<p>Process for removing catalyst residues (2, 2', 2'', 2''') present on the surface of solid structures made of a first material (3) and obtained by catalytic growth, comprises: catalytic growth from the catalyst residues, of solid structures made of a second material (4); and selective removal of such solid structures made of a second material. Independent claims are included for: (1) a process-I for fabricating solid structures made of a first material (3) comprising: catalytic growth, from a catalyst, of the solid structures made of a first material (3); and eliminating catalyst residues (2, 2', 2'', 2''') present on the surface of solid structures by the process; and (2) the solid structure, preferably nano-wire, obtained by the process, where the structure is devoid of catalyst on its surface, preferably on its sides.</p> |
