Abstract

Ag colloidal nanoparticles are used as a catalyst for growth of GaAs nanowires by the molecular beam epitaxy on the Si(111) and GaAs(111)B substrate surfaces. The scanning electron microscopy measurements revealed that the nanowire formation occurs in different ways on different substrates, but the parameters of the synthesized nanowires open great prospects for their further use.
