Abstract

In this letter, we report a method for the growth of copper silicide (Cu5Si) nanorods with a horizontal alignment via chemical vapor deposition. The Cu5Si nanorods with an oxygen-rich shell grew in the [110] direction of Si on a (001) Si substrate. A growth model that explains the formation mechanism of the horizontally aligned, polycrystalline nanorods is proposed.
