Hidden defects in silicon nanowires [PDF]
Nanotechnology, 2011 Recent publications have reported the presence of hexagonal phases in Si nanowires. Most of these reports were based on 'odd' diffraction patterns and HRTEM images—'odd' means that these images and diffraction patterns could not be obtained on perfect silicon crystals in the classical diamond cubic structure.

Fabrication of Silicon Nanowires and Transistors with Silicon Nanowire-Channels
Journal of the Vacuum Society of Japan, 2009 Si nanowires (SiNWs) were synthesized by gold (Au)-catalyzed chemical vapor deposition (CVD). To control the morphology of SiNWs, the growth parameters were systematically changed and they were studied by transmission and scanning electron microscopes and Raman spectroscopy.
