Metal‐Catalyzed Growth of Semiconductor Nanostructures Without Solubility and Diffusivity Constraints
Source abstract
Abstract
This study stunningly reveals that metal-catalyzed growth of semiconductor nanostructures can be realized even in the absence of any solubility and diffusivity of the semiconductor in the metal catalyst. Using in situ heating electron microscopy, the yet unrecognized growth mechanism is unraveled at the atomic scale for the Al-catalyzed growth of crystalline Si nanostructures at temperatures as low as 150 °C.
