Abstract

A binary solution of germanium nanoparticles and nanowires was drop cast on a silicon oxide surface. We investigated the dynamic behavior of the drop drying, successfully verifying the Diffusion Limited Aggregation growth mediated by nanowire attractors. The directed growth of nanostructures could be useful in view of device design.
