Funded Activity Summary
Towards phase, composition and homogeneity control in ternary nanowires. Semiconductor nanowires have enormous potential for large scale industry manufacturing as each individual nanowire represents one device. The aim of this project is the catalyst-free growth of ternary nanowires with control over structure, composition and homogeneity within the wire. Detailed electron microscopy analyses are essential to reconstruct a three-dimensional view of the nanowires and understand the growth mechanism at work. These structural characteristics determine the optical properties. It is expected that precise control over growth will allow the emission wavelength of the nanowires to be tuned and allow their use in optoelectronic device structures. Two innovative techniques are proposed using strain and patterned substrates for ternary nanowire growth.Funded Activity Details
