Unraveling the Morphological Evolution and Etching Kinetics of Porous Silicon Nanowires During Metal-Assisted Chemical Etching
Many potential applications of porous silicon nanowires (SiNWs) fabricated with metal-assisted chemical etching are highly dependent on the precise control of morphology for device optimization. However, the effects of key etching parameters, such as the amount of deposited metal catalyst, HF-oxidant molar ratio (χ), and solvent concentration, on the morphology and etching kinetics of the SiNWs...
متن کاملCurved silicon nanowires with ribbon-like cross sections by metal-assisted chemical etching.
A generic process for the preparation of curved silicon nanowires (SiNWs) with ribbon-like cross sections was developed. The present synthetic approach is based on chemical etching of (100)-oriented silicon wafers in mixture solutions of HF and H(2)O(2) by using patterned thin gold films as catalyst and provides a unique opportunity for the fabrication of extended arrays of zigzag SiNWs, ultrat...
متن کاملFabrication and photocatalytic properties of silicon nanowires by metal-assisted chemical etching: effect of H2O2 concentration
In the current study, monocrystalline silicon nanowire arrays (SiNWs) were prepared through a metal-assisted chemical etching method of silicon wafers in an etching solution composed of HF and H2O2. Photoelectric properties of the monocrystalline SiNWs are improved greatly with the formation of the nanostructure on the silicon wafers. By controlling the hydrogen peroxide concentration in the et...
متن کاملAg-mediated charge transport during metal-assisted chemical etching of silicon nanowires.
The charge transport mechanism during metal-assisted chemical etching of Si nanowires with contiguous metal films has been investigated. The experiments give a better insight how the charges and reaction products can penetrate to the etching front. The formation of a layer of porous Si between the metal film and the bulk Si is a prerequisite for the etching process. The electronic holes (positi...
متن کاملPorosity control in metal-assisted chemical etching of degenerately doped silicon nanowires.
We report the fabrication of degenerately doped silicon (Si) nanowires of different aspect ratios using a simple, low-cost and effective technique that involves metal-assisted chemical etching (MacEtch) combined with soft lithography or thermal dewetting metal patterning. We demonstrate sub-micron diameter Si nanowire arrays with aspect ratios as high as 180:1, and present the challenges in pro...
