Charge separation via strain in silicon nanowires.

Axial charge separation in small diameter, partially strained silicon nanowires is predicted from ab initio calculations with electrons and holes located in different ends of the wires. We show that this effect can be understood from the topologies of near-gap wave functions, and that it is enhanced by quantum confinement. The possibility of utilizing partial strain for charge separation at the...

Thermal conductance of thin silicon nanowires.

The thermal conductance of individual single crystalline silicon nanowires with diameters less than 30 nm has been measured from 20 to 100 K. The observed thermal conductance shows unusual linear temperature dependence at low temperatures, as opposed to the T3 dependence predicted by the conventional phonon transport model. In contrast to previous models, the present study suggests that phonon-...

Coherent single charge transport in molecular-scale silicon nanowires.

We report low-temperature electrical transport studies of chemically synthesized, molecular-scale silicon nanowires. Individual nanowires exhibit Coulomb blockade oscillations characteristic of charge addition to a single nanostructure on length scales up to at least 400 nm. Studies also demonstrate coherent charge transport through discrete single particle quantum levels extending across whole...

Surface charge sensitivity of silicon nanowires: size dependence.

Silicon nanowires of different widths were fabricated in silicon on insulator (SOI) material using conventional process technology combined with electron-beam lithography. The aim was to analyze the size dependence of the sensitivity of such nanowires for biomolecule detection and for other sensor applications. Results from electrical characterization of the nanowires show a threshold voltage i...

Molecular dynamics simulations of thermal transport in thin silicon nanowires

Silicon is one of the best known materials of our age, cheap and readily available, being the basic constituent of semiconductor electronics. It would therefore be highly desirable to broaden its utilization for, e.g. renewable energy applications. Recently, it has been proposed that Silicon may be engineered to be an efficient thermoelectric material for use in solid state devices[1, 2]. Altho...
