Correlating Nanorod Structure with Experimentally Measured and Theoretically Predicted Surface Plasmon Resonance
Abrin L. Schmucker,Nadine Harris,Matthew J. Banholzer,Martin G. Blaber,Kyle D. Osberg,George C. Schatz,Chad A. Mirkin +6 more
TL;DR: The extinction spectra of Au nanorods electrochemically synthesized using anodic aluminum oxide templates are reported and the dependence of the dipole plasmon wavelength on both rod length and diameter is determined, and an equation for predicting longitudinal dipole resonance wavelength for nanorod dimensions beyond the quasistatic limit is derived.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solvothermal/hydrothermal route to semiconductor nanowires
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an integrated discussion of nanowire growth, mainly from four aspects in the solvothermal/hydrothermal process, including materials with highly anisotropic crystal structures, coordination directing/mixed solvents, surfactants/capping reagents, and reaction at relatively high temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Catalyst-free growth of single-crystal silicon and germanium nanowires.
Byung-Sung Kim,Tae-Woong Koo,Jae-Hyun Lee,Duk Soo Kim,Young Chai Jung,Sungwoo Hwang,Byoung Lyong Choi,Eun-Kyung Lee,Jong Min Kim,Dongmok Whang +9 more
TL;DR: Metal-free synthesis of high-density single-crystal elementary semiconductor nanowires with tunable electrical conductivities and systematic diameter control with narrow size distributions is reported, offering a method to eliminate potential metal catalyst contamination.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synergism of C5N six-membered ring and vapor-liquid-solid growth of CNx nanotubes with pyridine precursor
TL;DR: A synergism mechanism of C(5)N-six-membered-ring-based growth through surface diffusion and vapor-liquid-solid growth through bulk diffusion was accordingly deduced and schematically presented and could help understand the CN(x)()-nanotube-related experimental phenomena in the literature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-organized growth of GaAs/InAs heterostructure nanocylinders by organometallic vapor phase epitaxy
TL;DR: In this article, free-standing GaAs InAs heterostructure wires as thin as 20 nm and as long as 1 μm have been formed by vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) growth during organometallic vapor phase epitaxy.

The influence of dislocations on crystal growth
TL;DR: In fact, the existence of a critical finite supersaturation for further growth has only been established for a few materials, and then for individual faces of individual crystals, being different from case to case as discussed by the authors.

Epitaxial Silicon Films by the Hydrogen Reduction of SiCl4
TL;DR: In this article, the basic chemistry and reaction kinetics pertinent to the growth of these films are discussed in detail in detail, including the hydrogen reduction of silicon tetrachloride appropriately doped with or.
