Resumen
Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP) Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq) Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES) Semiconductor nanowires oriented along the [211] direction usually present twins parallel to their axis. For group IV nanowires this kind of twin allows the formation of a catalyst-nanowire interface composed of two equivalent {111} facets. For III-V nanowires, however, the twin will generate two facets with different polarities. In order to keep the < 211 > orientation stable, a balance in growth rates for these different facets must be reached. We report here the observation of stable, micron-long < 211 >-oriented InGaP nanowires with a spontaneous core-shell structure. We show that stacking fault formation in the crystal region corresponding to the {111} A facet termination provides a stable NW/NP interface for growth along the < 211 > direction. During sample cool down, however, the catalyst migrates to a lateral {111} B facet, allowing the growth of branches perpendicular to the initial orientation. In addition to that, we show that the core-shell structure is non-concentric, most likely due to the asymmetry between the facets formed in the NW sidewall; this effect generates stress along the nanowire, which can be relieved through bending. 7 29

Unusual effects of nanowire-nanowire junctions on the persistent photoconductivity in SnO2 nanowire network devices
Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp); Universidade Federal de São Carlos (UFSCar) (2021-01-01)The persistent photoconductivity (PPC) effect is a commonly observed behavior in SnO2 nanostructures. Here we described and studied this effect through a comparative study, based on measurements of electronic transport ... -
