Epitaxial Growth Control of Crystalline Morphology and Electronic Transport in InSb Nanowires: Competition Between Axial and Radial Growth Modes.
This study investigates the morphological evolution of epitaxial indium antimonide (InSb) nanowires (NWs) grown via chemical vapor deposition (CVD). We systematically explored the influence of key growth parameters-temperature (300 °C to 480 °C), source material composition, gold (Au) nanoparticle catalyst size, and growth duration-on the resulting NW morphology, specifically focusing on NW length and tapering. Our findings reveal that the competition between axial and radial growth modes, which are governed by different growth mechanisms, dictates the final nanowire shape. An optimal growth condition was identified that yields straight and minimally tapered InSb NWs. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM) confirmed that these nanowires grow preferentially along the <110> direction, and electrical characterization via field-effect transistor (NW-FET) measurements showed that they are n-type semiconductors.
期刊介绍：
Nanomaterials (ISSN 2076-4991) is an international and interdisciplinary scholarly open access journal. It publishes reviews, regular research papers, communications, and short notes that are relevant to any field of study that involves nanomaterials, with respect to their science and application. Thus, theoretical and experimental articles will be accepted, along with articles that deal with the synthesis and use of nanomaterials. Articles that synthesize information from multiple fields, and which place discoveries within a broader context, will be preferred. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical research in as much detail as possible. Full experimental or methodical details, or both, must be provided for research articles. Computed data or files regarding the full details of the experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material. Nanomaterials is dedicated to a high scientific standard. All manuscripts undergo a rigorous reviewing process and decisions are based on the recommendations of independent reviewers.
