Growth of carbon nanotubes on GaAs

Hybrid carbon nanotube-semiconductor systems offer unique properties by combining the advantages of one-dimensional conductors with the broad opportunities of semiconductor technology. Thus, it is desirable to incorporate the nanotube growth in III-V semiconductor systems. We present the directed gr...

Sumari:Hybrid carbon nanotube-semiconductor systems offer unique properties by combining the advantages of one-dimensional conductors with the broad opportunities of semiconductor technology. Thus, it is desirable to incorporate the nanotube growth in III-V semiconductor systems. We present the directed growth of carbon nanotubes from prepatterned CrNi catalyst structures on GaAs. © 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
