Abstract
Silicon (Si) nanowires in nanoporous anodic alumina membranes were synthesized using gold (Au) electrodeposition and vapor-liquid-solid growth at 500°C. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy showed that the nanowires consisted of Si core, oriented in 〈100〉 or 〈211〉 growth direction. Au terminated both ends of the growing wires which resulted in the formation of Au-Si-Au nanowires.
