摘要
Synthesis of silicon nanowires is studied by using a vapor-liquid-solid growth technique. Silicon tetrachloride reduction with hydrogen in the gas phase is used with gold serving as catalyst to facilitate growth. Only a narrow set of conditions of SiCl4 concentration and temperature yield straight nanowires. High concentrations and temperatures generally result in particulates, catalyst coverage and deactivation, and coatinglike materials.
