Two different Au catalysts were used to grow GaAs epitaxial nanowires on GaAs (111)B substrates. Detailed investigations have shown that using Au thin film and annealing technique, it is possible to achieve nanowire growth with much higher density comparing to using Au nanoparticles. It is found that the tapering and lattice defects normally observed in nanowires induced by Au nanoparticles were reduced...
The sidewall facets of GaAs nanowires (NWs) were studied. It has been found that the sidewalls of GaAs NWs grown at 450 °C are {112} facets. However, the sidewalls of GaAs NWs start to become {110} during the postannealing at 650 °C for 30 min.

Semiconductor nanowire (NW) heterostructures are increasingly important building blocks for electronic and optoelectronic devices. III-V nanowires with attention to well-controlled growth parameters, high structural quality and high optical quality NWs with unusually long recombination lifetimes can be achieved. We probe these NWs experimentally with both CW and time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy...
In this paper, we demonstrate the key issues of axial nanowire heterostructures, such as, the fundamental criteria for formation and failure of axial nanowire heterostructures via vapor-liquid-solid mechanism and lateral misfit strain relaxation in these structures. We show the failure of axial nanowire heterostructures by growing InAs axially on GaAs nanowires, and the lateral misfit strain relaxation...
We report a two-temperature procedure for the growth of GaAs nanowires by metalorganic chemical vapour deposition. An initial high temperature step affords effective nucleation and promotes epitaxial growth of straight (111)B-oriented nanowires. Lower temperatures are employed subsequently, to minimise nanowire tapering during growth.
InGaAs quantum dots (QDs) and nanowires have been grown on GaAs by metal-organic chemical vapour deposition on GaAs (100) and (111)B substrates, respectively. InGaAs QD lasers were fabricated and characterised. Results show ground-state lasing at about 1150 nm in devices with lengths greater than 2.5 mm. We also observed a strong influence of nanowire density on nanowire height specific to nanowires...
The growth mechanism and properties of GaAs/InAs nanowires prepared by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition are investigated. Vertical InAs nanowires on GaAs (111)B substrates are successfully grown despite the large lattice mismatch (-7.2%). The crystallographic perfection of InAs nanowires is confirmed by hexagonal or triangular cross section. An interesting L-shaping of GaAs/InAs heterostructure...
