Article Synopsis
  • Indium phosphide (InP) nanowires exhibit a unique shape and transition between crystal phases (zinc blende and wurtzite) when grown under specific conditions using selective-area metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy (SA-MOVPE).
  • A growth model explains the tapering of these nanowires based on the angle and the ratio of zinc blende to wurtzite segments.
  • Changes in photoluminescence energy are linked to quantum confinement effects in the zinc blende regions of the mixed-phase structure.

We study the catalyst-free growth of InP nanowires using selective-area metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy (SA-MOVPE) and show that they undergo transition of crystal structures depending on the growth conditions. InP nanowires were grown on InP substrates where the mask for the template of the growth was defined. The nanowires were grown only in the opening region of the mask.
