A non-linear photolithography technique is presented, providing a new, rapid and damage-free method of contacting semiconductor nanowires. In addition, by using nanowires with room-temperature luminescence, a through-resist photoluminescence step provides a verifiable route to contacting high-quality wires [1].
The photocarrier lifetime within semiconductor nanowires is a critical parameter for optoelectronic applications. Here, we present a technique to determine the lifetime with picosecond resolution, revealing a 7.5 ps lifetime for GaAs nanowires.
Growth of Au-catalyzed InP nanowires (NWs) by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) has been studied in the temperature range of 400-510°C and V/III ratio of 44-700. We demonstrate that minimal tapering of InP NWs can be achieved at 400°C and V/III ratio of 350. Zinc-blende (ZB) or wurtzite (WZ) NWs is obtained depending on the growth conditions. 4K microphotoluminescence (μ-PL) studies show...
We report the effect of V/III ratio and nanowire diameter on the crystal structure and optical properties of InP nanowires. Time -resolved photoluminescence studies have revealed that wurtzite nanowires show longer carrier lifetimes than zinc-blende ones.
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...
We have investigated the structural and optical properties of III-V nanowires grown by metalorganic chemical vapour deposition. Binary GaAs, InAs and InP nanowires, and ternary InGaAs and AlGaAs nanowires, have been fabricated and characterised. A variety of axial and radial heterostructures have also been fabricated, including GaAs/AlGaAs core-multishell and GaAs/InGaAs superlattice nanowires. GaAs/AlGaAs...
We have investigated the growth, structural properties and photoluminescence of novel GaAs/AlGaAs radial heterostructure nanowires, fabricated by metalorganic chemical vapour deposition. The effect of growth temperature on nanowire morphology is discussed. Strong photoluminescence is observed from GaAs nanowires with AlGaAs shells. Core/multishell nanowires, of GaAs cores clad in several alternating...
