Porous anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) membranes are well-established templates used for
the fabrication of one-dimensional nanostructures. Herein, we report a straightforward …

Thermal conductivity value of sponge-like meso-porous germanium (meso-PGe) layers
measured by means of photoacoustic technique is reported. The room temperature thermal …

Ge thin films have been prepared by layer-exchange metal-induced crystallization using
AgSb alloy as a catalyst. Not only the crystallization of Ge, but also the incorporation of Sb …

The direct electrodeposition of crystalline germanium (Ge) nanowire film electrodes from an
aqueous solution of dissolved GeO2 using discrete 'flux'nanoparticles capable of dissolving …

Germanium (Ge) is a group IV semiconductor with superior electronic properties compared
with silicon, such as larger carrier mobilities and smaller effective masses. It is also a …

Germanene is a single layer allotrope of Ge, with a honeycomb structure similar to
graphene. This report concerns the electrochemical formation of germanene in a pH 4.5 …

Thin films of polycrystalline germanium were formed by the pyrolysis of germane gas in a
low-pressure reactor. Process parameters investigated were deposition temperature in the …

Structural and optical properties of germanium thin films deposited on silicon nitride coated
glass are investigated with the aim to develop a material for the bottom cells of low cost …

A large-grained (111)-oriented Ge thin film is achieved on a SiO2 glass substrate using an
Al-induced crystallization (AIC) technique. Low-temperature (350° C) AIC of an amorphous …

Fabrication of porous, foam-like germanium-based (Ge-based) nanostructures is achieved
