A new characterization approach to study the mechanical behavior of silicon nanowires

Yusuf Leblebici, Zuhal Tasdemir, Mohammad Nasr Esfahani, Mustafa Yilmaz

This work proposes a new approach to characterize the mechanical properties of nanowires based on a combination of nanomechanical measurements and models. Silicon nanowires with a critical dimension of 90 nm and a length of 8 mu m obtained through a monoli ...

Focusing on the liquid role in the vapour liquid solid growth mechanism

Lea Ghisalberti

In this work we dive into key questions regarding the wetting of a nanoscale droplet which provides fundamental understanding of Vapor-Liquid-Solid growth mode of nanowires. This understanding is important to performreproducible NW fabrication and allow th ...

Doping challenges and pathways to industrial scalability of III–V nanowire arrays

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Lucas Güniat, Valerio Piazza, Wonjong Kim

Semiconductor nanowires (NWs) have been investigated for decades, but their application into commercial products is still difficult to achieve, with triggering causes related to the fabrication cost and structure complexity. Dopant control at the nanoscale ...

Silicon Nanowire Arrays Coated with Ag and Au Dendrites for Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering

Siarhei Zavatski

Silicon nanowires (SiNWs) were comprehensively characterized in dependence on conditions of their formation via metal (Ag) -assisted chemical etching (MACE) of monocrystalline Si. The Ag structures remained on/between SiNWs based on both n- and p-Si were f ...
