Dubrovskii VG. Self-Consistent Model for the Compositional Profiles in Vapor-Liquid-Solid III-V Nanowire Heterostructures Based on Group V Interchange. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 14:821. [PMID: 38786777 PMCID: PMC11123684 DOI: 10.3390/nano14100821] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2024] [Revised: 04/29/2024] [Accepted: 05/04/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
Due to the very efficient relaxation of elastic stress on strain-free sidewalls, III-V nanowires offer almost unlimited possibilities for bandgap engineering in nanowire heterostructures by using material combinations that are attainable in epilayers. However, axial nanowire heterostructures grown using the vapor-liquid-solid method often suffer from the reservoir effect in a catalyst droplet. Control over the interfacial abruptness in nanowire heterostructures based on the group V interchange is more difficult than for group-III-based materials, because the low concentrations of highly volatile group V atoms cannot be measured after or during growth. Here, we develop a self-consistent model for calculations of the coordinate-dependent compositional profiles in the solid and liquid phases during the vapor-liquid-solid growth of the axial nanowire heterostructure Ax0B1-x0C/Ax1B1-x1C with any stationary compositions x0 and x1. The only assumption of the model is that the growth rates of both binaries AC and BC are proportional to the concentrations of group V atoms A and B in a catalyst droplet, requiring high enough supersaturations in liquid phase. The model contains a minimum number of parameters and fits quite well the data on the interfacial abruptness across double heterostructures in GaP/GaAsxP1-x/GaP nanowires. It can be used for any axial III-V nanowire heterostructures obtained through the vapor-liquid-solid method. It forms a basis for further developments in modeling the complex growth process and suppression of the interfacial broadening caused by the reservoir effect.

Dubrovskii VG. Circumventing the Uncertainties of the Liquid Phase in the Compositional Control of VLS III-V Ternary Nanowires Based on Group V Intermix. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 14:207. [PMID: 38251170 PMCID: PMC10819397 DOI: 10.3390/nano14020207] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2023] [Revised: 01/14/2024] [Accepted: 01/15/2024] [Indexed: 01/23/2024]
Abstract
Control over the composition of III-V ternary nanowires grown by the vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) method is essential for bandgap engineering in such nanomaterials and for the fabrication of functional nanowire heterostructures for a variety of applications. From the fundamental viewpoint, III-V ternary nanowires based on group V intermix (InSbxAs1-x, InPxAs1-x, GaPxAs1-x and many others) present the most difficult case, because the concentrations of highly volatile group V atoms in a catalyst droplet are beyond the detection limit of any characterization technique and therefore principally unknown. Here, we present a model for the vapor-solid distribution of such nanowires, which fully circumvents the uncertainties that remained in the theory so far, and we link the nanowire composition to the well-controlled parameters of vapor. The unknown concentrations of group V atoms in the droplet do not enter the distribution, despite the fact that a growing solid is surrounded by the liquid phase. The model fits satisfactorily the available data on the vapor-solid distributions of VLS InSbxAs1-x, InPxAs1-x and GaPxAs1-x nanowires grown using different catalysts. Even more importantly, it provides a basis for the compositional control of III-V ternary nanowires based on group V intermix, and it can be extended over other material systems where two highly volatile elements enter a ternary solid alloy through a liquid phase.

Abstract
Compositional control in III-V ternary nanowires grown by the vapor-liquid-solid method is essential for bandgap engineering and the design of functional nanowire nano-heterostructures. Herein, we present rather general theoretical considerations and derive explicit forms of the stationary vapor-solid and liquid-solid distributions of vapor-liquid-solid III-V ternary nanowires based on group-III intermix. It is shown that the vapor-solid distribution of such nanowires is kinetically controlled, while the liquid-solid distribution is in equilibrium or nucleation-limited. For a more technologically important vapor-solid distribution connecting nanowire composition with vapor composition, the kinetic suppression of miscibility gaps at a growth temperature is possible, while miscibility gaps (and generally strong non-linearity of the compositional curves) always remain in the equilibrium liquid-solid distribution. We analyze the available experimental data on the compositions of the vapor-liquid-solid AlxGa1-xAs, InxGa1-xAs, InxGa1-xP, and InxGa1-xN nanowires, which are very well described within the model. Overall, the developed approach circumvents uncertainty in choosing the relevant compositional model (close-to-equilibrium or kinetic), eliminates unknown parameters in the vapor-solid distribution of vapor-liquid-solid nanowires based on group-III intermix, and should be useful for the precise compositional tuning of such nanowires.

NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 13:nano13111732. [PMID: 37299635 DOI: 10.3390/nano13111732] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2023] [Revised: 05/15/2023] [Accepted: 05/19/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
A core-shell nanowire heterostructure is an important building block for nanowire-based optoelectronic devices. In this paper, the shape and composition evolution induced by adatom diffusion is investigated by constructing a growth model for alloy core-shell nanowire heterostructures, taking diffusion, adsorption, desorption and incorporation of adatoms into consideration. With moving boundaries accounting for sidewall growth, the transient diffusion equations are numerically solved by the finite element method. The adatom diffusions introduce the position-dependent and time-dependent adatom concentrations of components A and B. The newly grown alloy nanowire shell depends on the incorporation rates, resulting in both shape and composition evolution during growth. The results show that the morphology of nanowire shell strongly depends on the flux impingement angle. With the increase in this impingement angle, the position of the largest shell thickness on sidewall moves down to the bottom of nanowire and meanwhile, the contact angle between shell and substrate increases to an obtuse angle. Coupled with the shell shapes, the composition profiles are shown as non-uniform along both the nanowire and the shell growth directions, which can be attributed to the adatom diffusion of components A and B. The impacts of parameters on the shape and composition evolution are systematically investigated, including diffusion length, adatom lifetime and corresponding ratios between components. This kinetic model is expected to interpret the contribution of adatom diffusion in growing alloy group-IV and group III-V core-shell nanowire heterostructures.

Abstract
Modeling of the growth process is required for the synthesis of III-V ternary nanowires with controllable composition. Consequently, new theoretical approaches for the description of epitaxial growth and the related chemical composition of III-V ternary nanowires based on group III or group V intermix were recently developed. In this review, we present and discuss existing modeling strategies for the stationary compositions of III-V ternary nanowires and try to systematize and link them in a general perspective. In particular, we divide the existing approaches into models that focus on the liquid-solid incorporation mechanisms in vapor-liquid-solid nanowires (equilibrium, nucleation-limited, and kinetic models treating the growth of solid from liquid) and models that provide the vapor-solid distributions (empirical, transport-limited, reaction-limited, and kinetic models treating the growth of solid from vapor). We describe the basic ideas underlying the existing models and analyze the similarities and differences between them, as well as the limitations and key factors influencing the stationary compositions of III-V nanowires versus the growth method. Overall, this review provides a basis for choosing a modeling approach that is most appropriate for a particular material system and epitaxy technique and that underlines the achieved level of the compositional modeling of III-V ternary nanowires and the remaining gaps that require further studies.

Abstract
In this work, we present a systematic design of growth experiments and subsequent characterization of self-catalyzed molecular beam epitaxially grown GaAsSb heterostructure axial p-i-n nanowires (NWs) on p-Si <111> for the ensemble photodetector (PD) application in the near-infrared region. Diverse growth methods have been explored to gain a better insight into mitigating several growth challenges by systematically studying their impact on the NW electrical and optical properties to realize a high-quality p-i-n heterostructure. The successful growth approaches are Te-dopant compensation to suppress the p-type nature of intrinsic GaAsSb segment, growth interruption for strain relaxation at the interface, decreased substrate temperature to enhance supersaturation and minimize the reservoir effect, higher bandgap compositions of the n-segment of the heterostructure relative to the intrinsic region for boosting the absorption, and the high-temperature ultra-high vacuumin situannealing to reduce the parasitic radial overgrowth. The efficacy of these methods is supported by enhanced photoluminescence (PL) emission, suppressed dark current in the heterostructure p-i-n NWs accompanied by increased rectification ratio, photosensitivity, and a reduced low-frequency noise level. The PD fabricated utilizing the optimized GaAsSb axial p-i-n NWs exhibited the longer wavelength cutoff at ∼1.1μm with a significantly higher responsivity of ∼120 A W-1(@-3 V bias) and a detectivity of 1.1 × 1013Jones operating at room temperature. Frequency and the bias independent capacitance in the pico-Farad (pF) range and substantially lower noise level at the reverse biased condition, show the prospects of p-i-n GaAsSb NWs PD for high-speed optoelectronic applications.

