Stopping and Resuming at Will the Growth of GaAs Nanowires
Giacomo Priante,S. Ambrosini,Vladimir G. Dubrovskii,Vladimir G. Dubrovskii,A. Franciosi,Silvia Rubini +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the growth and regrowth processes of GaAs nanowires are jointly described by an analytical model that can reproduce the observed experimental time dependence of nanowire length and diameter.

Growth of Crystalline Cu2S Nanowire Arrays on Copper Surface: Effect of Copper Surface Structure, Reagent Gas Composition, and Reaction Temperature
Suhua Wang,Shihe Yang +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of copper surface structure, reagent gas composition, and reaction temperature on the growth of Cu2S nanowire arrays has been systematically investigated, and the common feature of the proposed mechanisms for the CU2S nano-wire growth lies in the facile diffusion of the sulfur and copper species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct synthesis of single-crystalline silicon nanowires using molten gallium and silane plasma
TL;DR: In this paper, the first ever demonstration of using silane directly in the gas phase and molten gallium in a microwave plasma for bulk nucleation and growth of single-crystal quality silicon nanowires was reported.

Alicja Bachmatiuk,Felix Börrnert,Mandy Grobosch,Franziska Schäffel,Ulrike Wolff,Andrew Scott,Mujtaba Zaka,Jamie H. Warner,Rüdiger Klingeler,Martin Knupfer,Bernd Büchner,Mark H. Rümmeli +11 more
TL;DR: This study shows the formation of SiC from SiO(2) nanoparticles for the synthesis of graphitic carbon nanostructures via chemical vapor deposition (CVD) at 900 degrees C and points to the carbothermal reduction of SiO (2) in the CVD reaction.

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.
