Fundamental aspects to localize self-catalyzed III-V nanowires on silicon

The ability to place perfectly aligned vertical nanowires at chosen positions on a silicon substrate is an important challenge in device fabrication. Here, the authors propose a mechanism to explain self-catalyzed III-V nanowire growth on silicon, providing valuable insights for growing high yield n...
