallic impurities and annealed at 1100 °C in an argon ambient as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

From shelled Ge nanowires to SiC nanotubes

TL;DR: Shelled germanium nanowires up to 100 nm in diameter and several micrometers in length were prepared by low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) of tris(trimethylsilyl)germane (SiMe(3))(3)GeH.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemical toxicity detection using quantum dot encoded E. coli cells

TL;DR: A facile optical strategy that enables rapid and real-time cytotoxicity screening of potentially hazardous chemicals, such as new drugs that lead to ROS generation, is demonstrated.
Book ChapterDOI

The Selective Growth of Silicon Nanowires and Their Optical Activation

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors showed that 1D semiconducting nanowires possess some very unique properties such as quantum confinement effects, surface sensitivity, intrinsically miniaturized dimensions, and low leakage currents which make them attractive as building blocks for functional nanosystems and next generation electronics.

Chemical route for Si/C coated germanium nanowires

TL;DR: In this paper, the formation of shelled germanium nanowires is discussed in the course of low pressure CVD of tris(trimethylsilyl)germane (SiCH3)3GeH leading to formation of the wires, which consist of a crystalline Ge core surrounded by a two-layer jacket.
