Title: InAs nanowires grown by metal-organic vapor-phase epitaxy (MOVPE) employing PS/PMMA diblock copolymer nanopatterning. Author: Huang Y, Kim TW, Xiong S, Mawst LJ, Kuech TF, Nealey PF, Dai Y, Wang Z, Guo W, Forbes D, Hubbard SM, Nesnidal M. Journal: Nano Lett; 2013; 13(12):5979-84. PubMed ID: 24274630. Abstract: Dense arrays of indium arsenide (InAs) nanowire materials have been grown by selective-area metal-organic vapor-phase epitaxy (SA-MOVPE) using polystyrene-b-poly(methyl methacrylate) (PS/PMMA) diblock copolymer (DBC) nanopatterning technique, which is a catalyst-free approach. Nanoscale openings were defined in a thin (~10 nm) SiNx layer deposited on a (111)B-oriented GaAs substrate using the DBC process and CF4 reactive ion etching (RIE), which served as a hard mask for the nanowire growth. InAs nanowires with diameters down to ~ 20 nm and micrometer-scale lengths were achieved with a density of ~ 5 × 10(10) cm(2). The nanowire structures were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy, which indicate twin defects in a primary zincblende crystal structure and the absence of threading dislocation within the imaged regions.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
