First principles-based atomistic modeling of the structure and nature of amorphous Au-Si alloys and their application to Si nanowire synthesis

A great deal of attention has been paid to semiconductor nanowires due to their compatibility of conventional silicon-based technology. Metal-catalytic vapor-liquidsolid (VLS) and various solution-based techniques have widely been used to synthesize silicon/germanium (Si/Ge) nanowires. It is well ch...
