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 …

We report on optical experiments performed on individual GaAs nanowires and the
manipulation of their temporal emission characteristics using a surface acoustic wave. We …

We report on the extrinsic chirality behavior of GaAs-based NWs asymmetrically hybridized
with Au. The samples are fabricated by a recently developed, lithography-free self-organized …

Surface optical phonons are normally considered as subtle and poorly reproducible features
in the Raman spectra of nanostructured semiconductors, from which little or no information …

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 …

The fascinating relationship between structure and property in nanowires has enabled a
wealth of applications in photonics and electronics. The behavior of phonons in nanowires is …

We present recent developments in Raman probe of confined optical and acoustic phonons
in nonpolar semiconducting nanowires, with emphasis on Si and Ge. First, a review of the …

In this work, the photoacoustic characterization in the UV/Vis range of randomly oriented
silver nanowire films deposited onto either a quartz or polymeric substrate is presented. This …
