Chemically vapor deposited Si nanowires nucleated by self-assembled Ti islands on patterned and unpatterned Si substrates
- Abstract:
-
When Ti is deposited on Si in the 600-700 °C temperature range, the lattice mismatch between the Ti-containing deposit and the Si substrate causes TiSix nanoislands to form. The nanoislands grow when annealed at temperatures above 800 °C. When the nanoislands (either unannealed or annealed) are exposed to a Si-containing precursor gas, the Ti catalyzes the decomposition of the gas, allowing one-dimensional nanowires to grow. If oxide-patterned Si substrates are used, the Ti islands form selec...
