Abstract:The growth mechanism of monolayer on the top facet of Ga-catalyzed GaAs and GaP nanowires is investigated. Within the framework of a theoretical model, the maximal monolayer coverage due to the material in the catalyst droplet, the nanowire growth rate and the content of group V atoms in the droplet are found depending on the growth conditions. The estimates of the phosphorus re-evaporation coefficient from neighboring nanowires and substrate are obtained by comparing the theoretical and experimental growth ra… Show more
