Abstract
Kinetics of the main physical processes controlling the growth of nanowhiskers (NWs) via a sequence of vapor-liquid-solid phase transitions is considered. The roles of thermodynamics and kinetics of cluster nucleation in the initial stage of NW formation are studied. Approximate expressions for the NW length are obtained in the one-dimensional approximation. The influence of transfer processes in the gas phase on the growth of NW is evaluated.
