摘要
We report on the electrical properties of Te-doped GaAs nanowires (NW) grown via the vapor-liquid-solid mechanism. Gold nanoparticles were used as growth catalysts and contacts for electrical measurements using a nanoprobe technique. Semi-log I-V curves show 6-8 decades of forward-voltage linearity giving an ideality factor of 1.25 +/- 0.06 and barrier height of 0.78 +/- 0.04 eV. When normalized to NW cross-sectional area, all curves overlapped consistent with an n-type carrier concentration (9 +/- 1) x 10(17) cm(-3) and a constant NW resistivity (2.5 +/- 0.5) x 10(-3) Omega cm. Raman spectroscopy indicated a small surface depletion width of less than 5 nm. (C) 2011 American Institute of Physics. [doi: 10.1063/1.3658633]
