Exploiting of flux shadowing effect on In${}_x$Ga${}_{1-x}$As asymmetric shell growth for strain and bending engineering in GaAs - In${}_x$Ga${}_{1-x}$As core - shell NW arrays

Mahmoud Al Humaidi, Julian Jakob, Ali Al Hassan +8

Here we report on non-uniform shell growth of In(x)Ga(1-x)As onto GaAs nanowire (NW) core by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). The growth was realized on pre-patterned silicon substrat…
