Influence of the oxide layer for growth of self-assisted InAs nanowires on Si(111)

<p>Abstract</p> <p>The growth of self-assisted InAs nanowires (NWs) by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) on Si(111) is studied for different growth parameters and substrate preparations. The thickness of the oxide layer present on the Si(111) surface is observed to play a dominant role....
