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...
GaAs and InP based nanowires were grown epitaxially on GaAs or InP (111)B substrates by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition using Au nanoparticles as catalyst. In this talk, I will give an overview of nanowire research activities in our group. Especially, the effects of growth parameters for GaAs and InP nanowires on the crystal quality have been studied in detail. We demonstrated the ability to...
InP and GaAs based nanowires were grown epitaxially on InP or GaAs (111)B substrates by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition via vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) mechanism. In this report, I will give an overview of nanowire research activities in our group.

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...
Summary form only given. In the last few years, semiconductor nanowires (NWs) have attracted intensive attention due to both the intriguing fundamental properties and their potential applications in optoelectronic devices. GaAs NWs grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) often exhibit tapered and kinked morphologies, depending on growth temperature. However, straight NWs of uniform...
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 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...
