Synthesis of amorphous SiOx nanowires and nanofibers by thermal evaporation with gold as catalyst

The growths of SiOx nanostructures (nanowires and nanofibers) on Au-coated n-type-Silicon (100) substrate via thermal evaporation were studied. Based on SVLS growth mechanism, the obtained diameter of the nanowires varies between 13 nm and about 243 nm and the diameter of nanofibers found to be arou...
