Abstract:
PURPOSE: A method for fabricating twin-free single crystalline Ag nano-wire is provided to crystallographically make the surface using a vapor-phase transport process which does not use catalyst and organic/inorganic mold. CONSTITUTION: A method for fabricating twin-free single crystalline Ag nano-wire comprises the steps of: vaporizing Ag precursor and transferring the vaporized Ag to a mono crystal substrate through inert gas; forming Ag seeds with an epitaxial relation to the substrate on the mono crystal substrate, wherein the Ag seeds are composed of {001} and {111} planes; and preparing a single crystalline Ag nanowire including no two dimensional plane defects.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: A single-crystal twin-free noble metal nanowire and a manufacturing method thereof using noble metal halide are provided to control the orientation of the noble metal nanowire formed on a substrate by controlling the temperature of a precursor using the noble metal halide. CONSTITUTION: A manufacturing method of a single-crystal twin-free noble metal nanowire comprises the following steps: locating a noble metal halide as a precursor to the tip-end of a reactor and locating a mono crystal substrate on the rear side of the reactor; and heat processing the reactor from the tip-end to the rear side thereof under fixed pressure and inert gas, to form noble metal nanowires having an epitaxial relation with the substrate on the mono crystal substrate.
