Nanoskiving Core-Shell Nanowires: A New Fabrication Method for Nano-optics

Martin Heiss, Eleonora Russo, Yannik Fontana

This paper describes the fabrication of functional optical devices by sectioning quantum-dot-in-nanowires systems with predefined lengths and orientations. This fabrication process requires only two steps, embedding the nanowires in epoxy and using an ultr ...

Low-NA focused vortex beam lithography for below 100-nm feature size at 405 nm illumination

Hans Peter Herzig, Toralf Scharf, Myun Sik Kim

There are varieties of novel methods, which demonstrate the super-resolution. For instance, an optically trapped sub-micron dielectric sphere serves as a near-field focusing lens to directly write patterns of ~100 nm in liquid, and accelerated metallic nan ...

Efficient Charge Extraction out of Nanoscale Schottky Contacts to CdS Nanowires

Klaus Kern, Marko Burghard, Thomas Dufaux

Charge recombination dynamics in semiconductor nanostructures is of vital importance for photovoltaic or photodetector device applications. We use local photocurrent measurements to explore spatially separated drift- and diffusion-currents close to the edg ...

Multi-gate Si nanowire MOSFETs

Mohammad Najmzadeh

Multi-gate devices e.g. gate-all-around (GAA) Si nanowires and FinFETs are promising can- didates for aggressive CMOS downscaling. Optimum subthreshold slope, immunity against short channel effect and optimized power consumption are the major benefits of s ...

Ordered Arrays of Size-Selected Oxide Nanoparticles

Luca Gragnaniello

A bottom-up approach to produce a long-range ordered superlattice of monodisperse and isomorphic metal-oxide nanoparticles (NP) supported onto an oxide substrate is demonstrated. The synthetic strategy consists of self-assembling metallic NP on an ultrathi ...

Silicon nanowire AFM tips grown on released scanning probe cantilevers from stencil-deposited catalysts

Jürgen Brugger, Andreea Veronica Savu

We present a parallel, full wafer technique for deposition of catalyst on released scanning probe bodies for the growth of individual high aspect-ratio Si nanowire tips. 1-D probes are necessary for imaging high aspect-ratio nano-patterns, such as deep and ...
