Carbon assisted growth and photoluminescence of silicon nanowires fabricated without a catalyst

One-dimensional (1D) silicon nanowires (SiNWs) were fabricated on a catalyst free Si (100) substrate using a thermal evaporation method. Based on a SVLS growth mechanism, the SiNWs obtained were 30-265 nm in diameter and 1.7 mu m to several tens of microns in length. It was found that the presence o...
