摘要：
We report on the Au-assisted vapour-liquid-solid (VLS) growth of GaAs/InxGa1-xAs/GaAs (0.2 <= x <= 1) axial double-heterostructure nanowires on GaAs (111) B substrates via the metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) technique. The influence of the indium (In) content in an Au particle on the morphology of nanowires is investigated systematically. A short period of pre-introduced In precursor before the growth of InxGa1-xAs segment, coupled with a group III precursor interruption, is conducive to obtaining symmetrical heterointerfaces as well as the desired In/Ga ratio in the InxGa1-xAs section. The nanowire morphology, such as kinking and tapering, are thought to be related to the In composition in the catalyst alloy as well as the VLS growth mechanism.
