Abstract :
GaAs quantum wires (100*20 nm2) buried in AlAs layers have been successfully fabricated using metal organic molecular beam epitaxy (MOMBE) for the first time. The underlying growth mechanism is that, under appropriate As4 pressure in MOMBE, GaAs preferentially grows only on the sidewalls of the patterned
