Behind the exciting progress of semiconductor nanowire devices is the advancement in the understanding of the nanowire synthesis process and mechanism. In this article, I will focus on the recent development in the molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) of semiconductor aluninum gallium nitride (AlGaN) nanowires. MBE has become an attractive tool for large-scale semiconductor nanowire devices, whereas AlGaN is a technologically important semiconductor material for short-wavelength photonics, as well as high-power and radio-frequency (RF) electronics. Different from epilayers wherein only a horizontal surface is involved in the epitaxy, the epitaxial growth of nanowires in general involves both horizontal and vertical surfaces. Such a unique geometry, coupled with different source configurations, greatly affects the growth kinetics, and consequently the material properties and device characteristics. In this regard, the general considerations of MBE chamber configuration for epilayers are discussed first as the basics to understand the nanowire growth. This is followed by the uniqueness of nanowires. In the end, the experimental results regarding to the correlation of source configuration to AlGaN nanowire properties and device characterics such as alloy composition, optical properties, and light emission are discussed. This article could provide useful insight for the development of AlGaN nanowire devices as well as other epitaxial semiconductor nanowire devices beyond AlGaN, especially when the chamber configuration is considered.

The crystal structures of the studied compounds were stabilized <em>via</em> hydrogen bonding that yielded supramolecular 3D networks <em>via</em> coordinated and crystallization water molecules, PyH<small><sup>+</sup></small> groups of H<small><sub>2</sub></small>L and NO<small><sub>3</sub></small><small><sup>−</sup></small> or ClO<small><sub>4</sub></small><small><sup>−</sup></small> anions. The theoretical calculations, performed using the new DFT-TB2J approach revealed the magnetic exchange interactions between the iron ions, which were mediated through intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The UV-vis absorption spectra of <strong>1</strong> and <strong>2</strong> were not overlapped with their photoluminescence emission spectra because of the spin-gapless characteristic of the band structure of these compounds.</p>","PeriodicalId":70,"journal":{"name":"CrystEngComm","volume":" 19","pages":" 3006-3017"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143944068","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
