Spontaneous Growth Of Nanostructures On Non-single Crystalline Surfaces

摘要

A method of forming nanostructures using catalyst-free epitaxial growth includes depositing a first layer of a non-single crystalline material on a support structure; heating the support structure and the first layer such that a combined layer is formed; and growing a nanostructure on the combined layer. A hetero-crystalline includes a support structure; a first layer of non-single crystalline material deposited on the support structure and combined with the support structure or a second layer to form a combined layer; and a nanostructure of a single crystalline material grown on the combined layer.
