Growth, thermodynamics, and electrical properties of silicon nanowires.

TL;DR: A comparison study of the reaction of gold-like and Au-like catalysts in the presence of low Si Solubility solvent and that of a solvent with high solubility, finds that the latter results in higher purity than the former.

Dislocation-Driven Nanowire Growth and Eshelby Twist

TL;DR: Hierarchical nanostructures of lead sulfide nanowires resembling pine trees synthesized by chemical vapor deposition revealed a screwlike dislocation in the nanowire trunks with helically rotating epitaxial branch Nanowires, confirming the Eshelby theory of dislocations.

GaN based nanorods for solid state lighting

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the recent developments of GaN nanorod growth, characterization, and related device applications based on GaN Nanorods is presented. But, the authors also discuss problems and open questions, which may impose obstacles during the future development of a GaN-based LED technology.

Diameter-dependent growth direction of epitaxial silicon nanowires.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the interplay of the liquid-solid interfacial energy with the silicon surface energy expressed in terms of an edge tension is responsible for the change of the growth direction.

Solution-grown silicon nanowires for lithium-ion battery anodes

TL;DR: Composite electrodes composed of silicon nanowires synthesized using the supercritical fluid-liquid-solid (SFLS) method mixed with amorphous carbon or carbon nanotubes were evaluated as Li-ion battery anodes.

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.
