Growth Mechanism of SmB<sub>6</sub> Nanowires Synthesized by Chemical Vapor Deposition: Catalyst-Assisted and Catalyst-Free

SmB<sub>6</sub> nanowires, as a prototype of nanostructured topological Kondo insulator, have shown rich novel physical phenomena relating to their surface. Catalyst-assisted chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is a common approach to prepare SmB<sub>6</sub> nanowires and Ni is t...
