We present a model to describe the spatiotemporal evolution of guided modes in semiconductor nanowires based on a coupled mode formalism. Light-matter interaction is modelled based on semiconductor Bloch equations, including many-particle…

The combination of large thickness ($>3$ $\mu$m), large--area uniformity (75 mm diameter), high growth rate (up to 0.4 $\mu$m/min) in assemblies of complex--shaped nanowires on lithographically defined patterns has been achieved for the…

We investigate the influence of modified growth conditions during the spontaneous formation of GaN nanowires on Si(111) in plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy. We find that a two-step growth approach, where the substrate temperature is…

The concept of high refractive index subwavelength dielectric nanoresonators, supporting electric and magnetic optical resonances, is a promising platform for waveguiding, sensing, and nonlinear nanophotonic devices. However, high…

Large-scale CuO nanowires are commonly synthesized by the thermal oxidation method. However, the growth mechanism remains controversial between diffusion growth mechanism and vapor-solid (VS) growth mechanism. In this study, we investigated…

We report the growth of Al-catalysed ZnO nanowires (NWs) using a thermal evaporation technique.Before the growth, the substrates were covered with a distribution of Al nano-island that act as seeds. We found that the density of NWs…

Thin film deposition technologies boost the development of modern semiconductor industries. Being a fancy variant, vapor phase deposition on metal nanoparticles (often in liquid phase) rather than on bare substrates opens novel avenues of…

Metallic contamination was key to the discovery of semiconductor nanowires, but today it stands in the way of their adoption by the semiconductor industry. This is because many of the metallic catalysts required for nanowire growth are not…

We report a study on the growth of NiBi3 nanowires and nanorods during the preparation of superconducting NiBi3 films by co-evaporation of Ni and Bi. We find that NiBi3 films grown via co-evaporation of Ni and Bi metals achieve higher…

We observe growth of shape-controlled potassium nanoparticles inside a random network of glass nanopores, exposed to low-power laser radiation. Visible laser light plays a dual role: it increases the desorption probability of potassium…

It is demonstrated by the current work controlled one-to-one synthesis of Ge nanowires (GeNWs) with ~100% yield from Au seed particles. The optimum GeNW growth conditions are found to be size dependent. For < 50 nm Au seeds, under-growth,…

Photoconductors based on semiconducting thin films, nanowires and 2-dimensional atomic layers have been extensively investigated. But there is no explicit photogain equation that allows for fitting and designing photoresponses of these…

We study the effect of Joule heating from electric currents flowing through ferromagnetic nanowires on the temperature of the nanowires and on the temperature of the substrate on which the nanowires are grown. The spatial current density…

We present a multi-phase-field model to describe quantitatively nanowire growth by the vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) process. The free-energy functional of this model depends on three non-conserved order parameters that distinguish the vapor,…

Nanomaterials often undergo unusual mechanical deformations compared to their bulk counterparts when irradiated with ion-beams. This study visualizes and investigates some of the unusual interactions that can occur in nanomaterials during…

When thin films are grown on a substrate by chemical vapor deposition, the evolution of the first deposited layers may be described, on mesoscopic scales, by dynamical models of the reaction-diffusion type. For monoatomic layers, such…

Nature provides many paradigms for the design and fabrication of artificial composite materials. Inspired by the relationship between the well-ordered architecture and biopolymers found in natural nacre, we present a facile strategy to…

Thin-film solid-state metal dealloying (thin-film SSMD) is a promising method for fabricating nanostructures with controlled morphology and efficiency, offering advantages over conventional bulk materials processing methods for integration…

Colloidal perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) are a well-proven platform for growing anisotropic structures. Nanowires (NWs) exhibiting a quantum confinement phenomenon and microwires (MWs), which enable lasing, are of particular interest for…

Laser ablation in liquid (LAL) is important technique used for formation of nanoparticles (NP). The LAL processes cover logarithmically wide range of spatiotemporal scales and is not fully understood. The NP produced by LAL are rather…
