Electrical conductance through InAs nanowires is relevant for electronic applications as well as for fundamental quantum experiments. Here we employ nominally undoped, slightly tapered InAs nanowires to study the diameter dependence of…
InAs nanowires have been actively explored as the channel material for high performance transistors owing to their high electron mobility and ease of ohmic metal contact formation. The catalytic growth of non-epitaxial InAs nanowires,…

Narrow bandgap InAs$_{1-x}$Sb$_x$ nanowires show broad prospects for applications in wide spectrum infrared detectors, high-performance transistors and quantum computation. Realizing such applications require the fine control of composition…
We have reproducibly grown near-single-domain superconducting aluminum (Al) films on GaAs(111)A wafers using molecular beam epitaxy. Synchrotron X-ray diffraction revealed twin-domain ratios of 0.00005 and 0.0003 for 19.4-nm- and…
Topological qubits based on Majorana fermions have the potential to revolutionize the emerging field of quantum computing by making information processing significantly more robust to decoherence. Nanowires (NWs) are a promising medium for…
We present self-assembly of InAs/InAlAs quantum dots by droplet epitaxy technique on vicinal GaAs(111)A substrates. The small miscut angle, while maintaining the symmetries imposed to the quantum dot from the surface, allows fast growth…
A new approach to the growth of diluted magnetic semiconductors with two dimensional electron gas in InAs quantum well has been developed. The method is based on molecular-beam epitaxy of coherent "hybrid" AlSb/InAs/(Zn,Mn)Te…
Selective area growth (SAG) of nanowires and networks promise a route toward scalable electronics, photonics and quantum devices based on III-V semiconductor materials. The potential of high-mobility SAG nanowires however is not yet fully…
We report on a low-temperature transport study of a single-gate, planar field-effect device made from a free-standing, wurtzite-crystalline InAs nanosheet. The nanosheet is grown via molecular beam epitaxy and the field-effect device is…
We propose a dual-adatom diffusion-limited model for the growth of compound semiconductor nanowires via the vapor-liquid-solid or the vapour-solid-solid mechanisms. The growth is catalyzed either by a liquid or a solid nanoparticle. We…
We report on observation of coherent electron transport in suspended high-quality InAs nanowire-based devices. The InAs nanowires were grown by low-temperature gold-assisted vapor-liquid-solid molecular-beam-epitaxy. The high quality of the…
The electronic properties and nanostructure of InAs nanowires are correlated by creating multiple field effect transistors (FETs) on nanowires grown to have low and high defect density segments. 4.2 K carrier mobilities are ~4X larger in…
Many present and future applications of superconductivity would benefit from electrostatic control of carrier density and tunneling rates, the hallmark of semiconductor devices. One particularly exciting application is the realization of…

We use the available transport measurements in the literature to develop a dataset for the likely amount of disorder in semiconductor (InAs and InSb) materials which are used in fabricating the superconductor-semiconductor nanowire samples…
We study the electronic structure of full-shell superconductor-semiconductor nanowires, which have recently been proposed for creating Majorana zero modes, using an eight-band $\vec{k} \cdot \vec{p}$ model within a fully self-consistent…
Epitaxially grown InAs NWs are relevant for electrical sensing applications due to Fermi level pinning at NW surface, thus very sensitive to surrounding environment. While a single NW growth batch consists of millions virtually identical…
Nanowires (NWs) of topological materials are emerging as an exciting platform to probe and engineer new quantum phenomena that are hard to access in bulk phase. Their quasi-one-dimensional geometry and large surface-to-bulk ratio unlock new…
