Abstract
Using a kinetic lattice Monte Carlo model, the self-catalyzed growth of planar GaAs nanowires was analyzed. The nanowire growth via the vapor-liquid-crystal mechanism was considered. The effect of temperature and the catalyst droplet location on the morphology and growth direction of planar GaAs nanowires was studied. For GaAs(111)A and GaAs(111)B substrates, a temperature range corresponding to stable growth of planar GaAs nanowires was revealed. The special asymmetric arrangement of droplets allows the one-directional nanowire growth.
