Growth of gold-assisted gallium arsenide nanowires on silicon substrates via molecular beam epitaxy

Gallium arsenide nanowires with different diameters are grown on silicon (100) substrates by what is called the vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) growth mechanism using a molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) system. Good quality nanowires with surface densities of approximately 10^8 nanowires per square centimeter a...
