Single-step Au-catalysed synthesis and microstructural characterization of core–shell Ge/In–Te nanowires by MOCVD

We report on the self-assembly of core–shell Ge/In–Te nanowires (NWs) on single crystal Si substrates by Metalorganic Chemical Vapour Deposition (MOCVD), coupled to the Vapour–Liquid–Solid (VLS) mechanism, catalysed by Au nanoparticles (NPs). The NWs are formed by a crystalline Ge core and an InTe (...
