摘要
A simple one-step thermal evaporation of CdSe powder using Si substrate at controlled conditions results in ultrauniform Si-core/CdSe-sheath nanocables. These nanocables are ≃80 nm in diameter and several tens of micrometers in length. Detailed microstructure and chemical composition analysis of the nanocables indicates that they are composed of a single crystalline Si (cubic) core and CdSe (hexagonal) sheath. The experimental evidence suggested that the Si nanowires can be directly grown from the Si substrate via an oxide-assisted growth mechanism and further served as templates for CdSe, resulting in nanocable heterostructures.
