Growth and characterization of gold catalyzed SiGe nanowires and alternative metal-catalyzed Si nanowires

<p>Abstract</p> <p>The growth of semiconductor (SC) nanowires (NW) by CVD using Au-catalyzed VLS process has been widely studied over the past few years. Among others SC, it is possible to grow pure Si or SiGe NW thanks to these techniques. Nevertheless, Au could deteriorate the el...
