Controlling growth of nanorod via screening effects
Da-Jun Shu, Xiang Xiong, Zhao-Wu Wang +3
We demonstrate in this report that nanorods can spontaneously grow on the top of a transient mound when the screening effect is considered in island growth. The number of the topmo…

Atomistic mechanisms and diameter selection during nanorod growth
Da-Jun Shu, Xiang Xiong, Zhao-Wu Wang +3
We study in this paper the atomic mechanisms of nanorod growth and propose the way of diameter selection of nanorod. A characteristic radius is demonstrated to be crucial in nanoro…
