Silicon Nanowires
This document, created by Pennsylvania State University and hosted by the Nanotechnology Applications and Career Knowledge Network, serves as a guide for a laboratory activity where students "learn about growth of silicon nanowires using the metal-catalyzed vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) processes." The lab guide includes objectives, prerequisite training, an introduction to the Low Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition (LPCVD) ​system used in the lab, step-by-step directions to the lab activity itself, and post-lab questions to test student comprehension. In order to access and download this material, users must complete a free registration.
