Vapor-liquid-solid meets vapor-solid growth mechanism for fabricating high quality indium nitride crystallites

open access: yes, 2011
Indium nitride crystallites were grown via combination of vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) and vapor-solid (VS) growth mechanisms using Au nanoparticles as catalysts.

Controlling nanowire growth through electric field-induced deformation of the catalyst droplet

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Semiconductor nanowires with precisely controlled structure can be grown by self-assembly using the vapor-liquid-solid process. Here, the authors report a more local growth control strategy using an electric field applied during growth to control ...

Plasma Processing of Low Vapor Pressure Liquids to Generate Functional Surfaces

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
The concept of depositing solid films on low-vapor pressure liquids is introduced and developed into a top-down approach to functionalize surfaces by attaching liquid polyethylene glycol (PEG).

Silica Microspheres for Economical Advanced Solar Applications

open access: yesCrystals, 2021
Solar cells made of silicon nanowires (Si-NWs) have several potential benefits over conventional bulk Si ones or thin-film devices related primarily to light absorption and cost reduction.

Indium Predeposition-Enabled Vapor-Liquid-Solid Growth of InN Nanowires

open access: yes, 2011
 InN nanowires were grown via a vapor-liquid-solid mechanism using indium powder and ammonia as reagents. Energy-dispensive spectroscopy characterizations show that nanowires feature tips at one end, which are Au-In-Si alloy, while the stems of the ...

Chemical vapor deposited boron carbide : growth by a vapor-liquid-solid process

open access: yes, 1987
Detailed analytical electron microscope (AEM) studies of yellow whiskers produced by chemical vapor deposition (CVD)1 show that two basic types of whiskers are produced at low temperatures (between 1200°C and 1400°C) and low boron to carbon gas ratios ...

Interplay of Kinetic and Thermodynamic Factors in the Stationary Composition of Vapor–Liquid–Solid IIIVxV1−x Nanowires

open access: yesNanomaterials
Compositional control over vapor–liquid–solid III–V ternary nanowires based on group V intermix (VLS IIIVxV1−x NWs) is complicated by the presence of a catalyst droplet with extremely low and hence undetectable concentrations of group V atoms. The liquid–

Coexistence of Vapor-Liquid-Solid and Vapor-Solid-Solid Growth Modes in Pd-Assisted InAs Nanowires

open access: yes, 2010
During the growth of InAs nanowires from Pd catalyst particles on InAs(111)A substrates, two distinct classes of nanowires are observed with smooth or zigzagged sidewalls.

Electrical and Optical Properties of Au-Catalyzed GaAs Nanowires Grown on Si (111) Substrate by Molecular Beam Epitaxy

open access: yesNanoscale Research Letters, 2017
In this study, defect-free zinc blende GaAs nanowires on Si (111) by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) growth are systematically studied through Au-assisted vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) method. The morphology, density, and crystal structure of GaAs nanowires were

Modelling Microlayer Formation in Boiling Sodium

open access: yesFluids, 2020
During boiling at a solid surface, it is often the case that a liquid layer of a few microns of thickness (’microlayer’) is formed beneath a bubble growing on the heated surface.
