  • Abstract
    We report on the Au-assisted growth of GaAs/InxGa1-xAs/GaAs axial double-heterostructure nanowires via metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) technique. The influence of indium content in Au particle on the morphology of nanowires was investigated systematically. The experimental results were thought to be related with the composition characteristic of the alloy catalyst as well as the Vapor-Liquid-Solid (VLS) growth mechanism.
