We study the structural and chemical transformations induced by focused laser beam in
GaAs nanowires with an axial zinc-blende/wurtzite (ZB/WZ) heterostructure. The …

We have studied the growth of a SrTiO3 shell on self-catalyzed GaAs nanowires grown by
vapor–liquid–solid assisted molecular beam epitaxy on Si (111) substrates. To control the …

In this paper the early stages of the self-catalyzed Vapor-Liquid-Solid (VLS) growth of GaAs
nanowires on Si substrates by Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) are studied. The interaction of …

Nanowire heterostructures of the oxide (shell)–semiconducting (core) type are of interest for
various applications in energy harvesting, such as electrodes for photocatalysis and in …

The surface morphology of III–V semiconductor nanowires (NWs) protected by an arsenic
cap and subsequently evaporated in ultrahigh vacuum is investigated with scanning …

Ultralong GaAs nanowires were grown by molecular beam epitaxy using the vapor–liquid–
solid method. In this ultralong regime we show the existence of two features concerning the …

The efficiency of novel opto-electronic devices eg solar cells crucially depends on
controlling the doping levels in the device. Decreasing the size of the structure by employing …

La recherche d'une miniaturisation toujours plus poussée des dispositifs en micro-et opto-
électronique a participé au développement des nanotechnologies. A l'échelle …

Semiconductor nanowires (NWs) have been intensively studied over the past few years
because of their original physical properties. Unlike other systems, NWs offer the possibility …

This chapter discusses the morphological, chemical and structural properties of such core–
shell nanowires (NW). Prior to the growth of the SrTiO3 shell, the GaAs NWs were protected …
