Wurtzite to zinc blende phase transition in GaAs nanowires induced by epitaxial burying.
Gilles Patriarche,Frank Glas,Maria Tchernycheva,Corinne Sartel,Ludovic Largeau,Jean-Christophe Harmand,G. E. Cirlin +6 more
TL;DR: Two possible mechanisms for the structural transition upon burying are considered, how they can be discriminated from each other is examined, and why the transition is favorable are explained.
Journal ArticleDOI
Understanding quantum confinement in nanowires: basics, applications and possible laws.
TL;DR: It has been found that quantum confinement owes its origin to surface strain resulting from surface passivation and surface reconstruction and hence thin nanowires may actually be crystalline-core/amorphous-shell (c-Si/a-Si) nanoweires.

Bio-inspired Crystal Growth by Synthetic Templates
TL;DR: In this article, a review of bio-inspired strategies for the controlled growth of inorganic crystals using synthetic templates is presented, including synergistic effects of crystal growth modifiers in water and in a mixed solvent, and crystallization on artificial interfaces or within matrices.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scalable synthesis and device integration of self-registered one-dimensional zinc oxide nanostructures and related materials.
TL;DR: This review article provides a background on vapor-based growth processes and how they impact device integration strategies, and highlights some of the recent work on formation of two-dimensional and three-dimensional nanowire and nanowall arrays and an overview of their structural and electro-optical properties.

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.
