Abstract
GaP–GaAsP segmented nanowires (NWs), with diameters ranging between 20 and 500 nm and lengths between 0.5 and 2 μm, were catalytically grown from Au particles on a GaAs (111)B substrate in a gas source molecular beam epitaxy system. The morphology of the NWs was either pencil-shaped with a tapered tip or rod-shaped with a constant diameter along the entire length. Stacking faults were observed for most NWs with diameters greater than 30 nm, but thinner ones tended to exhibit fewer defects. Moreover, stacking faults were more likely found in GaAsP than in GaP. The composition of the pencil NWs exhibited a core–shell structure at the interface region, and rod-shaped NWs resulted in planar and atomically abrupt heterointerfaces. A detailed growth mechanism is presented based on a layer-by-layer growth mode for the rod-shaped NWs and a step-flow growth mode for the tapered region of the pencil NWs.
