Assali, S. (author), Lähnemann, J. (author), Vu, TTT (author), Jöns, K.D. (author), Gagliano, L (author), Verheijen, M. A. (author), Akopian, N. (author), Bakkers, E.P.A.M. (author), Haverkort, J. E.M. (author)One of the major challenges in the growth of quantum well and quantum dot heterostructures is the realization of atomically sharp interfaces. Nanowires provide a new opportunity to engineer the band structure as they facilitate the controlled switching of the crystal structure between the zinc-blende (ZB) and wurtzite (WZ) phases. Such a...journal article 2017

Dogan, I. (author), Kramer, N.J. (author), Westermann, R.H.J. (author), Dohnalova, K. (author), Smets, A.H.M. (author), Verheijen, M.A. (author), Greogorkiewicz, T. (author), Van de Sanden, M.C.M. (author)We demonstrate a method for synthesizing free standing silicon nanocrystals in an argon/silane gas mixture by using a remote expanding thermal plasma. Transmission electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy measurements reveal that the distribution has a bimodal shape consisting of two distinct groups of small and large silicon nanocrystals with...journal article 2013

Wang, J. (author), Plissard, S. (author), Hocevar, M. (author), Vu, T.T.T. (author), Zehender, T. (author), Immink, G.G.W. (author), Verheijen, M.A. (author), Haverkort, J. (author), Bakkers, E.P.A.M. (author)We investigate the growth of vertically standing [100] zincblende InP nanowire (NW) arrays on InP (100) substrates in the vapor-liquid-solid growth mode using low-pressure metal-organic vapor-phase epitaxy. Precise positioning of these NWs is demonstrated by electron beam lithography. The vertical NW yield can be controlled by different...journal article 2012
