Direct synthesis of β-silicon carbide nanowires from graphite only without a catalyst
One-dimensional (1D) β-SiC nanowires were successfully fabricated on bare Si (1 0 0) substrate using simple carbo-thermal evaporation of graphite at 1200 °C. The obtained β-SiC nanowires were aligned with diameters ranged between 40 and 500 nm. The majority of crystal planes were β-SiC (1 1 1) with...
