Abstract :
GaAs nanowires were grown on GaAs(111)B substrates via VLS mechanism with various Au film thickness. Experiment results indicated that thicker Au film results in larger diameters, more dispersed size distribution, and lower density of the nanowires. The growth rate is independent on diameters, while it decreases with the density.
