Optical and Crystal Structure Characterizations of Nanowires for Infrared Applications

abstract: Semiconductor nanowires (NWs) are one dimensional materials and have size quantization effect when the diameter is sufficiently small. They can serve as optical wave guides along the length direction and contain optically active gain at the same time. Due to these unique properties, NWs ar...
