Vladimir G. Dubrovskii,N. V. Sibirev,G. E. Cirlin,G. E. Cirlin,A. D. Bouravleuv,Yu. B. Samsonenko,D L Dheeraj,Hailong Zhou,Corinne Sartel,Jean-Christophe Harmand,Gilles Patriarche,Frank Glas +11 more
TL;DR: Theoretically and experimentally nonlinear effects during the ''vapor-liquid-solid'' growth of semiconductor nanowires have been studied in this paper, where four possible growth scenarios: (I) infinite growth; (II) decomposition; (III) averaging growth to a finite length; and (IV) continuing growth such that nanewires of small initial length decay and longer ones grow infinitely.

Influence of the (111) twinning on the formation of diamond cubic/diamond hexagonal heterostructures in Cu-catalyzed Si nanowires
Jordi Arbiol,Anna Fontcuberta i Morral,Sònia Estradé,Francesca Peiró,Billel Kalache,Pere Roca i Cabarrocas,Joan Ramon Morante +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the occurrence of cubic silicon/hexagonal silicon as disks defined along the nanowire growth direction is reviewed in detail for Si nanowires obtained using Cu as catalyst.

Metalorganic vapor-phase epitaxial growth and characterization of vertical InP nanowires
TL;DR: In this paper, high-density and free-standing InP nanowire structures of vertical orientation were grown by the metalorganic vapor-phase epitaxial technique using colloidal Au nanoparticles as the catalyst.

Oxide-Assisted Catalytic Growth of MgO Nanowires with Uniform Diameter Distribution
TL;DR: MgO nanowires with uniform diameter distribution of about 20 nm have been synthesized by boron oxide-assisted catalytic growth method as mentioned in this paper, where X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and high-reso...

Control of GaAs nanowire morphology and crystal structure
M.C. Plante,Ray R. LaPierre +1 more
TL;DR: Comparison of nanowire densities on the various post-growth surfaces suggests a possible incubation time between the moment the Ga shutter is opened and when nanowires growth is initiated, making the process suitable for the fabrication of core-shell structures.

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.