Abstract
In recent years, non-〈111〉-oriented semiconductor nanowires have attracted increasing interest in terms of fundamental research and promising applications due to their outstanding crystal quality and distinctive physical properties. Here, a comprehensive overview of recent advances in the study of non-〈111〉-oriented semiconductor nanowires is presented. We start by introducing various growth techniques for obtaining nanowires with certain orientations, for which the growth energetics and kinetics are discussed. Attention is then given to the physical properties of non-〈111〉 nanowires, as predicted by theoretical calculations or demonstrated experimentally. After that, we review the advantages and challenges of non-〈111〉 nanowires as building blocks for electronic and optoelectronic devices. Finally, we discuss the possible challenges and opportunities in the research field of non-〈111〉 semiconductor nanowires.

Abstract
Kinetic modeling of the formation of axial III-V nanowire heterostructures grown by the Au-catalyzed vapor-liquid-solid method is presented. The method is based on a combination of kinetic growth theory for different binaries at the liquid-solid interface and thermodynamics of ternary liquid and solid alloys. Non-stationary treatment of the compositional change obtained by swapping material fluxes allows us to compute the interfacial abruptness across nanowire heterostructures and leads to the following results. At high enough supersaturation in liquid, there is no segregation of dissimilar binaries in solid even for materials with strong interactions between III and V pairs, such as InGaAs. This leads to the suppression of the miscibility gaps by kinetic factors. Increasing the Au concentration widens the heterointerface at low Au content and narrows it at high Au content in a catalyst droplet. The model fits quite well the data on the compositional profiles across nanowire heterostructures based on both group III and group V interchange. Very sharp heterointerfaces in double of InAs/InP/InAs nanowire heterostructures is explained by a reduced reservoir effect due to low solubility of group V elements in liquid.

Abstract
Narrow bandgap InAs1-xSbx nanowires show broad prospects for applications in wide spectrum infrared detectors, high-performance transistors, and quantum computation. Realizing such applications requires a fine control of the composition and crystal structure of nanowires. However, the fabrication of large-composition-range pure-phase homogeneous InAs1-xSbx nanowires remains a huge challenge. Here, we first report the growth of large-composition-range stemless InAs1-xSbx nanowires (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.63) on Si (111) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy. We find that pure-phase InAs1-xSbx nanowires can be successfully obtained by controlling the antimony content x, nanowire diameter, and nanowire growth direction. Detailed energy dispersive spectrum data show that the antimony is uniformly distributed along the axial and radial directions of InAs1-xSbx nanowires and no spontaneous core-shell nanostructures form in the nanowires. On the basis of field-effect measurements, we confirm that InAs1-xSbx nanowires exhibit good conductivity and their mobilities can reach 4200 cm2 V-1 s-1 at 7 K. Our work lays the foundation for the development of InAs1-xSbx nanowire optoelectronic, electronic, and quantum devices.

Abstract
Engineering detection dynamics in nanoscale receivers that operate in the far infrared (frequencies in the range 0.1-10 THz) is a challenging task that, however, can open intriguing perspectives for targeted applications in quantum science, biomedicine, space science, tomography, security, process and quality control. Here, we exploited InAs nanowires (NWs) to engineer antenna-coupled THz photodetectors that operated as efficient bolometers or photo thermoelectric receivers at room temperature. We controlled the core detection mechanism by design, through the different architectures of an on-chip resonant antenna, or dynamically, by varying the NW carrier density through electrostatic gating. Noise equivalent powers as low as 670 pWHz-1/2 with 1 µs response time at 2.8 THz were reached.
