Kinetics of Si and Ge nanowires growth through electron beam evaporation

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Si and Ge have the same crystalline structure, and although Si-Au and Ge-Au binary alloys are thermodynamically similar (same phase diagram, with the eutectic temperature of about 360&#176;C), in this study, it is proved that Si and Ge nanowires (NWs) growth...
