Structural Characterisation of GaP <111>B Nanowires by HRTEM
GaP <111>B nanowires are dominated by (111) twins orthogonal to the growth direction and show well-developed {111} side-facets. Based on this, a 3D-model has been constructed with a cross-section of an octahed...

Targeted deposition of Au aerosol nanoparticles on vertical nanowires for the creation of nanotrees
Complex tree-like nanostructures with controlled morphology are becoming increasingly important for the development of nanoscale devices. The position of branches on III–V semiconductor nanotrees is determined...

Size-controlled nanoparticles by thermal cracking of iron pentacarbonyl
A gas-phase method has been developed for producing size-controlled nanoparticles by thermal cracking of iron pentacarbonyl. The method includes the formation of iron particles from vapor emanating from the cr...

Compaction of agglomerates of aerosol nanoparticles: A compilation of experimental data
The compacting behavior of agglomerated aerosol nanoparticles in the size range between 7 and 150 nm was investigated using available literature data. We observed a characteristic behavior, which can be descri...

Direct Observation of the Molten State of Nanometer-sized Particles With an Atomic Force Microscope: A Feasibility Study
An atomic force microscope (AFM) was used to directly examine the physical state of nanometer-sized particles. The critical diameter of indium particles, where evidence of melting at room temperature was obser...

Characterization of InP/GaInAs Nanometer Sized Columns Produced by Aerosol Deposition and Plasma Etching
We present a technique for the fabrication of InP nano-columns and GaInAs/InP quantum-dots based on the use of sintered aerosol Ag particles as a mask in an electron cyclotron resonance etching process. The si...
