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...

Why is the content I wish to access not available via ORA?
Bibliographic data (the information relating to research outputs) and full-text items (e.g. articles, theses, reports, etc.) arrive in ORA from several different sources. Unfortunately we are not able to make available the full-text for every research output.
Please contact the ORA team (
) if you have queries regarding unavailable content OR if you are aware of a full-text copy we can make available.
) if you have queries regarding unavailable content OR if you are aware of a full-text copy we can make available.
Content may be unavailable for the following four reasons
-
Version unsuitable
-
We have not obtained a suitable full-text for a given research output. See this page for more information.
-

Permissions
-
All content made available in ORA should comply with relevant rights, such as copyright. See this page for more information.

Clearance
-
Some thesis volumes scanned as part of the digitisation scheme funded by Dr Leonard Polonsky are currently unavailable due to sensitive material or uncleared third-party copyright content. We are attempting to contact authors whose theses are affected.
Alternative access to the full-text
You may be able to access the full-text directly from the publisher's website using the 'Publisher Copy' link in the 'Links & Downloads' box from a research output's ORA record page. This method may require an institutional or individual subscription to the journal/resource.
