Multispectral imaging with vertical silicon nanowires
Multispectral imaging is a powerful tool that extends the capabilities of the human eye. However, multispectral imaging systems generally are expensive and bulky, and multiple exposures are needed. Here, we report the demonstration of a compact multispectral imaging system that uses vertical silicon nanowires to realize a filter array. Multiple filter functions covering visible to near-infrared...
متن کاملHarnessing the Nano-optics of Silicon Nanowires for Multispectral Imaging
IEEE PHOTONICS SOCIETY NEWSLETTER 11 Abstract—Given the considerable interest that has existed for silicon nanowires lately, it is surprising how little attention has been generally paid to the dramatic influence that waveguiding and resonance phenomena can have upon their optical properties. This paper reviews recent work at Harvard University on the optical properties of silicon nanowires. We...
متن کاملMulticolored vertical silicon nanowires.
We demonstrate that vertical silicon nanowires take on a surprising variety of colors covering the entire visible spectrum, in marked contrast to the gray color of bulk silicon. This effect is readily observable by bright-field microscopy, or even to the naked eye. The reflection spectra of the nanowires each show a dip whose position depends on the nanowire radii. We compare the experimental d...
متن کاملThermal conductance calculations of silicon nanowires: comparison with diamond nanowires
: We present phonon thermal conductance calculations for silicon nanowires (SiNWs) with diameters ranging from 1 to 5 nm with and without vacancy defects by the non-equilibrium Green's function technique using the interatomic Tersoff-Brenner potentials. For the comparison, we also present phonon thermal conductance calculations for diamond nanowires. For two types of vacancy defects in the SiNW...
متن کاملFabrication of silicon nanowires
Pentagon-shaped silicon wires with linewidth around 300 nm are successfully fabricated by using the Si/SiGe epitaxy technique, reactive ion etching, and subsequent selective chemical etching. The nanowires are oxidized in wet O2 at 750 ◦C and 850 ◦C. The oxide and interface morphology are characterized by cross-sectional scanning electron microscope images. It is found that the oxidized nanowir...
