Abstract
Undoped and B-doped silicon-based nanowires (SiNWs) were synthesized by vapor-liquid-solid growth, and SiNW devices using Au electrodes were prototyped using focused ion beam (FIB) processing. Needle-shaped thin SiNWs were formed at a substrate temperature between 1170 and 1313 °C. The average and minimum diameters of the B-doped SiNWs were 72 nm and 52 nm, respectively. According to the current-voltage characteristics, SiNW devices have ohmic properties, and the estimated resistivity of the undoped and B-doped SiNWs are about 3.8 × 103Ωcm and 1.7 × 103Ωcm, respectively.
