We investigate the emission properties of excitons in GaAs nanowires containing quantum disks formed by structural alternation between the zinc-blende and wurtzite phases, by means of temperature-dependent photoluminescence. At 10 K the emission from an en ...

We use in situ observations by variable temperature transmission electron microscopy on Ga drops at the tips of GaAs nanowires to investigate the phase behavior of nanoscale Ga. Experiments on pure Ga drops are compared with drops containing well-defined l ...

Cleaved edge overgrowth and selective area epitaxy were combined for the synthesis of InAs quantum dot (QD) arrays with lateral sizes from 20 to 40 nm. The optical properties were locally assessed by confocal photoluminescence spectroscopy experiments at l ...

P-type gallium arsenide nanowires were grown with different silicon doping concentrations. The incorporation is monitored by Raman spectroscopy of the local vibrational modes. For Si-concentrations up to 1.4 x 10(18) cm(-3), silicon incorporates mainly in ...

We report on the use of photonic resonances in Raman spectroscopy on single nanowires for the enhancement of forbidden modes and the study of the interaction of phonons with free-carriers. This is achieved by suspending nanowire over a trench and detecting ...

InAs quantum dot arrays are obtained on GaAs nanowire facets by molecular beam epitaxy. The GaAs nanowires are first grown by the gallium-assisted catalyst-free method. Decoration of the nanowire facets with InAs quantum dots is achieved only when the face ...

The tuning of the optical and electronic properties of semiconductor nanowires can be achieved by crystal phase engineering. Zinc-blende and diamond semiconductors exhibit pressure-induced structural transitions as well as a strong pressure dependence of t ...

Doped catalyst-free GaAs nanowires have been grown by molecular beam epitaxy with the gallium-assisted method. The spatial dependence of the dopant concentration and resistivity have been measured by Raman spectroscopy and four point electrical measurement ...

Growth of GaAs and InxGa1-xAs nanowires by the group-III assisted molecular beam epitaxy growth method on (001)GaAs/SiO2 substrates is studied in dependence on growth temperature, with the objective of maximizing the indium incorporation. Nanowire growth w ...

Mobility and carrier density in p-type GaAs nanowires measured by transmission Raman spectroscopy ...

Crystal-phase engineering has emerged as a novel method of bandgap engineering, made feasible by the high surface-to-volume ratio of nanowires. There remains intense debate about the exact characteristics of the band structure of the novel crystal phases, ...

A contacting scheme to measure the transport properties into self-assembled InAs Quantum Wires (QWRs) or Quantum Dots (QDs) is presented. The nanostructures are formed on the (110) cleaved edge of a AlAs/AlGaAs heterostructure substrate by means of the Cle ...

A method for the direct correlation at the nanoscale of structural and optical properties of single GaAs nanowires is reported. Nanowires consisting of 100% wurtzite and nanowires presenting zinc-blende/wurtzite polytypism are investigated by photoluminesc ...

In semiconductor nanowires, the coexistence of wurtzite and zinc-blende phases enables the engineering of the electronic structure within a single material. This presupposes an exact knowledge of the band structure in the wurtzite phase. We demonstrate tha ...

The thermal properties of freely suspended GaAs nanowires are investigated by applying a method which relies on laser heating and the determination of the local temperature by Raman spectroscopy. In order to determine the values for the thermal conductivit ...

Multiple seed formation by three-dimensional twinning at the initial stages of growth explains the manifold of orientations found when self-catalyzed GaAs nanowires grow on silicon. This mechanism can be tuned as a function of the growth conditions by chan ...

In this paper we introduce a new paradigm for nanowire growth that explains the unwanted appearance of parasitic nonvertical nanowires. With a crystal structure polarization analysis of the initial stages of GaAs nanowire growth on Si substrates, we demons ...
