METHOD FOR PRODUCING CATALYST-FREE SINGLE CRYSTAL SILICON NANOWIRES, NANOWIRES PRODUCED BY THE METHOD AND NANODEVICE COMPRISING THE NANOWIRES

摘要

Disclosed herein is a method for producing catalyst-free single crystal silicon nanowires. According to the method, nanowires can be produced in a simple and economical manner without the use of any metal catalyst. In addition, impurities contained in a metal catalyst can be prevented from being introduced into the nanowires, contributing to an improvement in the electrical and optical properties of the nanowires. Also disclosed herein are nanowires produced by the method and nanodevice comprising the nanowires.
